From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome!
Hi Josep a11! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.
The rule that affects you most as new or IP editor is the prohibition on making any edit related to Palestine/Israel conflict unless you are logged into an account and that account is at least 30 days old and has made at least 500 edits.
This prohibition is broadly construed, so it includes edits such as adding the reaction of a public figure concerning the conflict to their article or noting the position of a company or organization as it relates to the conflict.
The exception to this rule is that you may request a specific change to an article on the talk page of that article or at this page. Please ensure that your requested edit complies with our neutral point of view and reliable sourcing policies, and if the edit is about a living person our policies on biographies of living people as well.
Any edits you make contrary to these rules are likely to be reverted, and repeated violations can lead to your being blocked from editing.
As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful:
Alternatively, the contributing to Wikipedia page covers the same topics.
If you have any questions, we have a friendly space where experienced editors can help you here:

Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Reliable evidence that Weizmann was targeted as retaliation
Hello. Please note I have started a discussion in the talk page - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Weizmann_Institute_of_Science#Was_the_Iranian_attack_in_retaliation_for_the_killing_of_nuclear_scientists?
Your added source in my view does not meet WP:POV and WP:RELIABLE criteria, while the other sources (which I also read) either say nothing about the specific motive or similarly spectulate on them without evidence. The added source states:
"That connection, said analyst Yoel Guzansky, may have factored into its selection as a target.
"The institute symbolises Israeli scientific progress," he said.
"And Iran is sending a message: 'You target our scientists, we'll target yours.'""
So, a single (Israeli) analyst says it -may- have been the cause, and also the article conflates the retaliation motive with the Elbit Systems motive. Can you find better sources that show this more directly? For example, something like this:
"Tehran's top diplomat has claimed that the strike "eliminated" two Israeli military targets.
"Our powerful Armed Forces accurately eliminated an Israeli Military Command, Control & Intelligence HQ and another vital target," Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi said on X, adding that the blast "caused superficial damage to a small section" of the hospital."
When they hit the hospital, they explicitly stated that they targeted (rightly or wrongly) a nearby command center. This is a reliable source that directly shows intent. Is there any such statement about the strike on Weizmann?
Thanks, and I hope we can solve this amicably, 37.142.39.223 (talk) 14:23, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Google Nest Incident (December 16)

However, the omission raised serious privacy concerns, especially for a security device meant to provide protection and peace of mindare not written from a neutral point of view and should be rewritten. It's also not clear to me why this needs to be split off into a separate article, rather than being added as a section to Google Nest.

- Sorry, you are right, I was actually citing this source but didn't do it properly.
- I plan to amend that paragraph like so. Let me know if it is acceptable.
- "However, the omission raised serious privacy concerns, as critics argued that if a microphone was not disclosed in the specs, the same could also happen for other components or features"
- I'm also adding a bit more info on the public's reaction part. Josep a11 (talk) 08:01, 16 December 2025 (UTC)
