Your recent edits
editHello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Notification
editPlease carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.In addition, as a result of a recent ruling, all anonymous IP editors and accounts with less than 500 edits and 30 days tenure are prohibited from editing any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Disambiguation link notification for March 7
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Flatbush, Brooklyn, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mir Yeshiva. 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.

"radical leftists, and BSD activists"
editJust curious. "BSD" = "Bi-sexual Democrats"? BTW, I love the irony when you write "I have no political ax to grind, unlike our group of radical leftists, and BSD activists on here." BMK (talk) 19:07, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
- I think I meant the boycott and sanction movement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by an unknown user 23:44, 17 March 2016
- Oh? How do you get from "boycott and sanction movement" to "BSD? {the "D" isn't even near the "M" on the keyboard), and how the heck is that related to "radical leftists"? Or were you just sort of randomly lashing our at bad things? BMK (talk) 04:04, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
It was a slip from BSD which was Berkley Software Design. The Boycott and Saction movement is not left wing? Who know? If you want to argue that, you'll need to argue it with someone else. I'm not interested in the argument. I base that opinion on the observed posts of the admins involved both on their use pages and in comments they have made. Mrbrklyn (talk) 14:44, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah, I have no doubt whatsoever that you hold that opinion. BMK (talk) 17:03, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
OK.... I on the other hand will defer from making any snarling opeds, or condem you for any opinions you may or may not hold. I'm not sure if I'm being attacked here or not, which is pretty cute, but I still refuse to argue any of these issues in this venue.

Just to be clear, are you in favor of the boycott and sanction movement against the Jews in Israel? I just want to know if your in that category of political activists. Mrbrklyn (talk) 19:43, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Your "missing" edits
editIt's very unlikely that Wikipedia "lost" some of your edits. As I pointed out at ARCA, the edits you thought were "missing" there had actually been moved to another section, so it might be worthwhile considering other possibilities.
For instance, you refer to having a "brood" who also use your computer to work on Wikipedia. (Actually, you said something about "the wikipedea resources and website... not to mention testing the wikipedia software", which I hope does not mean that they are doing something that's not allowed by Wikipedia policies, like socking or breaching experiments.) Is it possible that one of your "brood" left the computer logged onto their account (I know you don't let them use your account, because that is not allowed), so that when you made your edits they were credited to that account and not to yours? Somewhere I remember reading that you claim to have created articles and merged them and done other things which are not credited to your account. If you can recall the name of one of those articles, you could look through its history and find an edit which you believe you made and see who it is credited to.
That would at least give you some idea of why the number of edits credited to you is lower than you think it should be, but, unfortunately, it won't help you much in being allowed to edit Hebron because, as ArbCom is in the process of confirming, you simply don't have the requisite number of edits under this account, and it would be extremely difficult to prove that edits made under a different account name are actually yours. If my theory is correct, that may primarily be on you for not practicing good computer security with your "brood". BMK (talk) 20:48, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
There is no doubt. I have over 500 edits, over a decade ago. Most of it was writing Copyright and Free Software articles and most than a little compsci and math. It is all gone. Then, I lost the password for my Mrbrklyn account and made a Mrbrklyn2 on advice of an admin. I made another 300+ edits with that account. And then my divorce started and went domant for a while. I HAVE NO DOUBT that the count is wrong. BTW, I was also involved in the shakedown of the spftware platform for quite a while.
Anyway, it gets a point where you have acess the value of this. It wasn't always like this.
I enjoyed our talk and you should have a Good Shabbos, or weekend, or St Patricks Day.

Notification
editAs a result of your continued defiance of arbitration sanctions, I have reported you on the Arbitration Enforcement noticeboard. RolandR (talk) 01:31, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Please see the outcome of the AE request. You are not permitted to edit Irasel/Palestine related articles until you have 500 edits. If you ignore this, the outcome will be a block. Spartaz Humbug! 20:44, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
Blocked
editIf you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}
. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
- This edit clearly falls under ARBPIA. Please don't test the edges as you will inevitably get blocked again. Spartaz Humbug! 07:51, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- concerning your email. Editing the blp of the founder of an ngo that is concerned with distortions in human rights reporting in the arab israeli conflict is clearly bound by abpia. Spartaz Humbug! 09:41, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
No nothing I posted did that, and the fact that you attack a standard academic biography speaks volumes of the basic problem that exists here. Whether his work has distortions or not is an issue of academic peer review, not for an Wikipedia editor to decide, other than quoting the review articles, such as they exist. I didn't edit or comment on ANYTHING like that and you childishly went WAY over your bounds to be vengeful and spiteful
- and this is exactly why we do not want inexperienced editors involved in this sensitive editing environment. Spartaz Humbug! 10:24, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- That is a BS excuse. I'm not inexperienced, and your not motivated by any amount of sensible considerations other than upholding one POV over others. This is why Wikipedia is losing its volunteer editors who are sick of being trolled. Not everyone is 20 years old and stupid. What I said was correct. What you did was wrong.

500/30
editSo, the hated 500/30 rule claims its first good faith victim.
Hi there. I'm awfully sorry about the way you've been forced out of editing on the Hebron article and others on this technicality. The editing restrictions were imposed on accounts with a low number of edits (under 500) after vociferous lobbying of the Arbitration Committee by some of the very problem editors you may have encountered, ostensibly to do away with sockpuppets of banned editors. In practice it also conveniently means that new and casual editors can't shove ther oars in and take biased articles "off-message", and it's mostly new editors that naively attempt this, as agnostic veteran editors here simply won't touch the subject.
If it's any consolation, you are right about the horrendous bias problems in that article - particularly the decidedly negative tone of the coverage of the Jewish community in Hebron. The entire topic riddled with dubious claims cited to ideologically-driven NGOs, biased news agencies and journalists, and various academics with strong political views on the matter. That article, and for that matter, the entire topic area, is totally controlled by "activist" editors and "advocacy ducks". As you can see, much has been written about these sorts of editors, but little has been done about them.
I can only suggest you edit elsewhere until you have enough edits that they can't call your editing into question. There's plenty to do on Jewish issues - and Israel articles outside of the conflict are also unrestricted.
Most importantly, don't edit any more in conflict related areas, or you'll be blocked again. You should be able to get yourself unblocked early if you agree not to edit there anymore. To do so, put the following under the block notice above: {{unblock | reason=your reason here ~~~~}}

:What do you mean by changing an IP non-logged in comment to my account
? —DoRD (talk) 12:38, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- I mean I wrote something without being logged in and then cut it all out, logged and and re-entered it. I was actually having trouble logging in:
- `There have been 5 failed attempts to log in to your account since the last time you logged in. If it wasn't you, please make sure your account has a strong password.`
- Despite Mrbrklyn's claim that at the sock investigation that, "My IP address is 96.57.23.83 and 96.57.23.82. ... I have no knowledge of any other IP addresses," we can all see that, as the closing admin said of all the IPs, "those IPs are obviously them," referring to 173.52.38.97 and https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Special:Contributions/166.84.1.2 166.84.1.2]. Highly identical edits, edits to virtually no other articles, same intemperate tone of voice. On a talk-page debate especially, such sock-puppetry is extremely problematic. --Tenebrae (talk) 15:34, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
I doubt that. My style is fairly dyslexic. You have just taken this personally and are looking for excuses to block someone who you disagree with. According to you, I am also RS Martin, and have used that as an alias since 2007. That is how over the top you have gotten. You also continue to just make things up when they don't satify you. 173.52.38.97 has TWO pages they edited. Now is a personal bio that I have zero affiliation with, and the other is American Flagg. That does not constitute "Highly identical edits, edits to virtually no other articles, same intemperate tone of voice" The other supposed address has DOZENS of edits and pages, which I have zero affiliation with. You used your superior knowledge of wilipedias archain mechanism to styme debate and continue with a article that is poorly written, poorly sourced, and inaccurate.

You can now accuse me of being this alias as well.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by talk:Mrbrklyn (talk • contribs)
- That you refuse to follow the clearly stated policies and guidelines of Wikipedia that 99% of the rest of us follow suggests the problem is not with the rest of Wikipedia and Wikipedians.
- I would not still be on Wikipedia after 12 years and 140,000 edits if I habitually went around "taking [things] personally" and making up "excuses" to block someone I disagree with. The rest of the community would never have allowed that. Indeed, I started an RfC at the article talk page, which is exactly what we should do with disagreements: begin a discussion and try to reach a consensus. I'd ask that you respect the process and not continue edit-warring when your block expires, since admins will take note of that. --Tenebrae (talk) 18:52, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
- You do take things personally and you troll users and you are bully. 12 years is not a long time, and 140,00 edits is not an excuse for your abusiveness. Early in this dispute I asked you to help improve and all you did was be to be disruptive, to engage in an edit war, and to be rude. Nothing has changed. This has nothing to do with the guidlines. The first guildine is to be civil. You have not been civil. And I broke no "rules". I've just run into a buzzsaw of a wikipedea obsessive compulsive user show has staked his entire ego to cradling his comics section because I had the nerve to try to outline the importance of a specific comic title and somehow offended you. Your FIRST communication talked about me in the third person. That is UNCIVIL and RUDE.
And the other admins should take note how you crashed the Howard Chaykin article as well, for no cause or justification having to do with content.

Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict...please fill out my survey?
editHello :) I am writing my MA dissertation on Wikipedia Wars and the Israel-Palestine conflict, and I noticed that you have contributed to those pages. My dissertation will look at the process of collaborative knowledge production on the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the effect it has on bias in the articles. This will involve understanding the profiles and motivations of editors, contention/controversy and dispute resolution in the talk pages, and bias in the final article.
For more information, you can check out my meta-wiki research page or my user page, where I will be posting my findings when I am done.
I would greatly appreciate if you could take 5 minutes to fill out this quick survey before 8 August 2021.
Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and anonymous. There are no foreseeable risks nor benefits to you associated with this project.
Thanks so much,
