What do you think you are doing -editing the palestinians history?

You are not allowed to do that, as no consensus have been reached, as to whether to 'delete' the template that I have spend 48 hours to emancipate, and spend 5 hours every Sunday morning to convert app. 10 articles of depopulated villages into the new modern design.Nick Finnsbury (talk) 12:26, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I don't know what you are talking about, there was no consensus, as there are people saying 'keep'. Consensus means that all agree to it. Therefore I question the legality of what you are doing, and I could anyway quickly make a template in a similar design.

During the socalled 'discussion' that took place on the deletion-page, there was no serious argumentation with proof, that the 'Palestinian Remember'-page numbers about houses standing etc. are wrong. It seems sensible that there are no houses standing for eksample, when the viollages have been flattened, so why not say so, when this is the case. Not only have your people 'deleted' the palestinians history and life in Palestine, now you want to delete their history tooNick Finnsbury (talk) 12:39, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Now I have spent ½ hour undoing what you unlawfully have done

You have deleted my work. First you launch a pseudo-discussion about a non-existing problem, careful not to go into detail about what is wrong with my template. I know all those tricks and I know your peoples tricks. This is one thing - the dubious nature of your enterprise (and the moral defunct-ness of it with regards to the poor Palestinians and their historie). But to start delting my template, without any consensus have been reached is so outrageous, that you sjhould really worry, if you can stay here on Wikipedia, editing freely, the way you do. I would be VERY worried if I were you. Nick Finnsbury (talk) 13:20, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Arabic script

That's a great idea! I never thought about that. Badagnani, FunkMonk and I were discussing what to do about Arabic script a couple months ago, but this never crossed my mind. I will inform one of them and will make that necessary change. Yea, there's a lot of articles that need infobox restoration. I just did al-Kabri and al-Birwa (your change was reverted). However, seeing that restorations at the al-Birwa, az-Zeeb and Kafr Bir'im articles were reverted by Nick, I want to make sure he won't continue doing this, so we'll walking in circles. You know what I mean. He's taking it very personally, even though no personal attacks were waged against him. On the contrary, if he disagrees with someone, he will personally attack him/her. See my talk page. This is strictly against Wikipedia policy. So before we make any changes let us (or a third party) explain to him this policy and the 3-revert rule. Cheers! --Al Ameer son (talk) 13:31, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I will not do so now. If he attacks me for being a "collaborator" or "traitor" or anything else than I will be forced to. --Al Ameer son (talk) 13:36, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Yet another graphics request

Hi. I need another favor from you. I think it's relatively simple this time, but you can probably do it better than me.I was asked at a GA review to add battle sketches. Basically I'd like two sketches derived from this (p. 50), one of the Ramadan offensive and one of the Haradh offensive. You can use any one of these maps, I think this one might be the best choice. Wandalstouring said it's not necessary for GA, so it's not urgent, just recommended. What do you say? -- Nudve (talk) 13:49, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

First, thanks. Do you mean simply crop the map from the book? I don't know, that sounds close to copyvio. The new Israel pushpin map is truly awesome! -- Nudve (talk) 14:47, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand. How will that be done? -- Nudve (talk) 15:16, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry for being dense, but what exactly do you mean by "trace"? -- Nudve (talk) 15:29, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I think I get it (I'll read those articles later...) Well, if you think it would yield better results, I guess you might as well go for it. If you think it's too sneaky, it shouldn't be too hard too draw those arrows on a PD map. -- Nudve (talk) 18:18, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

This looks rather like inappropriate WP:CANVAS. For some reason, Gilabrand is seeking to POV an incident of state-backed dispossession, the kind of thing that in other circumstances we'd call a pogrom. PR^talk 21:31, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Insignias in templates

Hi. I've noticed your removal of unit logos from the two templates I created earlier today. I'm not really sure what the English Wikipedia's policy on that is, but I have noticed that this one has been accepted by Wikicommons as "insignia", and so I have just used it in Template:IAF Commanders. Do you think the same with other units? -- Nudve (talk) 17:36, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

You mean the IAF flag is not copyrighted? Or that the IAF itself uploaded it to commons? The commons page doesn't specify. -- Nudve (talk) 18:06, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

The commons tag says "a flag, a coat of arms, a seal or some other official insignia", which should include that stuff. Then again, it doesn't really explain the copyright status. Weird. Anyway, sliced rectangles aren't interesting :) -- Nudve (talk) 18:27, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Any more Israeli architect articles planned?

Hi Ynhockey. I just wanted to write to you to tell you that I really appreciated reading your Ram Karmi article. I also think that the rest of your contributions are very good. Are you going to write any more articles about Israeli architects? Please do, if you would take a request from me. I've seen some articles on the Hebrew WP that would be good to have English translations of, about some very talented architects, but my ability to read Hebrew isn't quite what I would like it to be in order to translate confidently yet. I spend some time trying to learn every day, and I do love browsing the articles on the Hebrew WP. Are you going to nominate the article about Ram Karmi for DYK? I think you should, it would make a fine addition to the main page. Sincerely, DVD (talk) 22:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

I nominated the article,[1] feel free to edit it. Regards, DVD (talk) 23:38, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Then I was uncertain about my writing and impatient waiting for it to go on the mainpage and withdrew the nomination.[2] It is a wonderful article but I wasn't sure of myself in writing, :( sorry I owe you a barnstar.

I linked the table of contents of the article because he enters the article in the middle and is discussed throughout the rest. I would have listed page numbers but there were titles instead and I wanted to introduce the whole article to the reader. DVD (talk) 20:58, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

On another note, good luck on your RfA! I think you are going to pass. And last but not least, I was wondering if you could take a look at a naming convention question about another architect I noticed we have two articles started for,[3] [4] and that should probably be merged. Regards, DVD (talk) 20:29, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

I think this is the firms site [5] which spells his name with a (y) but many of the books on google books spell it with an (i). So I'm still not sure. But I do trust your judgment and think we can go ahead and merge or in this case redirect, it can always be moved again later. DVD (talk) 20:58, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Sorry again for not waiting and for being impatient. But if someone later asks to move it back, you should by then be able to move it back over the redirect :) See you around, DVD (talk) 21:51, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Your RfA

I stumbled across it, which is a good thing. I rarely support anyone for admin, but my respect for you is so high, you deserve my support. Not that you need it. Now, my only critique is your lack of edits to hockey articles. How about we get a good Israeli hockey article going, since you're Israeli (and I'm technically so, but that was based on using the Law of Return, instead of actually living there), and we're both hockey fans, although if my memory serves me right, you're a Vancouver Canucks supporter. Just drop me a line if you want to do something about any article.OrangeMarlin ^{Talk• Contributions} 16:52, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Поздравляю вас, from the other side of the border Nishidani (talk) 21:32, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Actually I only noted you were up for consideration when the voting had closed. I don't follow anything to do with administration, and didn't know. I trust implicitly the judgement of many admins I admire, Avruch, Avi, PhilKnight who commended your candidacy, and wouldn't presume to express a personal judgement. I tend, by nature, to approve of strong pro-Israeli editors and admins who, however, apply the rules with rigour, and exact high standards. You've been a tough editor on the few articles where we've engaqed, but scrupulous in regards to evidence, and in my book, since evidence and respect for method is what counts, I join others in heartily congratulating you. As to the other side of the border, well, a small joke on the Green line over there. I live mainly in Italy actually, but in the I/P area I observe events mentally from the topological perspective near the heights of Pisgah, or from the limestone rises above Ibrahim el-Khalil! Best wishes for your adminship then.Nishidani (talk) 21:53, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Congratulations from me too, and thanks for your "thank you" message. I agree with you about WikiProjects needing admins for the mechanics of running the place. WP:SHIPS even posts a list of admin members on its WP page so others know where to go to get page moves and the like from someone who understood the topic area. Anyway, good luck with your new tools and congrats on getting such strong support in your RfA. Euryalus (talk) 22:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Pushpin maps

Sorry - didn't realise there were regional ones - perhaps you should add them to the documentation of {{Infobox kibbutz}} so other editors are aware of them. One thing I have noticed about these is that for the cities placed on the maps, the co-ords of the article (and the pushpin) do not match - e.g. Kiryat Shmona, where the pushpin is below the city on the map. пﮟოьεԻ 57 23:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: coordinates

I could certainly use some help if you've got the time. I was hoping to finish off all the articles in Category:West Bank articles missing geocoordinate data since there were so few to begin with. At this point I've done all the easy ones (meaning the ones that can be found easily on google maps or have coordinates in the Hebrew interwiki). There are only 27 left, and I'm about ready to give up on them. There's also Category:Israel articles missing geocoordinate data which I haven't done as much work on and you'll probably find easier. --Bachrach44 (talk) 18:33, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Fair use pics

Hi Ynhockey, I see you've been removing some images of Israeli generals over the past few days. These were only uploaded in the first place because the IDF website explicitly specified that fair use was permitted for their material:

The user may make "fair use" of the protected material as set out under the law. Such fair use includes reasonable quoting from the protected material.

I understand that the copyright fanatics have gotten a bit more Nazi (if I may fulfill Goodwin's law immediately) since then on fair use images of people, and certainly if less restrictive images exist they should be used, but shouldn't we leave these until then?

Greetings Ynhockey!

Speedy deletion of Egged Ta'avura

A tag has been placed on Egged Ta'avura requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to wish those Wikipedians who have been nice enough to give me a barnstar or smile at me, supportive enough to agree with me, etc., a Happy Thanksgiving! Sincerely, --Happy Thanksgiving! Sincerely, A Nobody^{My talk} 02:52, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Carmel Winery

Hi Ynhockey,

I have edited the article thoroughly because it was on the cleanup list. Do you think the cleanup template should be removed now?

Hospitals

Thanks for making the list; I worked on it some more. Can you move Sha'arei Tzedek Medical Center to Shaare Zedek Medical Center? This is the transliteration the hospital itself uses, and thus also the one we should use, according to all standards of reasonability. We won't write "Hadasah" or "Hadassa" or "Hadasa" either, right? Can't do the move myself, unfortunately. See http://www.szmc.org.il/ENG/ for proof. Thanks! --Piz d'Es-Cha (talk) 16:32, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Military police corps followup

Responding to your comment, I AM from the MP corps, (although i'd prefer not to reveal my base/unit) I'd be happy co continue to update the IDF/mp page, and also I'm usually involved in all the significant operations done by Military Police, such as the recent return of the bodies of the kidnapped (Eldad regev and ehud goldvaser) so if you need any updated material on operations such as that (or more likely that will be in the future) I'm here to assist. Also thank you for taking care of MP page. Red G187 (talk) 12:15, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Bring on the dancing elves - the beer has arrived

Have an unyielding beer on me. Let the amber nectar flow all day and night. Let it run down the mountains and through the caverns and across the rich lawns to swamp the streets. Let it rain beer. Let the heavens open and shine forth beer. Let it all be beer. Wonderful beer. And let it be as deep as the heart of a lion. This is an acknowledgment of your participation in the RfA of: SilkTork *YES!. 19:12, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Mat Devine

shalom alaykhem! Hey buddy=D!its Megastrike14 here. sorry about that it was my mistake for putting the deletion tag on mat devine's article. But i do believe that article needs alot of work on it and we need to team up to do clean it up to make it upto professional standard!:) i think we should take into consideration the following: 1)merge the article into the Kill Hannah article 2) or re-write it to make the grammar neutral as i have to agree that its written too similarly to an adveritsement. get back to me on the matter my friend:) thankyou User:Megastrike14 xx

okay, il take those into consideration, but i won't have enough time to work on the article until friday:/. so expect another message soon my friend cheers User:Megastrike14
