Parts of this page are related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a restricted topic. You are not an extended-confirmed user, so you must not edit or discuss this topic anywhere on Wikipedia except to make an edit request. (Additional details are in the message box just below this one.)

Administrators may disregard the above message.
You are seeing this because of the limitations of {{If extended confirmed}} and {{If administrator}}. You can hide this message box by adding the following to a new line of your common.css page: .ECR-edit-request-warning { display: none; }

Warning: active arbitration remedies

The contentious topics procedure applies to this article. Parts of this article relate to the Arab–Israeli conflict, which is a contentious topic. Furthermore, the following rules apply when editing the parts of the page related to the contentious topic:

You must be logged-in and extended-confirmed to edit or discuss this topic on any page (except for making edit requests, provided they are not disruptive)
You may not make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on any edits related to this topic
All participants in formal discussions (RfCs, RMs, etc) within the area of conflict are urged to keep their comments concise, and are limited to 1,000 words per discussion. Citations and quotations (whether from sources, Wikipedia articles, Wikipedia discussions, or elsewhere) do not count toward the word limit.

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator. Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.

If it is unclear which parts of the page are related to this contentious topic, the content in question should be marked within the wiki text by an invisible comment. If no comment is present, please ask an administrator for assistance. If in doubt it is better to assume that the content is covered.

Further information

The exceptions to the extended confirmed restriction are:

Non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace only to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided they are not disruptive.
Non-extended-confirmed editors may not create new articles, but administrators may exercise discretion when deciding how to enforce this remedy on article creations. Deletion of new articles created by non-extended-confirmed editors is permitted but not required.

With respect to the WP:1RR restriction:

Clear vandalism of whatever origin may be reverted without restriction. Also, reverts made solely to enforce the extended confirmed restriction are not considered edit warring.
Editors who violate this restriction may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offence.

After being warned, contentious topics procedure can be used against any editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process. Contentious topic sanctions can include blocks, topic-bans, or other restrictions.
Editors may report violations of these restrictions to the Arbitration enforcement noticeboard.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. When in doubt, don't revert!

Protected class

@Remsense I see you reverted my edit. The reason "Protected class" is ambiguous, is because it can be interpreted as something positive (e.g. royalty can also be considered a "protected class"). It clearly isn't.

No further context is provided about what this "protected class" actually entailed (i.e. second-class citizenship). It is therefore more appropriate to use the term second-class citizens + wiki hyperlink. Alternatively, one could directly use the term dhimmi status in the introduction.

Kind regards, Roffaduft (talk) 08:20, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that the best solution is further elaboration—as it stands, the dynamic in many periods and locales where dhimmi were essentially cultivated as a necessary source of state income is too important to avoid mention entirely, and I would consider the present wording to be less misleading. Remsense ‥ 论 08:23, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your quick reply.

Would you then agree that the following phrasing is more accurate: "in that Jews had dhimmi status."

While I think it is more accurate and appropriate, I'm not sure if it is proper English. Roffaduft (talk) 08:28, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

where Jews had dhimmi status would be perfectly fine by me. Remsense ‥ 论 08:40, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ref Idea

Moved down from the template so that it does not sit there forever and editors have a place to discuss, should they wish to do so —

The following references may be useful when improving this article in the future:

Bloch, René (2016-11-28). "Ancient Anti-Semitism". Oxford Bibliographies. doi:10.1093/obo/9780199840731-0140. Patrick (talk) 21:01, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Cease coverage at the end of the 20th century?

The section here, History_of_antisemitism#Twenty-first_century, is very weak, and the material is already covered much better at Antisemitism#Contemporary_antisemitism. We could alert readers to this with a hatnote at the top of the article. Thoughts?

Cheers, Patrick (talk) 15:47, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Final section?

History_of_antisemitism#Antisemitism_in_the_English-speaking_world is a long description of a single essay. Aside from being WP:UNDUE, it breaks with the structure of our TOC. Eliminating this would also help with length of the article body, which at 12,460 words, is at odds with WP:TOOBIG.

But does anyone have any ideas of what to do with it? Doesn't appear to be notable enough to be its own article, but this much material is probably also undue at William Rubinstein.

Cheers, Patrick (talk) 15:56, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bias

this a very biased and terroristic way of viewing the Occupied Palestine Conflict. the Zionist terrorist regime have been slaughtering Semite babies and women for almost a 100 years yet you ignore that in your description. in 1948 Nazi Israeli terrorist stole the homes of over 750,000 Palestinians (Semites) and forced them into refugee camps. and even up to this day, the Zionist terrorist group destroys the refugee camps while kidnapping 1000s of Semitic children with no charges, no legal representation. and no visitation from their parents.. October 7th 2023 was a justified retaliation towards an apartheid Occupying terrorist group in which 100s of the 1200 killed, were in fact killed by the Nazi IDF terrorist.. 70.61.20.126 (talk) 17:50, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, please take some time to familiarize yourself with the policies and guidelines of Wikipedia, in particular, WP:NPOV. I will also leave a note about edit warring on your talk page. Thanks, Patrick (talk) 18:00, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
