Meir Ettinger

[edit]

Hey, I’d like to ask you if you could please take a look at the Meir Ettinger page. I saw you also edited there a bit. There were recently two IP edits that I think make no sense. I would revert them myself, but I am still not EC and am still dealing with fallout over this whenever I make even the mildest contribution protecting Israel-related pages from IP vandals. Slomo666 (talk) 21:11, 5 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Slomo666, thank you for asking. I have taken a look at the edits. The first one was very obvious, because it was not confirmed by the source. However, this text: "Ettinger has called for the demolition of what he and his associates deem ”secular” state of Israel and State of Palestine" versus "Ettinger has called for the demolition of the secular state of Israel and state of Palestine" - I don't know enough about this to be able to judge that edit.

True the latter edit is actually not that bad, but still a bit bold for an IP editor Slomo666 (talk) 09:06, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

[edit]
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
Crazy times apparently leads to a crazy Wikipedia, and there are not nearly enough editors taking an active stance against those who attempt to misuse it to promote disinformation, fringe ideas, and censor information, be it in subtle or direct ways.

From what I have seen, you seem to be trying your best to maintain the integrity of this website, even though it is an often difficult and thankless task, and for that I think you deserve a barnstar. :) TylerBurden (talk) 16:46, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so, so much!! It means very much to me. Thank you! Lova Falk (talk) 06:03, 9 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Emotionally focused therapy

[edit]

Hello! Our article about Emotionally focused therapy is in need of some TLC. Would you be so kind to take a look? Polygnotus (talk) 21:28, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry Polygnotus, but as a psychologist my main focus has always been assessment of children and adolescents, and not therapy. Furthermore, I stopped working eight years ago, and I am out of touch with psychology. I have taken a look, but I would need to dig down deeply into this, and I don't feel motivated to do so. Friendly, Lova Falk (talk) 06:53, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at your recent contribs, due to our open model Wikipedia will always be a battleground for such topics. It is best to avoid that stuff. Polygnotus (talk) 21:29, 18 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I feel for ip-editors who comment in good faith on the Talk page, only to see their comments either ignored or immediately deleted. I try to answer them, and it happens that I revert a delete. But in this case, deleting was correct. Lova Falk (talk) 06:53, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The further you get away from anything even remotely related to I/P and Trump, the more fun Wikipedia is. I think Wikipedians should form groups of people who outsource on-wiki disputes to eachother. Polygnotus (talk) 08:26, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Polygnotus I find the most interesting parts of Wikipedia to be those where it is not an encyclopedia but serves as a living document of contemporary history. And it is so good that we all have our favourite parts, that makes for a very rich collective project! Lova Falk (talk) 08:45, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Just like real life, the most interesting parts of Wikipedia are often not the most fun. Polygnotus (talk) 08:49, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Polygnotus, actually, honestly, for me it can be. I remember 13 June when Israel had bombed Iran. Without editing Wikipedia, I would have been distressed, but instead I worked best as I could on the article about those strikes, reading online outlets and thinking, is there something in here that I can add to the article. I remember this as a really good Wikipedia day. Lova Falk (talk) 08:58, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
