Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Byblos Bank logo.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

Thank you for uploading File:مصرف البحر المتوسط.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

@Vanderwaalforces It's ridiculous. There is not much information on the web about this village. But it exists!!!! and it should be as a article!!!. Look at the French Wikipedia and the Arabic Wikipedia.EnfantDeLaVille (talk) 08:00, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces I added Google Maps as a source. In order to prove that such a village exists in reality. But this step doesn't seem right to me=EnfantDeLaVille (talk) 08:06, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@EnfantDeLaVille let me jump in the conversation. I saw you used libandata.org for your newly created page Bqennaya, I would suggest using this source here as well. Google maps is not considered a reliable source. Broc (talk) 13:05, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dan arndt was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

• in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
• reliable
• secondary
• independent of the subject
  

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Fails WP:GEOLAND - needs more reliable source then Google maps

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Bauchrieh and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Good afternoon,

I have partially reverted your last edit on the 2024 Lebanon pager explosions. It's not that I didn't agree with your edits, but there were some prior discussions which had resulted in the text as it was and which I think you missed. The key reasons for editing the text are:

1. Mossad is already described/linked in opening of lede, so doesn't need this again in same section. WP says to link the first time a topic is mentioned in a section and not again. The image and infobox makes it look like this is in a new section, but it's not.

2. As per a couple of edits before yours, an editor pointed out that we should reinstate the WP:OBVIOUS that Hezbollah wasn't aware of the attacks beforehand. Personally, I think it's not needed, but that editor was right in that we should assume people coming into the subject have no prior knowledge. So I have reinstated that text because it had consensus.

3. The lede should reflect the whole article, including the Legality and Reactions sections. In those sections, the judgment that the attacks constitute "war crimes" is very common and the accusations of "terrorism" are no longer WP:FRINGE (note that spokespersons from the UN, EU, Belgium, CIA and Lemkin Institute have all made such statements now). That portion of the text also had prior consensus over multiple edits, which means people were happy with it.*

However, this is a fast-changing situation and the consensus might be changing with it, so if you'd like to discuss any of these issues on the talk page, I'd be happy to join you in trying to establish a new consensus. Please give me a ping if you do.

*As well as via direct discussion, consensus can be built over sequential edits. So, if multiple people tweak a sentence and then ultimately arrive at a version that doesn't get changed for a while, then that sentence is presumed to have consensus. Rather than removing any wording completely, the best thing to do is reword it slightly and see if anyone reverts or modifies your suggestion. Lewisguile (talk) 11:16, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• I also came here to express concern with this edit. How can you say the material is not lead material when there's an entire section in the article on this topic? VR _{(Please ping on reply)} 14:53, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Thanks for that, @Vice regent. I hadn't noticed that before. I think, at present, the wording has ended up being better (and is actually broader) than the text which was initially removed, although @EnfantDeLaVille may want to (re-)read the MOS on what a lede does.

  It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking it should be free of detail such as reactions, but it has to balance the needs of providing an overview against those of achieving (relative) brevity. Lewisguile (talk) 15:51, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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 does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

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 special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

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

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

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.

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 {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Which one would you prefer putting in the article? TwistedAxe [contact] 12:09, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know, I don't speak the language, I guess that's in Hebrew? EnfantDeLaVille (talk) 12:11, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's Hebrew. I spoke to a friend and he said I should put "Sehder HaDash". I think we can put that one instead in that case. TwistedAxe [contact] 12:17, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Twistedaxe as a Hebrew speaker I can say its "Seder Hasdash". "Seder" means order and "Hadash" means new. "HaDash" with large D is wrong Galamore (talk) 12:22, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per this AE report, you are formally warned that communication is necessary and further failures to communicate about your edits may result in sanctions. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:46, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello EnfantDeLaVille, please read through the link above and use edit summaries for all article edits, especially reverts. This is something I’m working on to improve on myself. starship.paint (RUN) 00:24, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Please note that I have already pinged you twice at Talk:1982_Lebanon_War#Lede and still waiting for a response regarding your reverts. Makeandtoss (talk) 09:21, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I already answered you there. I don't see what else you want me to say EnfantDeLaVille (talk) 09:51, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You only answered the second question relating to roles in the massacre, but not the first question relating to why background information has been moved up to opening paragraph. I get that you do not oppose restoration of previous edits of both issues? Makeandtoss (talk) 10:03, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do oppose the restoration of 'facilitating' if it doesn't reflect the sources. I also thing the new framing you used for background is not neutral. EnfantDeLaVille (talk) 10:11, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like you still have arguments to make, so please, again, respond to the article's talk page so other editors can chime in; I have added two sources to address your concerns there. Makeandtoss (talk) 12:42, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a minor edit. Sure, changing "Lebanese Parliament, while its paramilitary wing is the Jihad Council" to "[[Parliament of Lebanon|Lebanese Parliament]], while its paramilitary wing is the [[Jihad Council]]" is indeed a minor edit and matches your edit summary well. But removing "an organization that provides social welfare and religious education services" make your edit no longer a minor edit.VR _{(Please ping on reply)} 14:52, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• 13:27, September 24, 2024 you moved Hezbollah's terrorist status to the first paragraph.
• Your edit is reverted and Makeantoss starts a discussion, making their objections known. (11:59, 26 September 2024).
• 12:44, September 28, 2024 you revert and restore that change. You make no attempt to discuss on the talk page.
• I join the discussion (14:15, 28 September 2024) and object to adding terrorist in the first paragraph.
• 13:58, October 10, 2024, you again revert and restore that change. You still haven't made any attempt to justify your changes on talk.

I realize no one has pinged you to the exact discussion, but you have a responsibility to discuss your reverts even if you haven't been pinged. Also @ScottishFinnishRadish:. 15:15, 10 October 2024 (UTC) VR _{(Please ping on reply)} 15:15, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The following topic ban now applies to you:

You are topic banned from the Arab/Israel conflict, broadly construed, for 90 days.

You have been sanctioned for slow edit warring and failure to communicate.

This topic ban is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles#Final decision and, if applicable, the contentious topics procedure. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. Please read WP:TBAN to understand what a topic ban is. If you do not comply with this topic ban, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything above is unclear to you. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:27, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ScottishFinnishRadish, with all due respect, this topic ban is highly disproportionate compared to recent ones. DMH223344, who has previously been warned for actual edit warring and violating 1RR, today received only a one-week ban from editing on Zionism after violation 1RR again. But here, you've issued a 90-day topic ban to a new editor with no prior infractions. This imbalance in sanctions should be reconsidered if we aim to apply penalties fairly. The asymmetry here is glaring. ABHammad (talk) 18:30, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

One week pblock for a 1rr violation is fairly standard. This topic ban was for long term edit warring compounded with a lack of discussion, which is a more severe violation, especially after a formal warning from AE. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:24, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
