Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the [[Wikipedia:Five pillars|purpose of Wikipedia]], satisfy any [[Wikipedia:Etiquette|standard of behavior]], or follow any [[Wikipedia:List of policies|normal editorial process]]. If you continue to misconduct yourself on pages relating to this topic, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read at the "[[Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Palestine-Israel articles#Final decision|Final decision]]" section of the decision page.

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions]], with the appropriate sections of [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures]], and with the case decision page before making any further edits to the pages in question.

Hello, Sepsis II, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

  Introduction
 5    The five pillars of Wikipedia
  How to edit a page
  Help
  Tips
  How to write a great article
  Manual of Style
  Fun stuff...

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! 

If you want your edits to stick it would be a good idea to read through some of the links above. Importantly always provide a reference for anything you add that may be subject to challenge. Also if editing in controversial subjects such as the Israel/Palestine conflict it might be worthwhile to make one edit at a time, then non-controversial edits will not be undone, while more controversial ones can be discussed further on the talk page. Another important thing to remember is not to edit war: In topics related to the Israel/Palestine conflict, you are only allowed to make one revert per article in 24 hours after that you should go to the article's talk page. Unfortunately even if you have good intentions, if you do not stick to the rules you will find that you won't be editing in the topic area for very long.

Since this article is about the Arab-Israeli conflict, it is under a WP:1RR restriction. See the {{ARBPIA}} template on the talk page. Please be aware that you have made two edits on 16 November that removed material from the article. Some people might view this as two reverts in 24 hours. Caution will be appreciated, especially since you are a brand new editor who is already removing warning messages from your talk page. Your edits on I-P articles may cause people to quickly stereotype you as a warrior for a cause if you are not careful. If you think you see an opportunity to correct bias you will need to work in a very patient manner and get consensus for your changes. The page at WP:BATTLE explains why obvious militancy is not favored here, and can even lead to sanctions. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 02:59, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The neutral point of view article states that neutrality is nonnegotiable. I am glad to see that that is a rule on wikipedia. I will do my best to enforce it (ie by removing clear violations such as labelling people terrorists) and I hope you will help. The "warning" I removed was a warrior trying to threaten me, that particular editor has such interest in keeping the article biased that he would rather put back in spelling and grammatical errors than allow neutral edits. I hope you will speak to each of these editors about their editing habits as well. Sepsis II (talk) 03:07, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
