An anon user with an ip address of 194.126.21.5 signed as SoxBot labeled my edit to the Antoine Zahra page as vandalism while i only reverted BS that was copy pasted from a BS website and the info contradicts with a wikipedia policy.« Hiram111^{ΔTalK Δ} 23:46, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Motto of the day

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 02:48, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Your references may contain valid information, but as I see it the references that have been put previously by previous editors also contain valid information, there is nothing fabricated, everything has been done properly. It's your point of view that the information is fabricated, not mine or of the editors who entered this information months ago.89.216.236.45 (talk) 16:52, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

I have left most of your setences along with your references in the article but have also reinserted some of those old ones along with the old sentences. And have also rewritten some of the text. Those old sentences may be fabrication to you but they are backed up by valid references and you just can not remove them like that.

Kharsag

Hello Hiram.

I see you are interested in ancient civilizations and abrahamic religions and Lebanon. I think we have some things in common here! I could really use your help providing the world with adequate information to show it that the real Garden of Eden was the centre of the Neolithic Revolution in a place called Kharsag that's better known to you as the Rashaya South Basin between Rashaya and Kfar Qouq in Lebanon.

Thanks for your work on the Epistles of Wisdom.

I am currently embarking on a project to cover as many Lebanese archaeological sites as possible in order to create a new category and page banner about them. I'd be very grateful if you could add the correct arabic and names to them all and check I haven't made mistakes such as the 'second volume' one!

Sites I have completed so far include:

Archaeological Sites in Lebanon

• Neba'a Faour - DYK? Award Winner
• Nachcharini
• Jabal es Saaïdé
• Kaukaba Station
• Moukhtara
• Ras El Kelb
• Hashbai
• Ard Tlaili
• Labweh

An there are lots more coming...check my user page for further details.

Hello there! My name is bassem, I'm Lebanese too. I'm an editor and an admin on Arabic Wikipedia. I was checking out other Lebanese active on other Wikipedia projects and i came across your page. we are currently working on creating a user group called "wiki Levant", a group that combines users from the 4 Levant countries (Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, and Jordan). We would certainly love to have as many people of Levantine origins, or Levantines living abroad, in our user group. we could benefit from your ideas and thoughts especially that you are exposed to (or part of) another culture, and on the other hand you'll have some connection to your roots and your mother language.

So what do you think? would like to participate with us? please let me know what you think. If you wish you can email me and we'll talk more. Best--باسم (talk) 19:25, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 04:49, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
