Re: Hamas

[edit]

I understand your objections, but I find it helpful when I initially disagree with something to think about it like this: on the one hand, I don't want someone saying something bad about whatever to be featured - on the other hand, showing them saying that that illustrates as much about them as well. So to here, including it isn't necessarily anti-Hamas. I think someone actually left a comment on Talk illustrating the other side of the coin, how Abbas using that language is hypocritical since he preaches the same thing, and so it is clear to the reader that he is just playing politics.

If I were the only person disagreeing with you I might consider the change, but it seems that it makes sense to a few of us that it go there, as I do think he is significant. But whether you agree with me or not, try to look at it from both sides. Cheers, TewfikTalk 07:17, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your comments as well, and I hope that we can always keep things cool and dispassionate. TewfikTalk 07:49, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

[edit]

It's so kind of you to pass on such positive comments and encouragement. I really do appreciate it a lot. Sometimes I wonder if my contributions here accomplish anything at all, and because it's not paid work and I've encountered so much in the way of equivocation and abuse, I've often thought of scaling back or leaving altogether. But when I get a note like yours, it makes it all worth it, since it reminds that that even the smallest efforts can be seen by some to make a difference. What's that saying about a butterfly who flaps it's wings? ;) Anyway, thanks again. Tiamuttalk 14:50, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just notifying you, that as you have been involved in the discussion regarding the Second Intifada article, which is now the subject of a MedCab case, I'm notifying you of this as you may wish to partake in this case to discuss a resolution to this dispute. Feel free to leave a comment on my talk page. Regards, Steve Crossin (talk) 23:32, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:43, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
