Work to be done

Hi, please help create sections in the articles about the israeli heads of states about their attitude towards Muslims. thestick 05:19, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

This is not Judapedia you know, creating such a huge section on the Faisal of Saudi Arabia article is undue weight. thestick 13:08, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

"Judapedia"? Try to refrain from ethnic and religious attacks. Beit Or 20:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Please excuse that then. Now, what about the rest of my post. thestick 04:11, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

And that wasn't an "ethnic and religious attack", just for your information. thestick 07:46, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually, each time I read my question and your response, I feel offended by your brazen response to accuse me of an "ethnic and religious attack" . What I meant by 'Judapedia' is, if you are so keen to include such trivial matters and everything else connected to Judaism such as peoples 'attitudes' in every biography - did you know that the wikimedia foundation offers free hosting for any wiki, so why not go ahead and register www.judapedia.org (which stands for Judaism Encyclopedia) and enjoy creating all articles like "What a carpenter living in new jersey felt about his Jewish neighbour on march 14th". please refrain from jumping to baseless conclusions. thestick 08:05, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Faisal was not a carpenter; his views on Jews are widely publicized and notable. The section on trivia is unencyclopedic: if a certain is trivial, it doesn't belong to the article. Stop removing the material you dislike. Beit Or 17:29, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

"Stop removing the material you dislike." - Why should I 'dislike' material? Once again you jump to a hasty conclusion, or was that section meant to provoke people. I've already stated the reasons why I didn't accept dedicating such a huge section with it's own title to 'attitutde towards jews' - Whatever, the new "Foreign relations" section is much better. Kudos. thestick 18:38, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I noticed that section was titled by Bless Sins, and not you. thestick 19:28, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Islam and slavery lead

Dear interested editor:
Please visit here: in the next few days and give your vote and your proposals on how the lead may be reworked and reformed to meet GA criteria before next nomination.DavidYork71 04:22, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Favour?

Beit Or,

Arrow740 suggested you might be a good person to ask. There is four days left for final changes to the 2007 Misplaced Pages CD Selection. I am after a couple of people of different religious views to have a quick look through the relevant pages on Islam, Israel, Palestine etc. I have asked Aminz as well. I don't promise to make any changes but I will seriously consider it if you think some of the version adopted are POV.

The 2006 CD has an estimated circulation of over 50,000 so its worth getting as good as possible. The most recent viewable copy is at : . Changes planned are listed at Misplaced Pages:2006 Misplaced Pages CD Selection in terms of (1) articles currently included to exclude (2)articles to add (3) articles to update because the version listed is vandalised (4) sections to exclude (mainly on appropriateness to children) (5) string deletes and spelling corrections (to UK English) (6) redirects of common article names to the main article. Navigation and search pages are being sorted separately. See especially: Muhammad, Palestinian territories, West Bank, Israel, Lebanon, Jew, Judaism, Islam and any shocking omissions?Please let me know of any issues if you see any. Thanks. --BozMo talk 19:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I'll try to take a look at these articles, but I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much help in the next few days. Jayjg is a very knowledgeble and respected editor; he may help you with Palestinian territories, West Bank, Israel, Jew, and Judaism. Beit Or 20:08, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Stop hurling accusations at me

Please stop accusing me of things I don't do. Recently you have accused me of "stalking" you. What's interesting is that your accusation are very, very hypocritical, cosnidering the fact that you have begun to revert my edits on here, though who have not edited this article recently.Bless sins 20:16, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

It should be clear to any reasonable person that you've stalked me to Blood libel. You never edited articles on the blood libel before; you've only arrived there to (essentially) revert a recent edit of mine. Your accusation me stalking you Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais is completely nonsensical. I made my first edit to the article on 20:11, 6 November 2006; this page has been on my watchlist for several months, even though I've not been active there. Beit Or 20:21, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Actually I made an edit on Blood libel against Jews (very relevent to Blood libel) on 14 January 2007, here. That is much later than November 6, 2006. The page has been on watchlist as well. Please think twice before you hurl another ridiculous accusation at me.Bless sins 20:41, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Oh yeah, and it took you some time to recall that after taking cue from my answer... This is the second time you've stalked me, please consider yourself warned. Beit Or 21:10, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

What? Are you saying that I'm fabricating my edit on 14 January 2007? I made that edit waaay before you accused me of WP:stalking on 24 March 2007. Like I said, think twice before making a ridiculous accusation against me. Also, regarding your accusation on the King Faisal article: I had been looking into King_Faisal_Foundation (an article I created) for quite some time. It is natural that I edit King Faisal, as he is the sole inspiration of that magnificent foundation.Bless sins 21:18, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Lewis (1999)?

Back in January you added citations to The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, citing a work as "Lewis (1999)". However, you neglected to identify what work this is. Can you please clarify, giving us the title and the full name of Lewis? -- Antaeus Feldspar 04:16, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Is it "Lewis, Bernard (1999). Semites and Anti-Semites: An Inquiry into Conflict and Prejudice. W. W. Norton & Co. ISBN 0-393-31839-7"? -- Antaeus Feldspar 04:25, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Trolling?

"In addition, you may consider not starting your posts with a brief piece of trolling."
Were you referring to me, or brownhairedgirl?
Which part was trolling? Bladestorm 22:03, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

You know the answers to both questions. Beit Or 22:04, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah. I now know to whom you were referring, since you've moved the comments around.

I still do not know which part you meant.

May I please remind you about NPA? I'm not trolling. If you want to make a case, do it. But if the only way you can do so is by making attacks, then you really have none at all, do you? Bladestorm 22:06, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

You know very well what I'm talking about it's pointless to continue this discussion. Consider yourself warned. Beit Or 22:15, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Tell me which part looked like trolling. I don't know which part you mean, and saying, "you know what I mean" isn't going to change anything. Telling me I'm "warned" is hostile, uncivil, and grossly uncalled for, since I'm actually asking which part you're talking about. Tell me now, or I'll assume you're threatening me as a way of evading the issues. Bladestorm 22:22, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
