Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from :Indonesian occupation of East Timor ↗ into :Gerald Ford ↗. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing ↗ does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary ↗ at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking ↗ to the copied page, e.g., <code>copied content from <nowiki>page name ↗</nowiki>; see that page's history for attribution</code>. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia ↗. Thank you.  — Diannaa (talk) 20:55, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Verifiability

Please review Wikipedia:Verifiability ↗. This ↗ edit summary of yours indicates that you do not understand this core policy.

Introduction to contentious topics

{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = 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 <em>does <strong>not</strong> imply that there are any issues with your editing</em>.

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 an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

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

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia ↗;

comply with all applicable policies and guidelines ↗;

follow editorial and behavioural best practices;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

refrain from gaming the system ↗.

<p>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.</p><p>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 {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. </p>}} DatGuy<sup>Talk</sup><sub>Contribs ↗</sub> 13:15, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Sourcing and Format

Hello! Thank you for your recent additions to the Israeli war crimes ↗ article. Can you please ensure when importing material from other articles that you make a note of it in your edit summary, with the article they are from linked in the summary? Additionally, a couple of your edits were summarized as correcting typos, but you were changing sources. In some of these, I've had to track down the original source when the material stated in wiki text was not covered by the sources provided. Please be sure to double check that the content of your edits is covered by the sources provided. When you see a named reference source (ie, '<ref name="hrw"...' ), if the original source establishing that named reference isn't in the section you're importing it will become a cite error. When you find these, go back to the original article, hit edit, and search for wherever the original ref was that used that name, it only takes a minute. Also, please avoid leaving a space before the reference. If a sentence ends with a period, there shouldn't be a space "sentence. <ref" vs "sentence.<ref". Lastly, please be sure your edit summary accurately summarizes the changes you made. Thanks again! <span style="color:#Da7301;font-size:small;">entropyandvodka</span> | <span style="color:#0D47A1;font-size:small;">talk</span> 06:18, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at :Goyim Defense League ↗, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary ↗. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted ↗. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. <span style="color:#070">Doug Weller</span> talk 18:15, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

ADL unreliable? Did you read RSNP

It says:

There is consensus that outside of the topic of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, the ADL is a generally reliable source, including for topics related to hate groups and extremism in the U.S. There is no consensus that ADL must be attributed in all cases, but there is consensus that the labelling of organisations and individuals by the ADL (particularly as antisemitic) should be attributed. Some editors consider the ADL's opinion pieces not reliable, and that they should only be used with attribution. In the 2024 RfC, there was rough consensus that the hate symbol database is reliable for the existence of a symbol and for straightforward facts about it, but not reliable for more complex details, such as symbols' history. In-text attribution to the ADL may be advisable when it is cited in such cases. <span style="color:#070">Doug Weller</span> talk 18:18, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Revert to copy

Don't revert to copy unless there's a reason to do so. That just makes the page unstable. If you're trying to retrieve something from a previous state of the page, use the edit history. The entire history of the page is available in the page's edit history, and you can view any previous state of the page there (without reverting).

Please stop adding the axe attack section

Besides the fact you are using a blog and shouldn't, this is to recent and all "allegedly" and "suspect".. If there's a conviction, you can add it then with new sources. Thank you. <span style="color:#070">Doug Weller</span> talk 15:23, 22 February 2025 (UTC)

Misleading edit summaries - if the summary says you "added links" we expect wikilink, not a paragraph of text

Wikipedia and copyright

30px|link=|alt=Control copyright icon ↗ Hello Qhairun! Your additions to :Israeli support for Hamas ↗ have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted ↗ content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain ↗ or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible ↗ copyright license—''to request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission ↗''. While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright ↗ and plagiarism ↗ issues. Here are the key points:

'''Limited quotation:''' You may only copy or translate a ''small'' portion of a source. Any direct quotations ↗ must be enclosed in double quotation mark ↗s (") and properly cited using an inline citation ↗. More information is available on the non-free content page ↗. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners ↗.

'''Paraphrasing:''' Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information ''in your own words''. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues ↗ and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing ↗. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources ↗ as appropriate.

'''Image use guidelines:''' In most scenarios, only freely licensed ↗ or public domain ↗ images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons ↗.

Reversion

Hi, i noticed that you reverted my edit changing confirms to corroborates, was this unintentional in the process of changing quotes or did you have an issue with it? MetalBreaksAndBends (talk) 15:11, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

:Hi there! Oops, I'm deeply apologized for that. While I was editing for my edit, I noticed that it reverted your edit for unknown reasons. Again, I am deeply sorry for the unintentional error.

Please Help

Hi,

I have collected a large number of direct quotes from Israeli and Qatari officials on Israeli Support for Hamas. I have attempted to edit the Israeli Support for Hamas article to add the quotes that are not already mentioned, but the article is protected, and I am not allowed to make edits to it unless I edit 500 articles.

If you are interested in seeing the quotes, and adding some to the article, please send me your email, or I can paste them in this thread after your approval.

Thank you,

LeBron

Hey there! It looks like we need to talk about our edits on the LeBron page. The first thing I would say is that next time, please don't revert a revert, as this constitutes an edit war ↗. In my edit summary, I said I would be happy to discuss on the talk page, so the more appropriate action would have been to talk with me there, instead of reverting.

It looks like another editor has restored the page to its status quo (reverted your revert). Please don't revert again, as this could get you blocked from editing. Instead, please make a post on the talk page explaining the reasons for your edits. That way, other editors can weigh in, and we can come to an agreement on how to move forward.

Thanks, and I hope you have a good day. <b style="font-family:Arial"><span style="color:darkblue">OrdinaryOtter</span> <span style="color:darkblue">(talk)</span></b> 03:05, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to ''' living or recently deceased subjects of biographical content on Wikipedia articles''', a topic designated as '''''contentious ↗'''''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and <em>does <strong>not</strong> imply that there are any issues with your editing</em>.

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 an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

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

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia ↗;

comply with all applicable policies and guidelines ↗;

follow editorial and behavioural best practices;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

refrain from gaming the system ↗.

<p>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 <em>procedures</em>, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard ↗ or you may learn more about this contentious topic ↗. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. </p>}} fifteen thousand two hundred twenty four ↗ (talk) 04:43, 28 March 2026 (UTC)

Concerns regarding sourcing and neutrality in “List of massacres in Lebanon”

Hello,
I saw that you recently edited the article “List of massacres in Lebanon”, and I would like to bring your attention to ongoing issues with the article.

Over the past several weeks, a user (ArzLibnan) has made a large number of edits to the article that raise concerns about sourcing, neutrality, and classification (you may notice that most of the edits made to the article in the last month were made by this user).

Some particular examples are:

• The addition of events such as the 2006 Lebanon War and the 2020 Beirut port explosion as “massacres”, which appears inconsistent with how these events are described in reliable sources.

• Attribution of responsibility (assigning perpetrators and victims) without clear or reliable sourcing.

• Inclusion of multiple entries labeled as massacres that either lack citations or are supported by sources that do not explicitly describe them as such (for example, citations to the ICTJ report that do not appear to mention the specific incidents listed).

• Reclassification of broader conflicts or battles as massacres without clear justification.

Additionally, there appears to be a pattern of selective inclusion and removal of content that raises neutrality concerns; specifically, edits tend to emphasize incidents attributed to certain groups while omitting or removing well-sourced incidents involving others. This results in an imbalanced representation of events related to the Lebanese Civil War and related periods. While I cannot assess the editor’s intent, the overall editing pattern appears inconsistent with Wikipedia’s neutral point of view policy and may benefit from review.

Additionally, there appears to be a pattern of reverting edits without discussion, which may be hindering collaborative improvement of the article.

Given the relatively low level of activity on this page, these changes have largely gone unreviewed. I am concerned that the article may no longer meet Wikipedia’s standards for verifiability and neutrality.
I would appreciate it if you could take a look at the article and, if appropriate, help ensure that it adheres to Wikipedia’s content policies.

Thank you for your time. ~2026-22457-95 ↗ (talk) 05:20, 11 April 2026 (UTC)
