Stop: You may only use this page to create an edit request

This page is related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a restricted topic. You are not an extended-confirmed user, so you must not edit or discuss this topic anywhere on Wikipedia except to make an edit request. (Additional details are in the message box just below this one.)

Administrators may disregard the above message.
You are seeing this because of the limitations of {{If extended confirmed}} and {{If administrator}}. You can hide this message box by adding the following to a new line of your common.css page: .ECR-edit-request-warning { display: none; }

Warning: active arbitration remedies

The contentious topics procedure applies to this article. This article is related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, which is a contentious topic. Furthermore, the following rules apply when editing this article:

You must be logged-in and extended-confirmed to edit or discuss this topic on any page (except for making edit requests, provided they are not disruptive)
You may not make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on any edits related to this topic
All participants in formal discussions (RfCs, RMs, etc) within the area of conflict are urged to keep their comments concise, and are limited to 1,000 words per discussion. Citations and quotations (whether from sources, Wikipedia articles, Wikipedia discussions, or elsewhere) do not count toward the word limit.

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator. Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.

Further information

The exceptions to the extended confirmed restriction are:

Non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace only to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided they are not disruptive.
Non-extended-confirmed editors may not create new articles, but administrators may exercise discretion when deciding how to enforce this remedy on article creations. Deletion of new articles created by non-extended-confirmed editors is permitted but not required.

With respect to the WP:1RR restriction:

Clear vandalism of whatever origin may be reverted without restriction. Also, reverts made solely to enforce the extended confirmed restriction are not considered edit warring.
Editors who violate this restriction may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offence.

After being warned, contentious topics procedure can be used against any editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process. Contentious topic sanctions can include blocks, topic-bans, or other restrictions.
Editors may report violations of these restrictions to the Arbitration enforcement noticeboard.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. When in doubt, don't revert!

I made a neutral decision.

I wrote: "De facto" Israel/... to write "PLN" is controversial decision, which is not neutral,and says directly,that Jerusalem is owned by the Palestinians. I find it ridiculous, that some Palestinians trolls dictate Wikipedia's policy. According, this wiki's policy, the articles mustn't be subjective. 84.228.90.144 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 00:11, 14 August 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Read the column header. The Palestinians were awarded it. Israel isn't even a member.--Peter cohen (talk) 13:01, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dead links

Away from the discussion related to Jerusalem's name and territorial ownership, I just wanted to point out that this article contains a number of dead links (the Al Quds 2009 and site and the article related to Sana's nomination as Arab Capital of Culture, for instance), so it would be greatly beneficial if we could work on updating these. --Nevborg (talk) 17:23, 22 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Update

2017 Edition was in Luxor, Egypt and 2018 Edition is in Oujda, Morocco. Anyone can update it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.88.51.116 (talk) 11:14, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
