RSN comment

Re this comment [3] at RSN, would you please redact the personal comment and confine yourself to the merits? Thanks in advance. Coretheapple (talk) 16:10, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Coretheapple: What personal comment are you referring to? Iskandar323 (talk) 16:35, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"You've rattled off this irrelevance about bias previously, and I didn't respond for that reason." Comment on content, not on the contributor. See Wikipedia:No personal attacks, second sentence. Coretheapple (talk) 18:25, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That comment clearly addresses your conduct, not your person – the specific item here being the reiterating of the same point about bias. Pointing out that bias is irrelevant to a reliability discussion – as repeatedly noted – is relevant to the merits in the discussion. Iskandar323 (talk) 21:46, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Commenting on his conduct is a personal comment. Stick to discussing the content not other editors. 2601:643:8000:1FE0:D4BA:552F:6F77:68B2 (talk) 19:45, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

International propagation of Salafism

Hi

The article should be moved to International propagation of Wahhabism because the article is about Saudi's interpretation. Centered sources are about wahhabism. If the article is about others interpretations, like Muslim Brotherhood or Asian group, it should be named International propagation of Islamism by Saudi Arabia. Panam2014 (talk) 23:21, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In a second time we should merge Salafism and Wahhabism, with Salafism becoming a desambiguation page. Panam2014 (talk) 23:22, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The work you do is valuable.

I saw many articles, in the wake of the ADL controversy, attempt to paint you as some sort of mastermind of a nefarious process, despite the clearly collaborative work on here. It seemed unfair coverage, and I wanted to give some encouragement that the work you do is appreciated. I hope you are doing well, and congrats on your works.

DYK for Adnan al-Bursh

On 3 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Adnan al-Bursh, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that orthopedic surgeon Adnan al-Bursh had also served as an advisor to the Palestine national football team before dying in an Israeli prison? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Adnan al-Bursh. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Adnan al-Bursh), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

@CambridgeBayWeather: Ok, thanks for reviewing this - but why have you returned it to the redirect that it was prior to the stub creation (which was page reviewed)? Even if you're taking the stance that this is an even-sided two-way dispute that needs resolving on talk, no one was trying to return it to being a simple redirect. Users were trying to make it a disambiguation page. Iskandar323 (talk) 14:59, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My only other option was to protect as it was when I found it. That was as a disambiguation page. It's hard to judge consensus through edit summaries and reverts. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 15:03, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Restoration?

This edit, what is that, a prior version of the page, it is a mass reversion of some description, or what? Selfstudier (talk) 14:25, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Selfstudier: Mass reversion or restoration – not sure which method was used, but same effect. Iskandar323 (talk) 17:05, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just thought that you had some idea of what was what, neither myself nor Levivich can easily figure it out, it even involves changing notelist etc. It has come up at AE, can you tell me at least whether all your recent edits were reverted? Selfstudier (talk) 17:08, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Selfstudier: I think all of my changes were reverted but then there are also some other changes woven in – I agree that it's hard to determine exactly what. I tried looking for a restore point myself and failed. Ultimately, it's not the sort of thing that can reasonably be done as a drive-by action without a more in-depth edit summary or talk page explanation. I itemize any removals and their edit summaries precisely to avoid the accusation of insufficient explanation, and so that individual removals can be challenged precisely as desired. But obviously that doesn't appeal to those in the edit war business. Iskandar323 (talk) 17:14, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:1RR at Majdal Shams attack

Hi; at topics related to the Israel-Arab conflict, editors are restricted to one revert every 24 hours: An editor must not perform more than one reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert.

You have made six reverts within a 24 hour period:

Please self-revert what you can to bring yourself back into compliance. BilledMammal (talk) 18:46, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BilledMammal: Only the last of those is plainly a revert. I believe that the others are merely edits. I would need more clarity on what you think I have reverted in any of the other edits (ideally with diffs). If I have restored any previously contested edit, I am unaware of it. With the exception of the last edit, which I did revert due to it introducing abjectly incorrect material, all of the other edits were simple reactions to and alterations of the material on page. The first two diffs that you cite are both paired with subsequent diffs in which the material was moved to a different section, as clear from the edit history. As for many of the other edits, altering wording is not a revert unless the wording has specifically been altered in the opposite direction previously. If you can show me what and where I have reverted something, I will undo it, but otherwise, I am loathe to undo the only thing that you have pointed to that is clearly a revert, because that would restore an error. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:05, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) The only one that I can see being debatable is the fifth. The rest are clearly reverts:

The first two you moved (per your own edit summary) the content from a more prominent location to a less prominent. Those are reverts, as you partially undid the edit of editor who added it by removing it from the location they added it to.

The third you replaced "attack" with "incident" and "rocket" with "projectile". Again, partially undoing the edit of another editor.

The fourth you replaced "rocket attack" with "undetermined" and again "rocket" with "projectile".

FYI, I’m not convinced you’ve read the source correctly; to me it reads like the UK is saying Hezbollah is responsible. BilledMammal (talk) 19:13, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BilledMammal: Moving material from one section to another one is not a revert – it's plainly a modification. Various parts of the third and fourth items (including some of the parts that you have mentioned) have already been overwritten, because this is a fast-paced current events page, but are you saying that another editor previously changed the wording from projectile to rocket? Because simply altering it, if it had not previously been altered in the other direction, is not a revert. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:21, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BilledMammal: In deference to your objection on the last edit, I've restored the reference and instead clarified the UK response more precisely. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:37, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hatting other editors comments

... such as you did here is not appropriate, and frankly I think that the entire section isn't appropriate either, for the reasons I indicated in the remarks that you collapsed. Coretheapple (talk) 21:57, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware of your opinions, obviously, since you're badgering the discussion. If you don't like it, feel free to ignore it. Hatting distractions is in fact entirely appropriate, but obviously not if other editors want to keep the distractions as distractions. Good job. Iskandar323 (talk) 22:02, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It may not be a bad idea to hat the entire section, to be frank. I think it would be a more useful and less antagonistic approach to make the points you wish to make within the appropriate discussions, after an editor has made an argument or an edit that you feel is contrary to policy, rather than to create an entire section in the course of which you make ad hominem comments about the supposed shortcomings of other editors. Coretheapple (talk) 22:12, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not terribly impressed with your behavior at that talk page if I'm honest. How about we all cool down a bit, there is an RFC to be run and all this other stuff is just a distraction. Selfstudier (talk) 22:15, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First you make an ad hominem comment, and then you say "let's all cool down a bit." I liked the second comment better than the first. Coretheapple (talk) 22:24, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sometime stating their impression of a behaviour is also not an ad hominem, unless it contains an aspersion. I'm also not impressed with the time-wasting circular discussions. Iskandar323 (talk) 22:44, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't made ad hominems thanks. have criticised behaviours, not editors. I started a new discussion precisely because a prior discussion was going around in circles due to the abject ignoring of our guidelines. Iskandar323 (talk) 22:40, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MaskedSinger: To be clear, this is a community-based encyclopedia-building project in which there is no abject right to non-interaction short of requesting that users avoid your user page, or seeking an interaction ban. On the contrary, rather obviously, if you post on someone's talk page, they are liable to ping you back. You don't have to post here, and there is no small irony in asking others to cease and desist from interacting with you while repeatedly posting on their talk page, especially regarding meritless complaints that have nothing to do with the behavioural guidelines.

Anti-Muslim hatred and Islamophobia

@Iskandar323 Hello.

I wanted to know your thoughts on having seperate pages for "Islamophobia" and "Anti-Muslim sentiment".

While the term "Islamophobia" has its linguistic origins in France during 1910s, the term only became widespread after the end of the Cold War. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the right-wing forces in the West began spreading Islamophobic hysteria across the world. The Christian right in the United States played a central role in setting up global networks of Islamophobic media and political fronts. War-hawks in the US government like the neo-cons disseminated Islamophobic propaganda to advance their political and foreign policy agendas.

Contemporary Islamophobia is a form of anti-Muslim hatred, but it is not the only form. Anti-Muslim hatred is far older, and goes back as early as 7th century C.E., when Prophet Muhammad and his companions were persecuted by Qurayshi chieftains. Later, medieval Christian states in Europe developed a vicious form of anti-Muslim hatred, which resulted in persecution of Muslims through inquisitions and in the eruption of several deadly wars of aggression such as crusades.

Another form of anti-Muslim hatred emerged during the 18th and 19th centuries, when European empires began colonizing Muslim-majority lands in Asia and Africa. The Zionist colonial movement (which was influenced by European fascism) in Palestine was ideologically driven by anti-Arab and anti-Muslim hatred.

The phenomenon of contemporary Islamophobia, which is prevelant in the West, is another form of anti-Muslim hatred. Islamophobic propagandists attempt to rationalise their long-standing hatred and xenophobia in front of the wider society. Thus, Islamophobic hysteria results in the inflammation of already existing anti-Muslim prejudices. For example, currently the state of Israel is attempting to rationalise its anti-Muslim and anti-Arab hatred through Islamophobic propaganda.

Currently, the "Islamophobia" page doesnt explain about anti-Muslim hatred before the past 4-5 decades, and is focused on contemporary events. My proposal is that "Islamophobia" and "anti-Muslim sentiment" should have two seperate pages. Such an arrangement would give better content clarity and accuracy. History of anti-Muslim hatred can be explored academically in the "anti-Muslim sentiment" page with proper context.

(I am a bit busy currently and intend to do these improvements sometime later, when I have spare time. This obviously requires research and thorough reading of academic works and history books.)

Do you have any suggestions for improvement? Shadowwarrior8 (talk) 19:05, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Shadowwarrior8: Historical persecution tends to falls under historical persecution pages, here: Persecution of Muslims, which probably adequately covers everything ancient through medieval. In this period, hatred of other religions was pretty common and par for the course in most religions, so the more notable subject matter is clear cases of tangible persecution. The possible scope I see for "Anti-Muslim sentiment" would be everything modern or post-enlightenment, but pre- the neologism of Islamophobia, and then everything discussed in sources after without the neologism.

Israeli apartheid and dispute resolution efforts

Hi. I'm preparing a presentation for the upcoming WikiConference North America about disputes and dispute resolution efforts. Thought I might use Israeli apartheid as an example of a highly disputed article. I'm contacting you because you are among the most active current editors there. Do you happen to know of any summaries or descriptions, in WP or otherwise, of the history of the disputes and dispute resolution efforts?

I'm also curious about your perspective on I-P dispute resolution efforts, especially in relation to the Israel apartheid article. What's your view of ARB sanctions, the role of WikiProjects (e.g., Palestine, Israel, WikiProject Israel Palestine Collaboration) or RfC and so on -- what has been effective or ineffective, worth trying, or examples of resolution progress?

Notice of Arbitration Enforcement noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a report involving you at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement regarding a possible violation of an Arbitration Committee decision. The thread is Iskandar323. Thank you.

Arbitration motions regarding Palestine-Israel articles

The Arbitration Committee has resolved by motion that:

Motion 1: Appeals only to ArbCom

When imposing a contentious topic restriction under the Arab-Israeli conflict contentious topic, an uninvolved administrator may require that appeals be heard only by the Arbitration Committee. In such cases, the committee will hear appeals at ARCA according to the community review standard. A rough consensus of arbitrators will be required to overturn or amend the sanction.

Motion 2b: Word limits

Uninvolved administrators may impose word limits on all participants in a discussion, or on individual editors across all discussions, within the area of conflict. These word limits are designated as part of the standard set of restrictions within the Arab-Israeli conflict contentious topic. These restrictions must be logged and may be appealed in the same way as all contentious topic restrictions.

Motion 2c: Word limits

All participants in formal discussions (RfCs, RMs, etc) within the area of conflict are urged to keep their comments concise, and are limited to 1,000 words per discussion. This motion will sunset two years from the date of its passage.

Motion 5: PIA5 Case

Following a request at WP:ARCA, the Arbitration Committee directs its clerks to open a case to examine the interaction of specific editors in the WP:PIA topic area. Subject to amendment by the drafting arbitrators, the following rules will govern the case:

The case title will be Palestine-Israel articles 5.

Aoidh will be the initial drafter
The case will progress at the usual time table, unless additional parties are added or the complexity of the case warrants additional time for drafting a proposed decision, in which case the drafters may choose to extend the timeline.
All case pages are to be semi-protected.
Private evidence will be accepted. Any case submissions involving non-public information, including off-site accounts, should be directed to the Arbitration Committee by email to Arbcom-enwikimedia.org. Any links to the English Wikipedia submitted as part of private evidence will be aggregated and posted on the evidence page. Any private evidence that is used to support a proposal (a finding of fact or remedy) or is otherwise deemed relevant to the case will be provided to affected parties when possible (evidence of off-wiki harassment may not be shared). Affected parties will be given an opportunity to respond.

Addendum

In passing motion #5 to open a Palestine-Israel articles 5 case, the Committee has appointed three drafters: Aoidh, HJ Mitchell, and CaptainEek. The drafters have resolved that the case will open on November 30. The delay will allow the Committee time to resolve a related private matter, and allow for both outgoing and incoming Arbitrators to vote on the case. The drafters have changed the party list to the following individuals:

The drafters reserve the right to amend the list of parties if necessary. The drafters anticipate that the case will include a two week evidence phase, a one week workshop phase, and a two week proposed decision phase.

The related Arbitration enforcement referral: Nableezy et al request has been folded into this case. Evidence from the related private matter, as alluded to in the Covert canvassing and proxying in the Israel-Arab conflict topic area case request, will be examined prior to the start of the case, and resolved separately.

See my post on the Talk page, and if you have insight into possibly reviving the project or have any thoughts about it, feel free to comment. Thanks!

Palestine-Israel articles 5 updates

You are receiving this message because you are on the update list for Palestine-Israel articles 5. The drafters note that the scope of the case was somewhat unclear, and clarify that the scope is The interaction of named parties in the WP:PIA topic area and examination of the WP:AE process that led to two referrals to WP:ARCA. Because this was unclear, two changes are being made:

First, the Committee will accept submissions for new parties for the next three days, until 23:59, 10 December 2024 (UTC). Anyone who wishes to suggest a party to the case may do so by creating a new section on the evidence talk page, providing a reason with WP:DIFFS as to why the user should be added, and notifying the user. After the three-day period ends, no further submission of parties will be considered except in exceptional circumstances. Because the Committee only hears disputes that have failed to be resolved by the usual means, proposed parties should have been recently taken to AE/AN/ANI, and either not sanctioned, or incompletely sanctioned. If a proposed party has not been taken to AE/AN/ANI, evidence is needed as to why such an attempt would have been ineffective.

Second, the evidence phase has been extended by a week, and will now close at 23:59, 21 December 2024 (UTC). For the Arbitration Committee, House Blaster (talk • he/they) 03:20, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
