Important notice
editThis is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
Additionally, I'll note that you seem to have a very strong ideology on the matter, and it pervades through a lot of your comments on talk pages (a lot of them are also of the unhelpful "I personally think [X controversial statement]", which does not help either achieve a more balanced article, or foster a constructive discussion, since it gives the impression that you've already made up your mind on how we should describe this). I'd suggest you take a look at our policies and guidelines, most specifically WP:NOTADVOCACY (for why this is not an acceptable way to proceed) and WP:NPOV (for how exactly we deal with opinions and neutrality - in short, we base ourselves not on our personal opinions but on what reliable sources say, with extra weight given to sources independent of the involved parties [taking some time to let the dust settle is likely also a good idea]). If you find it difficult to distance yourself from your opinions in this matter, I'd suggest you try another, less controversial area.

Your user page...
edit...is needlessly inflammatory and divisive. See Wikipedia:User pages for guidance on what user pages are. See WP:POLEMIC in particular - statements such as "If you think I agree with you, it was sarcasm." and "May your soul be tormented" are grossly out of line, as is "When I talk to you I assume that you are a political groups working for a foreign government ( probably Qatar), and otherwise you are probably unskilled and unqualified" (see WP:AGF for what you actually need to assume)... Because of these concerns, I have removed these statements from your talk page and suggest you take some time to consider the problems with your edits. Also note that a user coming across your user page could interpret it as a personal attack - and these are strictly forbidden. Thanks, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 02:51, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- It is not insulting anyone, and it is actually empowering people. As I can see for your past remarks, you really do like taking everything with perspectives. --Rectangular dome (talk) 03:04, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
