Wow, that's shocking behavior, someone creating the 'Wake Up Call (Maroon 5 song)' article. SPI time methinks. I'll file one a bit later. Thanks for the data. Sean.hoyland - talk 01:48, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Ah, didn't notice those bits. Thanks. Sean.hoyland - talk 04:29, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Also, any thoughts on whether (the most wonderful blog in the world) is an RS. Sean.hoyland - talk 16:27, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Chill son, that site is useful, best to keep it private. nableezy - 18:22, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Good lord, I just found out that I was a "Palestinian-Arab in Europe", part of the ‘Radical Arab-Islamic Lobby’! Lol! Not bad, for an old Lutheran gal, whose ancestors are 100% Scandinavian, (genealogy being one of my hobbies)  ;) Cheers, Huldra (talk) 13:55, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Or so you say, Hussam... Zero 16:43, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Well, I certainly enjoyed reading it. The concept itself is great. The implementation is slightly ruined by the blogger apparently suffering from some kind of mental illness. Sean.hoyland - talk 02:24, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Bard and Deir Yassin

Hey Nab how r u? As for Bard, I don't see how you can attack him while leaving the likes of Ilan Pappe (who represents the extreme left of Israel and advocates its demise), Daniel McGowan of Counterpunch and Rashid Khalidi (who never met an Israel hater he didn't like), unscathed. It's a little hypocritical. Respectfully--Jiujitsuguy (talk) 04:58, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

I dont think I advocated using Counterpunch as a source, but as to Pappe and Khalidi. Those are two university professors who have written works published by academic presses, Khalidi is editor of the Journal of Palestine Studies which is published by the University of California Press. He has also been published by Columbia University Press and Cambridge University Press. There are things by Pappe that I would not use as a RS, but the things that he has had published by such publishers as Cambridge University Press is fine. You give me something from Bard that is published by a respected academic publisher fine, but Myths and Facts aint that. nableezy - 06:16, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

I did not know that you had started a report before I saw it after I had pressed "save". I will make a habit of stalking you in the future!, Cheers, Huldra (talk) 21:28, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Leave us alone

It's bad enough that you Chicagoans come up here and beat us at our national sport. But you could at least leave us our national pasttimes like poutine eating. I don't want to hear about some Illinoisian pot-smoking champion coming up here. --JGGardiner (talk) 21:44, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

I hope Montreal pulls it off, nothing would satisfy me more than beating another Canadian team, actually, scratch that, the Canadian team. nableezy - 22:01, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to barge in, but are you guys talking about a sport? Something people actually watch? Cause I'm drawing a blank. Oh, and Nab, was wondering: how do you do that nifty page notice that pops up when one edits your talk page? I want one. IronDuke 22:10, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Sort of, something close to football (soccer, or in my country just "ball") on ice. JGG wouldnt say "a" sport, it is "the" sport to his fellow Cannukistanis. For the edit notice, edit this page, whatever you put there, including a template or anything else you want, will show up when somebody edits the page. nableezy - 22:15, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Oh, ok, thanks. I thought their national support was curling or hurling or something. I need to get out more. IronDuke 22:27, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Deir Yassin, Bard and stuff

Hello Nab. Though we're on opposite sides of the divide and represent opposing views, we have, in the past set aside our differences and worked together toward compromise. I have left a conciliatory message on the discussion page and request that you take a look and offer some suggestions. Respectfully,--Jiujitsuguy (talk) 15:54, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

sure. nableezy - 15:58, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Judging from ur comment on the discussion page, I see u have zero interest in compromising. I thought more of you Nab.--Jiujitsuguy (talk) 19:12, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Im sorry to disappoint, but I dont see how compiling a list of high quality sources is a problem. nableezy - 19:16, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Notification: General sanctions and 1RR restriction on Richard Goldstone

As a result of an arbitration case, the Arbitration Committee has acknowledged long-term and persistent problems in the editing of articles related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, broadly understood. As a result, the Committee has enacted broad editing restrictions, described here and below.

• Any uninvolved administrator may, on his or her own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict if, despite being warned, that editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process.
• The sanctions imposed may include blocks of up to one year in length; bans from editing any page or set of pages within the area of conflict; bans on any editing related to the topic or its closely related topics; restrictions on reverts or other specified behaviors; or any other measures which the imposing administrator believes are reasonably necessary to ensure the smooth functioning of the project.
• Prior to any sanctions being imposed, the editor in question shall be given a warning with a link to this decision; and, where appropriate, should be counseled on specific steps that he or she can take to improve his or her editing in accordance with relevant policies and guidelines.
• Discretionary sanctions imposed under the provisions of this decision may be appealed to the imposing administrator, the appropriate administrators' noticeboard (currently WP:AE), or the Committee.

These editing restrictions may be applied to any editor for cause, provided the editor has been previously informed of the case. This message is to so inform you. This message does not necessarily mean that your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions.

Generally, the next step, if an administrator feels your conduct on pages in this topic area is disruptive, would be a warning, to be followed by the imposition of sanctions (although in cases of serious disruption, the warning may be omitted). Hopefully no such action will be necessary.

This notice is only effective if given by an administrator and logged here.

• In relation to the above, you are informed that the Richard Goldstone article is under a blanket 1RR restriction and violations of this restriction will result in escalating blocks and/or topic/page bans. Thank you for your cooperation. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:32, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

All right. Though I think you should make clear whether or not the imposed 1RR has a BLP exemption. nableezy - 21:34, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
