Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

February 2020
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at List of wars involving Egypt. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Discretionary sanctions notice for the Arab-Israeli conflict
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
You must follow these page-specific restrictions until you have 500 edits and have been here 30 days
For the purposes of editing restrictions in the ARBPIA topic area, the "area of conflict" shall be defined as encompassing
- the entire set of articles whose topic relates to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly interpreted ("primary articles"), and
- edits relating to the Arab-Israeli conflict, to pages and discussions in all namespaces with the exception of userspace ("related content")
Also,
500/30 Rule: All IP editors, users with fewer than 500 edits, and users with less than 30 days' tenure are prohibited from editing content within the area of conflict. On primary articles, this prohibition is preferably to be enforced by use of extended confirmed protection (ECP) but this is not mandatory. On pages with related content, or on primary articles where ECP is not feasible, the 500/30 Rule may be enforced by other methods, including page protection, reverts, blocks, the use of pending changes, and appropriate edit filters. Reverts made solely to enforce the 500/30 Rule are not considered edit warring.
The sole exceptions to this prohibition are:
1. Editors who are not eligible to be extended-confirmed may use the Talk: namespace to post constructive comments and make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided they are not disruptive. Talk pages where disruption occurs may be managed by any of the methods noted in paragraph b). This exception does not apply to other internal project discussions such as AfDs, WikiProjects, RfCs, noticeboard discussions, etc.
2. Editors who are not eligible to be extended-confirmed may not create new articles, but administrators may exercise discretion when deciding how to enforce this remedy on article creations. Deletion of new articles created by editors who do not meet the criteria is permitted but not required. Doug Weller talk 17:11, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
3. One Revert Restriction (1RR): Each editor is limited to one revert per page per 24 hours on any edits made to content within the area of conflict. Reverts made to enforce the 500/30 Rule are exempt from the provisions of this motion. Also, the normal exemptions apply. Editors who violate this restriction may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator.
Note that this means your edits on such pages (which you aren't yet eligible to make) may be reverted by anyone at any time. These restrictions are stricter than those in most other areas because of the problems that we've had in this area. Doug Weller talk 17:11, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
Jackie Walker
You have already been notified that you are not permitted to edit articles relating to the Arab-Israeli conflict. This includes Jackie Walker (activist), as explained in the large notice on the article's talk page. Please cease from editing articles such as these until you meet the criteria. Failure to observe this restriction is likely to lead to sanctions on your account. RolandR (talk) 15:28, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
- This also applies to other articles you have edited today, such as Umm al-Fahm and Peel Commission. If you continue to ignore this restriction, you will be reported for Arbirtation Enforcement. RolandR (talk) 15:38, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
ARBPIA
If you continue to edit material related to the Arab-Israeli conflict you may be reported and blocked. Thank you. nableezy - 22:57, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
- Your edit at Falafel is covered under the prohibition on editing in the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area. Please self-revert or you may be reported and potentially blocked. nableezy - 22:48, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
AE
Please see here. nableezy - 23:37, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
May 2020
If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
ARBPIA (again)
Please confirm that you understand that you may not edit material related to the Arab-Israeli conflict on any article on Wikipeda. This is such an edit. I dont want to keep reporting you, but if you continue to ignore the restriction you really dont leave much of a choice here. nableezy - 18:54, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
- I'll be more careful, but if that article is under ARBPIA restrictions, shouldn't be under extended-confirmed protection? How am I supposed to know which articles I'm allowed to edit?--Aroma Stylish (talk) 01:00, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
- You know that you should not be editing material about the topic area at all, it does not matter whether or not a page is protected. If it is related, and assume it is if you have any doubt, you should not be editing it. nableezy - 02:33, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
What is vandalism
Take a note that this edit was not vandalism, as you claimed. The user explained that he removed the text because he thinks it is not verified in the cited source. That is not vandalism. See WP:VANDALISM to learn what is and what isn't vandalism. Calling new editors vandals without evidence is a kind of WP:BITING and is not allowed. Vanjagenije (talk) 14:59, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- You are right. It wasn't vandalism. I'm sorry. I'll pay more attention next time.--Aroma Stylish (talk) 18:26, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. HistoryofIran (talk) 18:19, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hello Aroma Stylish. You've been warned per the outcome of a complaint at the edit warring noticeboard. You may be blocked if you revert again at Anti-Iranian sentiment unless you get a prior consensus for your change on the article talk page. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 16:41, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
