Hi: I see in your edit to Aliyah you said in the edit summary that there were reliable sources supporting the numbers. Please go to Talk:Aliyah and say what they are. This is called bold - revert - discuss, and is how we prefer to deal with disagreements over article content on Wikipedia. There is also a section at one of the administrators' noticeboards about the number changes to this article; the editor who reverted you mentioned it in their edit summary. It's here in case you want to join the discussion there, but the article talk page is the best place to talk about content issues. Yngvadottir (talk) 20:15, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Mentioned at WP:ANI

Hello Ashurbanippal. Your edits of Aliyah have been mentioned at WP:ANI#Aliyah. People have observed that you are a brand new account, and you seem to be edit warring at Aliyah. At least, you are making large changes (23,000 bytes) while making no effort to get consensus on the talk page. Please take the time for a discussion there. And you can reply at ANI if you wish. Feel free to say whether you have previously edited Aliyah as an IP. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 03:24, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Formation of the ADL

Hello Ashurbanippal, and thanks for your recent contributions to History of antisemitism. I haven't been able to read the specific reference you added, but I have (I believe) the definitive answer to the question we have recently been debating. It is from Abraham H. Foxman, National Director of the Anti-Defamation League. He states "No, the Leo Frank case was not the impetus for the founding of the Anti-Defamation League." You can find his article here: http://www.adl.org/press-center/c/a-century-later-leo-frank-tragedy-still-resonates.html So, I will revert your recent edit, unless you have something more authoritative. Thanks Gulbenk (talk) 21:20, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello again Ashurbanippal. I am concerned that you are engaging in edit warring, and adding erroneous information to this article. I have already directed you to an authoritative source which contradicts the information you added. I would rank the National Director of the ADL as a better, more reliable, source for information regarding the foundation of his organization than an author.

I know that you are new here, and may not be familiar with the interactions that (hopefully) lead to better articles. I will not revert your edit. Rather, I ask you to reconsider your actions. I will only enter a request for administrative involvement if you refuse to reconsider. Feel free to respond here, if you still feel that your position is correct. If we can not settle this matter on our own, I will ask an administrator to consider the merits of each position. Gulbenk (talk) 22:05, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

ADL's website is a primary source, I brought three different secondary sources (which are better). Please ask for an impartial administrator's opinion. I'll comply with his decision. It wasn't my intention to disturb you or start an edit-war, I simply think the Leo Frank affair was important for the foundation of ADL. Perhaps you could write something like "some sources state that Leo Frank's conviction led to the foundation of the Anti-Defamation League, although the organization denies this".--Ashurbanippal (talk) 22:09, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

I have added this discussion to the article's talk page, since it may be useful, or of interest, to others. Lets move the discussion to that page. Thanks. Gulbenk (talk) 22:21, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

January 2015 Syria

It is good that you supplemented the article. Attack 20 January 2015. However, Article 4 there is still an attack, it already the fifth. Why it is separate? Let there be a list of 5 items. + you can not prove that * January 2015 * = consequences (another option intercommunication) for *December 2014 * + Of course there is a mutual relationship. A specific value is unknown to us, and can not be reliably proven. Calo yronili (talk) 06:11, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

I'm sorry, it's not bad faith, but I didn't understand what you said.--Ashurbanippal (talk) 06:17, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 20

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Yitzhak Kaduri, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Yehoshua. 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.

Revert

The page Battle of Shuja'iyya, like all I/P articles, is under ARBPIA's I Revert rule which you just broke here, which therefore you are obliged to revert. The fact has been mentioned on the A/E page.Nishidani (talk) 13:00, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was blocked for edit-warring in this article. However, as you can see here, I didn't break 3RR. On the contrary, I asked Shmayo to gain consensus on the talk page BEFORE making controversial changes and removing sourced content (per WP:BRD). Despite that, he continued (and started) the edit-war, while I was blocked and he was not. Why such a double standard?--Ashurbanippal (talk) 12:00, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Decline reason:

You were indeed edit warring, and as such you were blocked; what other people might have been doing, so long as it was not vandalism, is not relevant in an unblock request. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 16:07, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

TmG12 is not my sockpuppet. I believe someone created that account to harm me. I'm not so stupid to create another user just to edit the same page that caused my block. I don't think this investigation is based on checkuser evidence, because you'll probably see our IP addresses don't match.--Ashurbanippal (talk) 13:43, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Decline reason:

While CheckUser indeed found TmG12 to be unrelated, it linked this account to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Wlglunight93/Archive. Huon (talk) 00:16, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I have blocked this account indefinitely as a sock of User:Wlglunight93 following the evidence presented at the sockpuppet investigation linked above. Huon (talk) 20:54, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
