And you claim that you do not see the words 'extremist' and 'radical' anywhere being used to reference to the camp of Hirsch / Weiss? If you say that again, I'm going to have to recommend that you get new glasses. Not meant to insult you, just a remark. --[[User:Eidah|Eidah]] 15:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Another inappropriate block (User_talk:129.78.64.106)

I request that the block time be reduced to something normal such as 24h rather than the inane time of 6 months. This has happened before with Wikipedia admins who indiscriminately block access to large portions of University users because only a few partake in valdalism (I cite User_talk:129.78.208.4#March 2007). Reduce the block time or unblock. NB: The University of Sydney is not a "primary or secondary" school.

Replied here -- Avi 14:56, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
If you're not going to take responsibility for your actions and at least discuss with me the length of the block, I really don't see what the point is me bothering any further.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Moo13 (talkcontribs) 18:31, July 1, 2007 (UTC)
Handled by Netsnipe. -- Avi 14:02, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, it hasn't. What sort of admin are you? You are supposed to at least know what you are doing and what your fellow admins are doing. Netsnipe has dealt in the previous instance of rash and inconsiderate adminship which I quoted you. Forget it; your sort of behaviour is a good reminder why I should stay away from this place in future.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Moo13 (talkcontribs) 00:48, July 6, 2007 (UTC)

Blocked?

Hello,

I'm a first time contributor, and notice you have blocked my IP address, although I am not sure why you have chosen to do this?

Regards,

Paul.

requesting help with parser function

Hi

I hope this is the right place to post this I'm a newbe.. I'm using a local installation of mediawiki and I use templates from wikipedia. the problem is that any template that includes parser function syntax such as #if is being rendered on the page as regular text.

It's as if the parser function syntax is not available in the wiki do I need to install/import something?

Might you be able to help please?

Thanks!

Medcab case

Hello, you were a participant in a Mediation Cabal case that has been re-listed as possibly needing a new mediator. The case is listed at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-04-20 Male genital mutilation. As some time has passed since there was last any activity on this case, I'm checking in to see if this is still an active dispute that requires mediation, and if so, to indicate that I am willing to take it up. Please let me know. Otherwise if this is no longer an active dispute I'll simply de-list the case, and thanks for your time. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 14:50, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

but do you really think it belongs in the lead? ابو علي (Abu Ali) 20:25, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to have an unfortunate misunderstanding of wikipedia's neutrality policy

Avraham, your message on my user page accusing me of a "lack of understanding" and "misperception" was insulting. Please try to be courteous in your future messages. If you want to discuss the Hamas article any further, post your messages on the Talk:Hamas page. Nbauman 21:50, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean, "consider yourself warned"? What are you threatening me with?
Once again, I request that if you have anything to discuss about the article, discuss it on my article page, not my personal talk page. Nbauman 16:39, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hamas is responsible for suicide attacks

Hello, I have some difficulties convincing other editors that writing "responsible for" is better than "best known". You did agree with me, so maybe you can revert to my version next time. Humus Sapiens gave me a 3RR warning, saying that I have already reverted 3 times. I checked and agree with him. However, I don't understand why Humus Sapiens and Jayjg don't like my edit, because it is not really a positive thing to write about Hamas. Anyway, I'm not going to edit that article today...

Also, all the references that Jayjg put in to support the "best known" sentence are still used to cite a simlar sentence later on in the article in my version (also in the current version). So, it is also not the case that by reverting to my version a lot of effort to find the references would go to waste. But even if that were the case, when we write articles, it is not a good argument to say:" I spent a lot of time to write this sentence, I don't wan to replace it". It often happens that one needs to throw away entire sections and start from scratch again. Count Iblis 14:27, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OR

Can you please stop adding original research to Ahmed Yassin? Wikipedia is clear that original research does not belong in any of its articles. Respond back on Talk:Ahmed Yassin.Bless sins 14:45, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Statements in the articles that have sources ipso facto cannot be OR. Please read articles before making unsubstantiated statememnts. -- Avi 14:49, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The sources you used are not in relation to the topic of the article, as WP:NOR states. Perhaps you need to re-read W:NOR. Anyways, please respond back on Talk:Ahmed Yassin, not my talk page. Thanks.Bless sins 14:51, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FYI

Not sure whether you were aware of this. Jakew 14:53, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks

For the reasonable compromise on the Hamas quote. Since everyone is always quick to warn/complain etc I think we should acknowledge listening and reasonableness too... Thanks --BozMo talk 18:12, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A Request for Mediation to which you are a party is now active, and your input is requested. Further information is available at the Mediation location, Wikipedia talk:Requests for mediation/Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Kind regards,

Confused messages at User talk:TipPt

Re this edit: [1] I'm confused as to who said "The dishonesty of those who have been vandalising the page is simply amazing." -- was it you? It's also not clear what page is being referred to -- but I don't need to know that. Anyway, it looks to me like the sort of message that does not tend to promote good feelings and cooperation among editors; I'd like to ask whoever said that to remember policies about civility etc. --Coppertwig 15:26, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: "Sourced categories"

Please stop making false statements. I have asked you nine times on Talk:Ahmed Yassin to provide me the source for his antisemitism. You have refused to do so every one of those nine times. As I have read the article many times (and searched for the words "antisemitism" and "anti-semitism"), I know that there is no indication in the article fo that word.Bless sins 04:28, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

I saw this edit, and I'm just wandering, what's nesting? SGGH speak! 23:28, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah I see. Thanks! SGGH speak! 14:37, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese apartheid

Hi Avi, I saw you'd (prematurely!) closed the AfD on Allegations of Chinese apartheid. No harm done, but I'd like to ask you to recuse yourself from closing this AfD. Given the very heavy involvement of members of WikiProject China, WikiProject Judaism, WikiProject Israel and WikiProject Palestine in the dispute, I think it would be asking for trouble for an admin member of one of those WikiProjects to close the AfD. I can certainly see it causing additional controversy, which is the last thing that's needed in this situation. I'll post a message to WP:AN asking a completely uninvolved admin to do the job. -- ChrisO 18:23, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request

I'd like to request that you reverse your move on Voßstraße since it violated our protection policy. I've started another thread on ANI. pschemp | talk 19:13, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm asking you again to fix your violation of policy. You clearly violated the protection policy where it says "Except in cases of clear vandalism, or issues with legal impact such as copyright or defamation, pages protected in an edit war are protected in whatever version they happen to be currently in." There is no exception listed there for MOS violations, and a naming dispute is neither vandalism nor a legal dispute. I will continue along the line of dispute resolution should you continue to ignore this. You policy violation is a separate issue from the naming dispute, I hope you can see that. pschemp | talk 23:17, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for being decent, I'm glad we could work things out. Certainly I feel much better now that no one can accuse you of moving the page to serve your own ends. While I never thought this was the case, removing the suggestion of that is helpful. pschemp | talk 00:56, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Request

Hi Avi,

Could I ask a favour? I don't need the full text, but could you please copy the text of the first sentence and footnote of Allegations of Chinese apartheid to my user talk? Alternatively, please insert it as a reply to this. Thanks. Jakew 13:57, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for cleaning up after me...

One of these days I'll get the hang of closing off debates with pretty borders, thanks for stepping up and stepping in! Carlossuarez46 20:48, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"“You want the dirt?” Zelig Reuven Katzenelbogen asks. He goes on to describe combat ultra-Orthodox–style: extremists grabbing the synagogue podium on Sabbath eve"

"Zelig Reuven Katzenelbogen says the extremists once doused him with water thrown from a second-story window"

"the elder rabbi’s son-in-law sides with the extremists and openly humiliated his father-in-law in synagogue"

"Another important Neturai Karta elder has remained with the moderates while his wife supports the radical faction."

"Biton attacks the extremists for their deep involvement"

"The counterclaim of the extremist camp is that their outreach efforts are aimed at saving Jewish lives."

"Still, Neturai Karta extremists have aligned themselves not with the “gentile” United States, but with America’s fiercest international opponents."

And you claim that you do not see the words 'extremist' and 'radical' anywhere being used to reference to the camp of Hirsch / Weiss? If you say that again, I'm going to have to recommend that you get new glasses. Not meant to insult you, just a remark. --Eidah 15:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
