Elvis is Christian

edit

Hi, Shmuel, you seem to confuse two things, Jewish identification, which is a halakhic matter, by which Elvis is clearly Jewish, though his Jewish neighbors tended to treat him as a Shabbes goy, i.e. a non-Jew (and he wouldn't even have been prosecuted by the Nuremberg laws), and Jewish identity: this is what makes him, along with Margareth Albright, Neve Campbell and others "Jewish Christians."

You have been temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia as a result of your disruptive edits. You are free to make constructive edits after the block has expired, but please note that vandalism (including page blanking or addition of random text), spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, personal attacks; and repeated, blatant violations of our policies concerning neutral point of view and biographies of living persons will not be tolerated. - Caribbean~H.Q. 16:39, 15 January 2008 (UTC)Reply


I'm contacting you to see if you understand why you have been blocked. I'm also writing to see why you insist on putting non-free images on your user page, and also why you keep trying to move your user page into the main article space. Basically... what gives with your most recent edits? I just want to make sure you understand our underlying policies and guidelines which resulted in your block, and to see if you understand how your edits were disruptive.

Categorization of living people

edit

Hi, I just wanted to make sure you were aware of the guideline for categorization of people. According to this guideline, you should not add religious categories to articles about living people unless a) the person self-identifies as that religion (and this is documented in a reliable source) and b) the person's notability is partially due to their religion (and this must also be documented in a reliable source). If you have any questions, please ask me. Karanacs (talk) 22:09, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

The Jewish categories cover ethnicity as well as religion, thus they are subject to whatever guidelines are present at categories like Category:Italian-Americans, not to the guidelines above. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 22:25, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
WP:BLP still exists. At the very least, you cannot add a category about someone's religion or ethnicity without citing a reliable source. Some of the articles didn't mention the subject being "Jewish" except in the unsourced category, which is unacceptable. If you are going to be adding categories like this to articles on living people, make sure that it is verifiable. See WP:V, WP:CS and WP:ATT. -Andrew c [talk] 15:35, 18 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
I noticed you are STILL adding unsourced categories about living people. If we do not have a reliable citation in the article to state that these people are Jewish, we cannot add these categories. I noticed you also did some edit warring over this by reverting multiple times. WP:BLP is something that we take seriously, and unsourced content about living people simply CANNOT be added to articles (and this included categories). If this type of editing continues, you may well be blocked per our blocking policy. This is the last time that I will warn you about this. If you have any questions about how wikipedia works, please ask.-Andrew c [talk] 14:17, 11 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
If you look at Guy Béart, you'll notice that the article does not mention anything about being Jewish. You'd need to find a reliable source which states that fact, and then add it to the article before you can add those categories. The first two people you mentioned have sources in the article regarding being Jewish, so those categories are fine. However, if there are no sources to back up the categories, you simply cannot add them. I don't mean to come off harsh. I just want you to understand and follow our policy. I hope this helps.-Andrew c [talk] 14:27, 11 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Replaceable fair use Image:ElsaZylberstein.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:ElsaZylberstein.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media 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 this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Andrew c [talk] 01:42, 7 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Zac Efron. Thank you. Category needs to be referenced in the article. NrDg 04:30, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I also reverted all your additions of Category:Ashkenazi Jews added to bio articles today. A sampling of the articles showed that none of them had referenced information in the article that supported that categorization. --NrDg 04:39, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Ashkenazi origin

edit

What! Read a little article Ashkenazi Jews, and you will see their origins, the German Jews, Polish Jews etc are Ashkenazi origin, and the person I categorize her Ashkenazi read their article, or of anti-Semitism what?--SamuelM555 (talk) 04:44, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I only read the article that has the category added. If the information is true about that person it needs to be referenced information in THAT article. If it is not in that person's article you can't support the categorization. If you believe that information is important to that person and can back it up add the information to the article first, then add the category. The list article is unreferenced and is not usable as a reference in a bio article. --NrDg 04:49, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
The categorization is in relation to the origin of the country of origin of his family, a report by the article describing who is or is not Ashkenazi. I do not understand, there is this same categorization for Sephardic Jews, and there's never been any problem.--SamuelM555 (talk) 04:52, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
If you can justify it add that conclusion to the text of the article before adding the category. I am not going to synthesize information in the article when I check for correct categorization. I want to see the category directly mentioned in the article - with references, before I'll accept is as a category. We already have enough problems correctly identifying religion and ethnicity and descent. Get it right in the article first, then categorize. The categories do not stand alone from the article content. Lack of proper references in other articles is not a justification. It is important to get this right for people as some people do get offended by being labeled with the wrong religious and ethnic background. It is better not to have the information at all than to get it wrong. --NrDg 05:05, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
The article that triggered my interest was Zac Efron where you added the category under discussion. That category is a cross between Jewish background and descent. Only one of these is mentioned in that article so the category can't be supported. --NrDg 05:12, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
I categorized him because he was in this page, List of Ashkenazi Jews --SamuelM555 (talk) 05:34, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
That page is unreferenced so you can't use it as a source of information. Wiki pages do not meet the WP:RS requirements for reliable sources. Please make sure that the pages you categorize actually have the phrase Ashkenazi Jew in the article. Categorizing Jewish people based on country of origin sounds too much like classifying Christians by country of origin - Lutherans for German, Catholic for French, Anglican for British when that is just a tendency not a determinate. --NrDg 18:16, 12 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Yet again, I ask you not to add cats that are a violation of biographies of living people. The policy for categorising people by religion is quite clear. One Night In Hackney303 20:38, 31 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Yet again, do not violate this policy. Wikipedia:BLP#Categories says clearly:
Category tags regarding religious beliefs and sexual orientation should not be used unless two criteria are met:
  • The subject publicly self-identifies with the belief or orientation in question;
  • The subject's beliefs or sexual orientation are relevant to the subject's notable activities or public life, according to reliable published sources.
The source must say the subject self-identifies, not some random person simply claiming they are a particular religion. One Night In Hackney303 20:57, 31 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
Once again, you are ignoring BLP which is a non-negotiable policy. Adding Jewish categories to David Beckham and other articles is a violation of BLP, please stop. One Night In Hackney303 02:00, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Read exaxctly what is written above, direct from the policy. One Night In Hackney303 02:04, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
I could not care less whether his mother was Jewish, Sikh or a Jedi, and neither could policy. I don't see why you are having such difficulty understanding simple words.
  • The subject publicly self-identifies with the belief or orientation in question - Him saying he is "half-Jewish" doesn't meet this.
  • The subject's beliefs or sexual orientation are relevant to the subject's notable activities or public life, according to reliable published sources - where's this? Nowhere to be found.
If, and only if, both those are satified does a religious category get added to any article. One Night In Hackney303 02:11, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Again, I could not care less about tattoos, Who Is a Jew?, his mother, his cat, or any other irrelevance you care to bring up. Religious categories are only used if the two criteria above apply, it's that simple. One Night In Hackney303
Irrelevant, per above. And do not, ever, under any circumstances whatsoever add back text I have removed from my talk page. One Night In Hackney303 21:10, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:SummerRoberts.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Files missing description details

edit
Dear uploader: The media files you uploaded as:

are missing a description and/or other details on their image description pages. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors make better use of the images, and they will be more informative to readers.

If the information is not provided, the images may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

If you have any questions, please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Theo's Little Bot (error?) 22:57, 12 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
