Nomination of List of notable former Orthodox Jews for deletion

edit
 

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of notable former Orthodox Jews is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of notable former Orthodox Jews until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Sir Joseph (talk) 02:27, 30 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (  or  ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 04:49, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

I hope you are aware

I hope you are aware of WP:OWNTALK: "The removal of a warning is taken as evidence that the warning has been read by the user. (Many new users believe they can hide critical comments by deleting them. This is not true: Such comments can always be retrieved from the page history)."

Dispute resolution

edit

Hi. Here's a little free advice. Stop edit-warring, even though you believe you're right. Stop wasting your time reporting other editors to various noticeboards, because it's going to blow up in your face. See WP:Boomerang.

Instead, use dispute resolution. 66.87.117.118 (talk) 20:16, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

This is called retaliation: Wikipedia:Civility Lokshin kugel (talk) 21:20, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
This is not retaliation. To be honest, I don't particularly like Debresser, and he loathes me. It was intended as friendly advice, to help keep you from being blocked unnecessarily. Feel free to ignore me if you think you know better. 69.118.162.150 (talk) 00:22, 1 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
1) I agree. 2) You need to stop removing tags from AFD's. Sir Joseph (talk) 02:03, 1 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on List of notable former Orthodox Jews. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Sir Joseph (talk) 01:52, 3 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
