Hi all,
I am not getting anywhere with recent arrival Leumi. Despite his politeness and his good faith shown on Talk pages and his willingness to negotiate, he continues to try to insert pro-Israel/anti-Palestine bias in many of the articles he works on. He is either unwilling or unable to learn NPOV. Normal channels of communication appear to work but have no effect. (He is another young teenager with Asperger's; maybe this has something to do with it.) Last night I spent more than five hours over two articles [[The Holocaust Industry]] and [[Palestinian refugee]] endlessly trying to convince him that his edits were unacceptable. Others including Daniel Quinlan and Merv backed me up without our making any real progress. Finally, mercifully, the articles were protected by Angela.
The two above along with [[West Bank]] are now protected. My feeling his Leumi will continue to try to insert his POV as soon as they are free again. I would like a joint community action on how to do deal with this, before they are unprotected, because it is too tiring, too emotionally exhausting to have to deal with this on one's own, article by article. We have a user, Zero0000, who is the Real Thing, a historian with vast knowledge of Middle East history from original sources, and he is also spending far too much time have to protect articles from the infatigable efforts of Leumi to slant them..
Please help out, people. See my my documentation at [[User:Viajero/Leumi]]. Respond at [[User_Talk:Viajero/Leumi]]. Check every edit this kid makes. Leave messages on his Talk page. We are going to have to exert a vast amount of pressure on him if he is to become a valuable contributor. Mr Natural Health is a court jester compared to Leumi. If I end up having to hold the fort on my own, I'll get burnt out. (And Angela will be furious with me if she has to add me to [[Missing Wikipedians]] ;-))
Thanks.
V.
