Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy the encyclopaedia and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ; plus, if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page.
Additional tips
editHere are some extra tips to help you get around in Wikipedia:
- If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
- You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
- You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
- If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
- If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
Current open tasks
editYou can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Wikipedia:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)

editExcuse me? What sources are you talking about? You've provided nothing as far as I can see. And FWIW, do you really think that age matters to these great rabbis? --Shuki 21:23, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
How about all these articles? All of them said 104 - 106.

"הרב כדורי: 1900-2006", ידיעות אחרונות, כ"ט בטבת תשס"ו, 29.1.2006, עמוד
Now show me even ONE source to the unacceptable age of 117. Chagai 03:19, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

editYou said in your edit that you do speak Hebrew. Would you be able to translate the page available on the HE Wikipedia for us? Along with sources, naturally. --Puellanivis 20:02, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
- I am not sure what you mean by sources. I know that this article had a great debate in the Hebrew Wikipedia, and because of it each word was checked in it. So I have to assume it is correct. I did confirmed the description in the English Wikipedia match the one in the Hebrew, so as far as "source" it is accurate, as far as I can tell. This is not such an important article for me, and I will not trnslate the rest of it. However, I will put a note on his page, if someone else want to translate it. Chagai 06:33, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Why is it a mistake, I am not that good at reading Hebrew but [1] is definitely an article about Claudia Ciesla. Garion96 (talk) 09:39, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I know Hebrew... It link to an article in a user page, not an article in the main articles area. Chagai 10:01, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, too bad the anon did not made a mention about that in the edit summary. Does Moyse means it is in userspace? Garion96 (talk) 10:30, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- It is his name (Aaron & Moyse Cohen). Look like he started translating it into his talk page (don't know why) and abanded it. Chagai 11:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

The translation request
editThe translation request
Hi! Could I ask you to translate the article which you can find below into Hebrew on that Wikipedia? Please help me to show our language to the world – the article is quite short and has been selected from English and Silesian article and shortened as possible to contain only the basic informations. If you would finish, please, make me know on my Silesian or Polish discussion. Thanks in advance.
PS. If you want me to translate any article into Polish or Silesian, contact me without hesistation.
So, here’s the text to translation:
The Silesian language (Silesian: ślůnsko godka, ślůnski, sometimes also pů našymu) is a language spoken by people in the Upper Silesia region in Poland, but also in Czech Republic and Germany. In 2002 about 56 000 declared Silesian as their native language, but the number of speakers is estimated on 1 250 000.
Silesian is closely related to Polish language, that’s why it is considered as a dialect of Polish by some linguistics.
Alphabet
editThere’s not one Silesian alphabet. The Silesian speakers are used to write their language with the Polish characters. In 2006 was invented the new Silesian alphabet, based on all of the Silesian scripts (there’s 10 of them). It is widely used on the Internet, as well as in the Silesian Wikipedia.

Proposed deletion of Shavit 2
editA proposed deletion template has been added to the article Shavit 2, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

- You never wrote an astronomy article in your life. Your understanding in the subject is zero. Don't touch the article. Chagai (talk) 10:49, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Your lies aren't impressing anyone. You have been reported. Broccoli (talk) 10:51, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. Now get out of here. Chagai (talk) 11:00, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Please do not be uncivil like this. It is uncalled for, no matter your past with the editor in question. If you keep acting like this, I'll have to block you. If you have any questions, let me know. Cheers, Master of Puppets - Call me MoP! :D 19:02, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- What is uncivil and unappropriate here is the initial approach by the editor. He put a warning template in my page, like he never met me, and I am a first grade student, suggesting me a sandbox... Guests like him are not welcome on my page, because their intention is just to make noise and fights. Chagai (talk) 20:00, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

- Added. Chagai (talk) 15:17, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
- Hi Chagai, further to this auto-message I've raised this at WP:Media copyright questions as there's still a lack of clarity here and probably some more paperwork that needs to be done. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:14, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- This is the memo that was sent to me:
--Original Message-- From: Bareket observatory [2] Sent: Thursday, May 01, 2008 2:32 PM To: Chagai Adler Subject: Re: מצפה הכוכבים ברקת במכבים - וויקיפדיה

hi
editיש בעיה קטנה במיזם שאתה ייסדת בויקיפדיה העברית, (מאחר שדף המשתמש שלך נחסם לא יכולתי לבקש שם). יש מצב תוכל לעזור באיתור קטע? Yiftach T (talk) 22:24, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
- איזה קטע? אגב עדיף לשלוח לי דוא"ל כי אני כבר לא כל כך פעיל בוויקיפדיה. Chagai (talk) 04:24, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- בסוף הסתדרנו, תודה בכל מקרה. Yiftach T (talk) 21:21, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

editYou currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Beersheba. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. nableezy - 22:44, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I open the discussion and the IP address ignore it and continue to revert the article. So are you going to give him the advantage of being rude? Chagai (talk) 22:47, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- I left the same notice for the IP. I dont really care which one of you stops reverting right now, but both of you will be blocked if you both continue. Pretty simple. nableezy - 22:48, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- In the mean time, could you fix the ref error I mentioned in the talk page? Nobody else seems to be watching. nableezy - 22:49, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
- Are you going to block the IP now? Because he just reverted the edit after you gave him a warning. Chagai (talk) 22:59, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

File permission problem with File:Bareket Telescope.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Bareket Telescope.jpg. 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 [email protected], 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 [email protected].
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 in section F11 of the 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. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 14:54, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
