ChatGPT use

Hi! I noticed that you used a source recommended to you by ChatGPT in this edit https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=United_States_support_for_Iraq_during_the_Iran%E2%80%93Iraq_War&diff=1293076830&oldid=1292341582 - the link to the source has "source=chatgpt" in it, and WP:WikiProject AI Cleanup ↗ has a script that finds all instances of that across Wikipedia.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=insource%3A%22chatgpt.com%22&title=Special%3ASearch&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1&searchToken=3limdy0tws1er6ddanq9itz23 ↗ Anyway, I know it's a while since that edit, but I noticed that the source is an unpublished PDF by a scholar that may well be accurate but isn't peer-reviewed or published, so it's not reliable. You're probably aware of WP:NOLLM ↗ which is stricter now than last year - and yeah, ChatGPT often suggests sources that are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Thanks for all your contributions over the years! Lijil (talk) 08:22, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

:Hey, thank you for pointing that out. As the PDF isn't reliable, I'll go ahead and replace it with the actual polls it cites shortly. Skitash (talk) 13:12, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
::Thanks, awesome! Have a great day! Lijil (talk) 16:01, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Report concerning disruptive editing by a user

Hello,
I would like to report a user who appears to be making disruptive and unsourced edits to several articles related to Lebanon.
The username is "Greeko-Phoenician". The affected pages include:

• 2008 Lebanon conflict

• Cedar Revolution

• Battle of Anjar

• Habib Shartouni

• Syrian intervention in the Lebanese Civil War

I reverted some of the edits because they were unsourced or did not appear to comply with Wikipedia’s sourcing standards. However, the user continued re-adding the content, which seems to be developing into an edit war.
Could you please review the user’s recent edits and the page histories to determine whether administrative intervention or discussion may be appropriate?
Thank you. ~2026-30517-14 ↗ (talk) 18:14, 21 May 2026 (UTC)

Hi Skitash, i don't see you anymore on the articles you contributed so much to about the Arabs and Berbers of North Africa, and recently I've noticed that they've been under a lot of attackHanKim20 (talk) 01:51, 29 June 2026 (UTC)
