Conspiracy theories

Wikipedia is not a place for publishing original research that is not published in a reliable source. On issues that are controversial, the standards expected for source reliability is often higher, and material is contested if it doesn't meet those standards.

Wikipedia standards for neutrality and original research means that sentences should not be added that make unsubstantiated claims.

The Age is a Melbourne newspaper that is highly regarded as a reliable source, and its editorial position is consistently supportive of refugees and asylum seekers ([1] [2] [3] [4] [5]) Allegations of xenophobia in The Age are not published in any reliable source, and as such must be removed from Wikipedia as unfounded.

A user is adding material that pushed unsubstantiated claims and sources that don't meet wikipedia's standards into the article body. The website "yournewswire.com" is self-published, and does not meet Wikipedia's standards for reliable sources. ( http://yournewswire.com/un-proven-ties-between-isis-and-israel/)

Note that edit warring on the topic of ISIL may fall afoul of Wikipedia:General sanctions/Syrian Civil War and Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

I will file an issue on the edit warring noticeboard to seek involvement of third party editors.-- Aronzak (talk) 11:01, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Hello,

I am sorry if I have posted anything out of line, however another person has been editing as well and the paragraphs have become distorted. Whilst I agree with removing certain aspects of my edit, and have no problem with removing sources such as the Isis link -which I posted to display articles written in retort to mainstream media. I find it useless in deleting all my well researched data on the school. For instance I have interviewed people and have gotten permission on the subject matter in order to edit this article and have studied this subject in great detail. I did not accuse the Age of anything. I was merely pointing to the media prejudice fuelled culture that surrounds the school. As commonly known the media sensationalises many issues, I don't know how it is any less relevant due it being an Islamic school. However it is not wrong or irrelevant to the issue as it encompasses the ongoing community struggles. The paragraphs relating to xenophobia and ethnocentrism etc. were referring to issues raised within the Australian community.

I would like to kindly ask the admins to revert majority of my changes as I have not posted anything against the Wikipedia rules of conduct or information. (I have referenced correctly with relevant links and sources ).

Thank you - --Stevengreggory--Stevengreggory (talk) 06:57, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

The first sentence of Mr. Aronzak's message above contains two links of note: one to our policy on original research, and one to our guidelines on reliable sources. Can you confirm that you have read those pages before we continue? Kuru (talk) 23:26, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Yes I have read both the links now, You may continue.--Stevengreggory (talk) 23:35, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Super. Let's look at your proposed changes paragraph by paragraph. The first significant alteration was to change

In 2005 there were a number of issues of concern raised involving the school.

to

In the Media there have been many fabricated articles written about the school. Including the number of issues at the school, in 2005 a libel was written in order to defame Mr. Hallak and several of the staff members. The defamatory statements made throughout the Media raised community concerns. However yet again the Age's source content was appallingly never founded on fact and rather displayed false particularities in its content.

with both statements sourced to a given article in the The Sunday Age. Can you help me align your version with the policies given above? I cannot seem to reconcile your version to that source; it appears to be mostly your own personal opinion without any source to back it up. Kuru (talk) 00:00, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
