I received a warning from Palestinian editors for editing the article "History of the name Palestine"
http://en.wikipedia.org/History_of_the_name_Palestine
After posting the section listed bellow I received this "official warning"
http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Tritomex
How I can protect my rights or contact the arbitration?

"==Etymology==

The name Palestine refers to a region of the eastern Mediterranean coast from the sea to the ] and from the southern Negev desert to the Galilee lake region in the north. The word itself derives from “Plesheth”, a name that appears frequently in the Bible and has come into English as “Philistine”. Plesheth, (root palash) was a general term meaning rolling or migratory. This referred to the Philistine’s invasion and conquest of the coast from the sea. The Philistines were not ] nor even ], they were most closely related to the ] originating from Asia Minor and Greek localities.The name of the Philistines in their own language is not known; however, the ] also relates them as the people of "Kaftor" (כפתור in Hebrew, see for example the Book of Jeremiah Chapter 47, Verse 4). "Kaftor" is not of Hebrew or Semitic origin, which supports the possibility that this word is similar to the name they called themselves.<ref>http://www.enotes.com/topic/Philistines#Etymology</ref>"

== Requiem for an Arab-Israeli conflict editor ==
] There is a requested move discussion at ] that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. ''']]''' 17:56, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

I have committed an act of ] that may cause my early retirement on Arab-Israeli conflict articles on Misplaced Pages. You may read (and perhaps comment) on the ongoing discussion ]. Before I go on, I must say a word about my victor, ]. In my roughly eight years of editing, I had not come into contact with IRISZOOM very much, but in our brief encounters with him, I've found him to be someone respectful of Misplaced Pages guidelines and ruthless in his pursuit of editors he disagrees with, even slightly. This is what makes him a great editor, indeed, a greater editor than I when it comes to disagreement on talk pages; for I have the former quality, but not the latter.

In my eight years, I've made Misplaced Pages a less anti-Semitic, more intellectually honest place. I can go on and on about the animated discussions I've had, most of which I won, but instead, I'd rather discuss my major contributions I've made to articles:
*Before I got to it, much of the ] article was a collection of anti-Israel half-truths cited only to a handful of sources. The article has been unstable for years, but its been much calmer in the past year or so. Its a great article.
*I've written and rewritten articles about ] dozens of times. Believe it or not, there are Hezbollah sympathizers out there who try to stop any material unsympathetic toward Hezbollah to appear on Misplaced Pages! Once Hezbollah began fighting for Assad's Syria, those people largely disappeared.
*Much of the ] article was written by yours truly.
*Much of the ] article was written by yours truly.
*I proved that ] was both unsuccessful and anti-Semitic.
*Much of the ] article was written by yours truly.
*I've helped to prove that ].
*I've told and retold the story of the 1948 war on numerous Misplaced Pages articles.
*I defended Israel (where possible) and exposed Hezbollah in the ] article and related articles.
*Much of the ] article was written by yours truly.
*The ] article used to have a lot of anti-Israel hogwash in it. Now its a peaceful and respectable article.

Thank you and you're welcome. --] (]) 18:42, 9 January 2014 (UTC)


:GHcool my friend. Before responding to this requiem, I must say something.
:I recently came across your name on Misplaced Pages, can't remember how and where. I then clicked on your user page and began reading its content. Despite the fact that we naturally have a lot in common, something very strange happened right after. On the the section "Views on Israel", what you wrote is exactly what I would've said if I were (and when I am) asked to answer those questions, and I felt as if I was reading my own thoughts and words there. I then began looking at your editing style and contributions, and again I could imagine they were my own.
:GHcool, I want to tell you that your contribution to English Misplaced Pages has done so much, really, and you have no idea how greatly it is appreciated by me and others who for various reasons aren't here to thank you too. I see that you're going to get topic banned for a year now. I would like to discuss some things with you on private if you will, but it's up to you - email me .

* To be totally honest an editor making statements like, ''"I proved that ] was both unsuccessful and anti-Semitic''" are showing that their involvement with these articles is entirely inconsistent with the policies and purposes of the encyclopaedia. Having said that I hope that you continue to contribute to the project, perhaps in areas in which you don't hold such strong convictions. ] (]) 09:02, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

::Dlv999, I doubt ''you'' should be saying such things to him. Even if you never officially stated it your opinion about this subject (the BDS and other related topics), your edits on Misplaced Pages are clearly anti-Israel. It's okay that GHcool expressed his (and many others') opinion - everyone's view is welcomed on Misplaced Pages talk pages, after all this is what they are for. -] (]) 19:19, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

== Questionable IP edits ==

An ] is changing a lot of articles with the edit summary "The international community considers Arabian settlements in Judea illegal under international law, but the Muslims dispute this". I don't think this is OK, but I am not familiar enough with the topic and Misplaced Pages's practice here to make a call myself. ] (]) 23:48, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
:No, it's not ok, it's a childish riposte to the boilerplate text that has been added to the introduction all Israeli settlement articles. ] ]] 00:01, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

== Need help with ]... ==

I added this film's page recently but am having trouble finding references other than IMDB and Amazon. It started life as a 170-minute, two-part TV miniseries and was edited down to a 114-minute "made for TV" (ha!) movie - viewable on YouTube. And 'yes,' it has a very big Israeli angle.

It's an excellent production, still topical after 19 years (espionage ethics, lack of; politics, ditto; nuclear warheads; Iran), and I'd like to see it through. I know it was broadcast on the IBA when it came out because I saw it. Would someone see if they can find anything about it in Hebrew media? I wouldn't know where to look. Any new references or suggestions would be highly appreciated. Cheers! ] ] 17:11, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
