18 years on Misplaced Pages!

During December 2020, I celebrated the completion of eighteen years -- Chai -- on Misplaced Pages. Once again, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the entire Misplaced Pages team and family and my many fellow editors for giving me the opportunity to use my time productively by allowing me to contribute from my education, knowledge, experience and skills to this amazing project over eighteen very productive years. Thank you so much to everyone concerned and a special thank you to the many readers who utilize this encyclopedia. Feel free to leave a message at: User:IZAK/awards#18 years in 2020.

Question concerning use of CE instead of AD

User:IZAK, shalom. Recently, there was a discussion promoted by you (on WP Discussion Board) about whether we should be using CE for dates, rather than AD, in which I voiced my opinion. Do you have the link to that discussion, and what was the final resolution?Davidbena (talk) 16:16, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

Unattributed copying of text from Misplaced Pages articles

Hi there IZAK. After looking at the article mentioned above, History of the Jews in Artsakh, I noticed that the “Background” section is entirely copy-pasted from Republic of Artsakh. While copying from other articles is allowed, it is required that the source be attributed, preferably with a template such as {{copied}}. I've gone ahead and added the template on your behalf, but thought I might just notify you of this. For more information, I recommend reading Misplaced Pages:Plagiarism#Compatibly-licensed sources for more information. Have a good day! — Yours, Berrely • Contribs 19:13, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

Bris Milah POV

Dear IZAK,

Recently glanced at article Brit milah. It appears to be suffering from anti-Jewish and christian POV. I am involved in other projects right now, but this is Judaisms most important ritual and I believe you have the ability to improve this article!

Blessings,

Misplaced Pages Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?

Hello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Misplaced Pages Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.

For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page or my user page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done.

I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey before 8 August 2021.

Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.

Thanks so much,

Sarah Sanbar
