Linking Nationalities[edit]

I notice you've linked "Israeli" and "Israeli American" a few times on David Blatt. The reason these edits are being reverted (by a couple of different users, including me) is that WP:OVERLINK states that nationalities (like the countries they represent) should usually not be linked. In the case of Israel and the US, these are clearly major, well-known countries and linking them is excessive. Please don't link these on this article again.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Copying material[edit]

Hello Checkthe. I noticed that part of the material you added to the Assembly of Representatives (Mandatory Palestine) is identical to that in the source you have used, specifically "established a network of political and administrative institutions". Please be careful to avoid WP:Plagiarism by rewording sources rather than using identical language. There will be occasions on which it is almost impossible to say the same thing without using the same words, but I don't think this is one of them. Cheers,, Number 5 7 19:30, 20 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Operation Lot[edit]

Hi Checkthe,

I noticed that you contributed a source to Operation Lot, which might contain some useful information for this and other articles. Unfortunately the source is behind a paywall. Is there a publicly available copy, and if not, do you have a copy yourself that you might be able to share with me in private? Thanks in advance, Ynhockey ^(Talk) 18:35, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello[edit]

Hello, and (a late) welcome to Wikipedia. May I ask if you have edited Wikipedia before, and if so, under which user-name? Cheers, Huldra (talk) 20:23, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I note that you never answered the above question. Your removal of Palestinian history here has also been noted, and reversed. Huldra (talk) 23:14, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Omega/Kfar Glikson[edit]

Hello Checkthe. I'm somewhat concerned about your recent edits to Kfar Glikson, particularly the ones about Omega. The material you are adding to the article gives the impression that you are attempting to promote the company (e.g. referring to it as a world leader and talking about winning contracts). Please bear in mind that the article is about the kibbutz, not the company. Cheers, Number 5 7 13:17, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain why it is not good to add information about the economic branches of a kibbutz? The article is "about the kibbutz" and that would include its economy, if I am not mistaken. I am not a promoter of this kibbutz or any kibbutz. I just like to write about their development. And I do know that "Globes" is a reputable source, so if this newspaper published an article about a kibbutz company, why would you remove it? Population figures are good, but there is more to a kibbutz than the number of people who live there.--Checkthe (talk) 13:48, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is good to add information about the economy, which is why I didn't delete all your additions, and have retained mention of Omega. However, you appear to be concentrating rather a lot on bigging up Omega. The fact that you can reference it to Globes is irrelevant - it's how you are presenting the information that is concerning. Number 5 7 13:49, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but I have a hard time understanding why winning a tender for UNICEF in 2005 for millions of dollars is not worthy of being in the article. How many kibbutzim do you know that can say this about their companies? And if I was a promoter of some company, I think I would look for something more recent than 10 years ago...

Proposed deletion of Tuvia Katz[edit]

The article Tuvia Katz has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back. Thank you,

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:42, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
