Welcome to Wikipedia. However, please do not start an article like "Save the World" unless you have a paragraph showing that it is an article, not just an attempt to correspond with the person or group. Please see our Criteria for speedy deletion for more information. Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 13:57, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Please read the rules and policies

There is Zionism, Arab nationalism, Arab-Israeli conflict AKA "Arab-Zionist conflict", but there is no such thing as Arab-zionism (especially with lowercase z). I will try to turn your text (unreferenced, badly written and needlessly repeating the content covered elsewhere) into a redirect. Please read the WP:RULES and use search before creating a new article. Thank you. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 10:28, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your response. I must apologize if my previous post seems rough - that's not how I meant it. Perhaps the links in the main article should be better organized, I think what you are looking for is History of the Arab-Israeli conflict and Views of the Arab-Israeli conflict (the latter is being reworked at Views of the Arab-Israeli conflict/temp, see Talk:Views of the Arab-Israeli conflict/temp). Our naming conventions are described at WP:NC. Cheers! ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 21:01, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

About Atheism and Judaism

A common misconception. Actually, not all Jews believe in God. Some, like me, are only Jewish by parentage. We are still considered Jews (even by law), unless we change religion completely. P.S. Did you see the image next to the userbox? That about covers it... --Chodorkovskiy ^(talk) 15:34, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Yes, exactly! You'd be surprised how difficult some people find it to grasp. As for the image, it's supposed to freak you out: it signifies the weirdness of my situation.--Chodorkovskiy ^(talk) 16:12, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Please review WP:NPA and WP:CIV

I find your post at Pecher's Talk - "be honest with yourself and tell the truth even if it costs you your life" - condescending and uncivil. ←Humus sapiens ^ну? 20:28, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Profile Photo of Nadia Cheaib dated December 2016.png

Thanks for uploading File:Profile Photo of Nadia Cheaib dated December 2016.png, which you've attributed to Nadia Cheaib. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:18, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
