== Nakba ==
You are entitled to your view that nakba was orchestrtaed by Herzel 40 years in adavnce or that he created an idology for it but it is only your POV, not more. Wikipedia is the palce for NPOV articles. The Nakba article is not the place to start a discussion on "Mishnato shel Hertzel" I f you rad Hertzel vision "Medinat hayehudim" (which is the reason you live in Israel) you will see that he planned to work according to Int'l law and cooperation with the local poulation.
There need to be anrticle about the Nakba but it does not need to be a distorted one [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 10:23, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
:Herzl is a prominent Zionist, and since the Palestinian exodus took place during their war with the Zionists, the predisposition of Zionists with regards to the prospect of a Palestinian exodus is highly relevant to the article. The reason why I live in Israel has nothing to do with it and is none of your business.--[[User:Doron|Doron]] 12:24, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
:: As I said, this is your POV. Other do not see it this way. Zionism does not equial nakba (although you may think it is). You want to discuss the "predisposition of Zionists " to ideas about trnasfer - do it on the zionism page. The nakba is a specific event that was part of the war not part of some design by Hertzel. When disussing Hertzel plans in "zionism" or "Hertzel" you will need to bring both his (complete quote) from his diary including other ideas that he has about cooperation with the Palestinians. This "cherrypicking" of selective qyuotes from Herzel diary is not NPOV. [[User:Zeq|Zeq]] 12:46, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

Images need to have an [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags|image tag]] applied to the [[Wikipedia:Image description page|image description page]] indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

== Those Saudis.... ==
Hi Doron... You are absolutely right, in this case the word "Al" (which is actually pronounced ''aal'' in Arabic and is written differently than the definitive article ''al-'') means "house of" and is a separate word. Your addition is correct. I don't know if you know Arabic letters, but the difference is "آل''' سعود'''", versus "السعود", the former being the correct one.

== [[Golan Heights]] ==
Hi Doron. I've a question for you about this article. It refers to Golan Druze and Golan Muslims, leaving there no doubt that the Golan Druze are not to be considered Muslims. As you probably know, this is a tricky question. I'm aware that in Israel it is common not to regard the Druze as Muslims, and the Israeli Druze themselves generally take this view. However, in Syria and Lebanon, the Druze are very keen to emphasise that they are Muslims, and are treated as such for all official purposes. Indeed refusal to recognise them as such seems - in those countries - like bigotry. And of course, the majority of the Golan Druze remain Syrian citizens. Have you any idea as to the views of the Druze residents of the Golan, and if not, any idea how best to deal with this issue in the Golan Heights article? Perhaps it's OK as it is, but to me as someone rather more familiar with the Syrian and Lebanese Druze, it strikes a very jarring note. [[User:Palmiro|Palmiro]] | [[User talk:Palmiro|Talk]] 13:09, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
:Thanks for your reply. As I said, it's a complex issue, and I apologise in advance for the convoluted nature of my remarks here. I've put some excerpts from a paper on the subject [[User:Palmiro/druze_quotes|here]] which might give you an idea of the issues involved, and I'll see if I can find anything else, though whether there is anything to be found directly relevant to the Golan inhabitants I do not know.
:Incidentally, it's not so much the case that the Druze are generally regarded as Muslims - in Syria, and probably in Lebanon (at least by Sunnis and Shia), I'd say they are generally regarded as non-Muslims, but they are themselves keen to state that they are indeed Muslims (whether this in fact represents their own private self-identification or not, which is a further complication), and both states recognise them as such. My point, I suppose, would be that if the Golan Druze like other Syrian Druze regard themselves as Muslims (and this of course is the point that isn't as yet clear, at least to me), we probably shouldn't imply that they aren't. [[User:Palmiro|Palmiro]] | [[User talk:Palmiro|Talk]] 14:15, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
::Well, if you could establish that the Muslims/other Muslims are all Alawis that would get us around the issue, as you could simply refer to them as such and the text would therefore no longer imply that the Druze weren't Muslims. Incidentally, many more conservative, if that's the word, Sunnis in Syria don't consider Alawis to be real Muslims either (something the Alawis greatly resent), but that's not really relevant here. [[User:Palmiro|Palmiro]] | [[User talk:Palmiro|Talk]] 15:19, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Palmiro and Doron, Pardon me for interrupting ;-). From Tayseer Mara'Ii and Usama R. Halabi, Life under occupation in the Golan Heights, J Palestine Studies, XXII . no, 1 (Autumn 1992), pp, 78-93, we have the following information. Before 1967 the majority of the population was Sunni, but most of them left. After the war: "At all events, by July there were but six villages remaining in the entire territory: Majdal Shams, by far the largest, Buqa'ayta, Masada, 'Ayn Qinea, S'hita, and Ghajar. Except for Ghajar, which lay at some distance to the west near the Syrian-Israeli armistic line, the villages were within a few kilometers of one another near the cease-fire lines. And again except for Ghajar, which is Alawite, the remaining villages were almost entirely Druze." S'hita was destroyed in 1970. This paper does not explictly answer the question of whether the Golan Druze self-identify as Muslims. However, before 1967 they were not distinct from the other Syrian Druze and so presumably had similar attitudes. After 1967: "The Israelis also banned at the beginning of their occupation the Syrian curriculum and replaced it with one specially designed to inculcate a sense of separate "Druze identity," distinct from the Arab identity-as if members of this eleventh-century offshoot of Islam constituted a nation rather than a religious sect. This policy was refined over the years, and became more pronounced in 1976 with the creation of the 'Educational Committee for the Druze.' Special history books were developed entirely in contradiction with the facts: one reads, for example, of historic ties between the Jewish and Druze communities by virtue of their common minority status, and of traditional enmity between the Druze and their Sunni brothers. The message is driven home in countless ways that the Druze are a special community, superior to and distinct from other Arabs-indeed not Arab at all." (p81). There is also interesting information on the relation between the Golan Druze and Druze in Israel and the WB. Consistent information also appears in Bashar Tarabieh, Middle East Report, No. 194/195, (May - Aug., 1995), pp. 43-47.

The IP user escalated the temperature of the discussion very quickly, as you will see.

==Transliterations==
The italicised words following a word written in a non-Roman alphabet are guides for pronounciation rather than transliteration (which is present in the article title).

:I think you misunderstood my point. I am not that bothered about the article title ([[Mizrahi (political party)]], which is the transliteration of the name. The italicised bit after the Hebrew (i.e. Mizrakhi) is not a transliteration, it is a pronounciation aid (as is putting "Yerushalayim" after ירושלים).

== Francisco Gil-White mediation ==
Hi Doron, thought you might like a heads-up on this. You'll recall [[User:Ryan4]], whom you've encountered on a number of articles trying to add inappropriate links to Francisco Gil-White's conspiracy theory website at http://www.hirhome.com . He's previously been reprimanded for this sort of thing by other administrators on his user talk page ([[User talk:Ryan4#Stop spamming]]) and on AN/I ([[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive123#User:Ryan4]]). However, he appears to have learned nothing from the experience and has now brought a mediation case, singling me out for some reason. See [[Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-03-31 ChrisO]]. Given your previous intervention in the matter, I've added you as an involved party. My response is at [[Wikipedia talk:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2007-03-31 ChrisO#ChrisO]]. Naturally I think the whole thing's a waste of time and I'm encouraging the mediator to dump it on the grounds of Ryan4's bad faith, but it would be helpful if you could add a comment or two so that we can have a record of where things stand. Unfortunately I don't think this will be the last we'll hear from the hirhome fan club - Ryan4 now appears to be coordinating with fellow hirhomers. -- [[User:ChrisO|ChrisO]] 18:43, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

It's enough to provide links to well-illustrated articles about those monuments. --[[User:Ghirlandajo|Ghirla]]<sup>[[User_talk:Ghirlandajo|-трёп-]]</sup> 14:41, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

::I remove the infobox from stubs because it clutters tiny articles, making them an eye sore to look at.

== Source removal ==
I'm confused as to why you removed the sources from the Israel article. I haven't read through the first source, but the second one clearly states what it says in the article - namely, that if Israel was 100% sure of an Iraqi attack, they would also hand out gas masks to Palestinians. The article also adds that the masks can also be used against Israel (presumably that's why they have to be 100%, and not any less, sure that Iraq will attack). That does not change the facts in the article. I am confused as to why you removed the source. -- [[User:Ynhockey|Ynhockey]] <sup>([[User talk:Ynhockey|Talk]])</sup> 19:59, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
== Good job with Infobox Weather ==
Doron, </br>
Good job with {{tl|Infobox Weather}}. The better we can make infobox weather, the less there will be a need for single use templates like [[Template:Johannesburg weatherbox]] or the one on [[Toronto]]'s page.
A couple suggestions that I was thinking would be good: What about making the table a collapsible table (like Toronto's)? Also, it would be better to include dual automatic unit conversions. By that, I mean if someone inputs the imperial values the metric values will automatically be converted and displayed and if someone inputs the metric values the imperial values will be converted and displayed. However, the conversion could be overridden if needed by entering both values; which is currently how the template is set up now. {{tl|Infobox Settlement}} currently has this form of unit conversion. Are these things you could include in your Doron/test page? —[[User:MJCdetroit|MJCdetroit]] 18:21, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
:Yeah I agree - good job. I also agree with the collapsible notion, it would make it look more "swish". <small>'''[[User:Bennelliott|<span style="color:#00247D;">''Bennelliott''</span>]] • [[User talk:Bennelliott|<span style="color:#00247D;">''Talk''</span>]] • [[Special:Contributions/Bennelliott|<span style="color:#00247D;">''Contribs''</span>]]'''</small> 12:29, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

== Gaza ==
If you read carefully the link used as a ref you'll see it points to "Barcellona, Gaza", whereas all other twin cities are listed there in a "city, country" format. This is plainly a typo, should have been "Barcelona, Spain". I'm surprised your first action is to re-insert an error rather than ask me for further explanation. I now leave it to you to delete it.

Some intrepid admin has reopened the [[Deir Yassin massacre]] page. I'm wondering, did you ever get around to reading Uri Milstein's Hebrew book "Blood Libel in Deir Yassin" as you were going to?

==Operation Defensive Shield==
Hi there Doron. User Jaakobu has been inserting an unsourced statement that "135 Israelis were killed by Palestinian terrorists in March 2002" into the intro of this article over the last few days. After being reverted, he eventually came up with a Hebrew source that he says gives a figure of 130 Israelis killed by Palestinians in March of that year. However, Btselem records only 82 Israelis killed in that month.
Since Jaakobu's testimony has proven to be unreliable (he previously added a source which he claimed showed 100 Israelis killed in March when the source actually said from March to May 7) I wonder if you could check the Hebrew source he has now posted to confirm his figure? [[User:Gatoclass|Gatoclass]] 16:00, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
:Actually, I think you can save yourself the trouble now as we've since located sources we appear to agree on. Regards, [[User:Gatoclass|Gatoclass]] 19:57, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks Doron, I did actually find that link and include it in the article myself, unfortunately Tewfik has since tossed out the compromise Jaakobu and I worked out so my work there was a waste of time anyhow :/ [[User:Gatoclass|Gatoclass]] 21:22, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
