...and congratulations on your first submission, Neve ur, a good start. Marasmusine 17:15, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

sign your name(~~Shlomo Agassi~~) {{helpme}} Info Box for Kibbutz (English) has limited number of field types - how can fields be expanded to mirror descriptors and data for Municiplaities, or even Kibbutzim (Hebrew)

For instance, can pushpin map be added to Kibbutz InfoBox? |pushpin_map = Israel |pushpin_label_position = |pushpin_map_caption = |pushpin_mapsize =135

The code for the template is here: Template:Infobox Kibbutz; you might like to discuss the change on the talk page there first. Marasmusine 07:45, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Israel

You are invited to join WikiProject Israel, an attempt to build and maintain an extensive and neutral database of Israel related articles on Wikipedia. To join, simply add your name to the members section of WikiProject Israel.

Hello! I have noticed some of your nice Israel-related contributions. I have listed the new articles you created in the Project's new articles page. As I sometimes miss new articles, please consider posting them yourself, and inform other interested editors. Derwig 17:58, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Arad, Israel

Thanks for making edits to the Arad, Israel article. However, you have misquoted the Jewish Agency source. It does not say that Arad was founded in 1956. That information is related to Tamar, another location in the Negev desert. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 19:44, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

FYI, you haven't been citing sources properly in terms of markup, I have fixed the problems in Arad, Israel so far. Please see WP:CIT for more information. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 13:30, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Borys vs Borislav

In the matter of fact Borys (or better Boris) etymologically can be derivative of Borislav (there are other versions of its origin) but definitely it is not "short form variation" of Borislav. In the same time name Boris itself has a short form variation (diminutive) which is Borya. References: 1, 2, 3, see also 4...

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Oketz pin.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Oketz pin.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Arad, Israel #2

Just wondering, where did you get Arad's co-ordinates? They were completely incorrect, and I'm concerned that there are other such mistakes in Israel-related articles, in which case I'd like to correct them.

Secondly, please be careful to include the most exact population figure available (e.g. 23,300) and not a rounded one (e.g. 23,000).

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Eyal Aerial View.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Eyal Aerial View.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VegitaU 15:17, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox Kibbutz

I would bring up the issue on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Israel rather than the template's talk page - very few people are likely to read it there. I don't mind it being used for moshavim too, but I don't think any additions are particularly needed. Do Moshavim have affiliations (i.e. an equivalent of the Kibbutz Movement)? If not, it might be a good idea to make the affiliation line disappear if nothing is input. пﮟოьεԻ 57 08:16, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Aharon Shulov book cover.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Aharon Shulov book cover.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 19:36, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to Airedale terrier

Re: WP is not a random collection of information - there was nothing randon about the references, nor the images. If you had refered to the item, 'Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files', I might better understand your reasoning. As it stands, my logic for adding the stamps was to illustrate that the breed is recognized around the world, and conforms to a certain type and look. And re the references, I agree that some of the items were not as pertinent as others, but my question is: How did you determine which publications are more pertinent than the other? It seems that some of the removal was purely random - if you have a means of determining (perhaps you have more than my 15 years of experience with the breed, or have reviewed more dog publications?), please pass the insight on to me, so I do not make the same mistake again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SZAgassi (talk • contribs)

By my reasoning, an unnecessarily large collection of images of Airedale terriers constitutes a random collection of images. You are also correct that 'Wikipedia is not a mirror' applies. My filter to remove excess images was the crudest possible: simple reversion. If you want to remove some images and add others, please discuss this on Talk:Airedale terrier.
