Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Ashkenazi Jews may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 11:55, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi...

Allow me to explain myself more clearly. Ashkenazi Jews do have Southern and Central/Eastern European blood. Nobody disputes this. However, that line in particular pertains to their main ethnic origins and identity, both of which are directly traceable to the Israelites of the Levant. Very few (if any) identify themselves, culturally or otherwise, with Southern Europe. You can't just add in every single piece of ancestry to the lead like that. Otherwise, every article of this nature would be a big mess. It's best to keep it simplified.

The related ethnic groups bracket pertains to cultural, racial, linguistic, and geographical similarities. Therefore, the aforementioned Levantines, Arabs, etc would be included, but not Southern or Eastern Europeans. Hope that made sense.Evildoer187 (talk) 14:53, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. Guy355 (talk) 15:05, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Request reason:

I'm not a sockpuppet, I heard of Infantom only a couple of days ago, I simply agreed with his statement, that doesn't mean I'm a sockpuppet.

Decline reason:

That's not a convincing denial, especially considering the evidence presented here. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:34, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was active before May, I simply didn't log in, I remained an ID user. The reason we logged during the same time is most likely because we live in the same country i.e Israel. The fact that we both created our accounts on December is a mere coincidence. I supported his arguments because I agreed with him, I used my mind to agree with him, not because I'm actually him. If I was really his sockpuppet, then why did I make contact with him only a couple of days ago? Truth be told, I do disagree with him on some things. Guy355 (talk) 20:30, 11 July 2014 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was active before May, I simply didn't log in, I remained an ID user. The reason we logged during the same time is most likely because we live in the same country i.e Israel. The fact that we both created our accounts in December doesn't necessarily make me his sockpuppet, I bet many people created their accounts in December. I supported his arguments because I agreed with him (agreeing with someone necessarily makes me him?) not because I'm actually him. I didn't edit a lot because 1. I didn't have a lot to edit. 2. When I did edit a lot I didn't log in, that was around April/May in the article "Ashkenazi Jews". If I was really his sockpuppet, then why did I make contact with him only a couple of days ago? Truth be told, I do disagree with him on some things, for example, I do think that there's non Semitic influence in modern Hebrew. If it's any help, my name is Guy Jacks. Thanks in advance.

No, it's not a help. Do you really want your email where everyone can see it if it's not helping? If not, you should submit a revdel request to WP:OVERSIGHT. Origamite^{is out right now} 12:27, 12 July 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Origamian (talk • contribs)
