Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Thank you and although I'm already aware of these guideline, I appreciate the care and attention given to this topic. Especially considering the huge disproportions between the number of actual stakeholders, versus opinionated bystanders.

To whom or where do I raise the issue of anti-Israeli bias in many many articles pertaining to the conflict? Refael Ackermann (talk) 21:09, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

July 2025

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Shakshouka. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Skitash (talk) 18:00, 20 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Shakshouka, you may be blocked from editing. Skitash (talk) 18:08, 20 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Talk:Shakshouka. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. M.Bitton (talk) 18:24, 20 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent ARBECR violations

You have deliberately violated the ARBECR on more than one occasion and are now being extremely disruptive (see diff, diff and diff), I will ping ToBeFree and see what they have to say. M.Bitton (talk) 22:17, 20 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If encouraging users to follow the rules, and peruse the truth, I'm guilty as charged.

I [327 edits in 20 years] am not as experienced as my accuser [58,307 edits in 10 years] of Wikipedia rules and procedures. I so request unbiased discussion according WRT the Arbitration​Committee's decision on the Arab–Israeli conflict Refael Ackermann (talk) 22:46, 20 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
