Qalqilya edit

To quote from WP:ARBPIA3:

All IP editors, accounts with fewer than 500 edits, and accounts with less than 30 days tenure are prohibited from editing any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. This prohibition is preferably enforced by the use of extended confirmed protection, but where that is not feasible, it may also be enforced by reverts, page protections, blocks, the use of pending changes, and appropriate edit filters.
The sole exceptions to this prohibition are:
  1. Editors who are not eligible to be extended-confirmed may use the Talk: namespace to post constructive comments and make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided they are not disruptive. Talk pages where disruption occurs may be managed by any of the above methods. This exception does not apply to other internal project discussions such as AfDs, WikiProjects, noticeboard discussions, etc.

In other words: You are not allowed to edit the Qalqilya article. Please self revert. Discussions about what should go into the article should be done on the article talk page, Huldra (talk) 20:56, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Reply


Thanks, I was not aware of this limitation. Nevertheless, I think that my contribution is objective and supported by references, If you do not agree with it, please point the flaws and discuss how it should be modified to be accepted. Then, since you seem to have the right to modify the article, I would ask you to go ahead and change it yourself. If on the other hand, no one objects to my edit, I think it would make sense to keep it even If I do not meet the requirements to make an edit. Thanks.
