New articles
editMarhaba, I just want to to tell you great job on the new articles on the Arab towns in Israel. I was especially thankful when you created Ein Mahil which was on my to-do list. I will find references for the articles soon. I see you're from Shefa-Amr, ahlan I'm from Kafr Yasif and Majd al-Krum. Don't be a stranger. Cheers! --Al Ameer son (talk) 16:44, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
Si Ud. es el último redactor del artículo de Ilut, yo quisiera que me darías una buena razón por qué es escrito que el pueblo se pertenece al Palestinian Authority cuan ambos nosotros sabemos que eso no es la verdád.
Coordinates
editHi M5Power! Thank you for adding geographic coordinates to a series of locations in Israel. I must note however, that most of the coordinates you added were incorrect, or imprecise. I have checked about half so far, and will check the others soon. Please be more careful about this in the future. In the meantime, here are two which I found to be completely incorrect and would appreciate if you looked at them:
- Bareket observatory—coord provided looks like a private home, certainly not in a place for an observatory. Maybe it's nearby?
- Tal Institute—article says it's in Givat Shaul, while the coord points to Bayit VaGan. Maybe the institute moved?
If you can find out these points, I'll be greatful. Soon I will get back to you about the other coordinates. —Ynhockey (Talk) 10:46, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
More notes:
- Church of Bethphage -- looks like a private home, fairly certainly not what's shown here (#2 is the church)
- Church of the Primacy of St. Peter -- doesn't appear to be anything in that location
- Lod Airport Massacre (removed) -- coord was for Terminal 3, built long after the massacre. Shuki and I discussed this coordinate but were not sure whether the massacre was at Terminal 1 or 2.
- Kabzeel -- appears to be nothing there (not even ruins), and the site doesn't appear on any map. What are your sources for this?
- Handasaim Herzliya High School -- appears to contradict the article, which says that the school is in Herzliya, not Haifa
- Achshaph -- does not appear to be anything on the site; no ruins or anything, and does not appear on any map
- Ohalo -- coordinate is literally in the water, and close to an urban area. Are you sure about this one?
Will get back to you on the rest (still haven't checked everything). —Ynhockey (Talk) 11:21, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
- Hi M5Power, and thanks for getting back to me! Personally I don't trust Google Maps when I see coordinates there that were originally added by 3rd parties (Kabzeel, Church of the Primacy of St. Peter, Achshaph). Are there any other sources? Thank you also for correcting the cases in which there were mistakes. I'll review the rest of the coordinates shortly. —Ynhockey (Talk) 22:28, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
When specifying Israeli coordinates, please use region:IL instead of Israel. For more details of how {{coord}} works, see Template:Coord/doc. --Stepheng3 (talk) 00:59, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
- Why do you keep doing this, as in, for example, this edit? --Stepheng3 (talk) 07:44, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
- Oh... sorry about that, its been a long time since i last updated coords and i thought the current "israel" tag is the right one to use (since it was already there)... from now on i'll do it right :) thanks and sorry again!
- That'd be great. Thanks for your willingness to cooperate. --Stepheng3 (talk) 17:16, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Bzq logo.jpg)
editThanks for uploading File:Bzq logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:04, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 30
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mount Bental/Tal Al-Gharam, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page IDF (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:01, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. 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.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
editHi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 05:19, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Roberto Urbina moved to draftspace
editAn article you recently created, Roberto Urbina, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your draft article, Draft:Roberto Urbina
editHello, M5Power. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Roberto Urbina".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}
, {{db-draft}}
, or {{db-g13}}
code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 10:04, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

The file File:ShfMap.PNG has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
unused, low-res, no obvious use
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
