A tag has been placed on A brief History of the 12 tribes of Israel, caucus Mountains requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 20:58, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

March 2014[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Israelites, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Your insertion appears to be original research. Regardless, please refrain from edit warring it back in. Persistent edit warriors can lose their editing privileges. Hertz1888 (talk) 22:41, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent edits do not conform to our policies. For more information on this, see Wikipedia's policies on vandalism and limits on acceptable additions. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the "sandbox" rather than in articles.
If you still have questions, there is a new contributor's help page, or you can write {{helpme}} below this message along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia.
I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 22:49, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Israelites shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Hertz1888 (talk) 23:56, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
This is your last warning. You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Israelites. Shadowjams (talk) 00:18, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

Explanation[edit]
Please note that:
- Original research and synthesis are out of the scope of Wikipedia; and
- Wikipedia may not be used for any kind of promotional or advertising.
Since you are apparently trying to use Wikipedia to promote your theory on the history of Israel, your contributions violate both these rules. This is why they are being deleted or reverted, and this is why you are now blocked for trying to add them to various articles. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 05:16, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:58, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
Note: I have changed the blocking period to indefinite in view of apparent additional vandalism at the German Wikipedia by an editor using this username. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 12:36, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
Email from user Archduke1 received by User Wtmitchell[edit]
Following is a requote of the second of two emails I received yesterday from User Archduke1. As noted in the email, it is a revised version of an earlier email.
Dear Sir,
You and Wikipedia are- a good example, of modern day- scholars and political correct- historical revisionists! Wikipedia, are, unfair- and not impartial in their articles- and poor scholars - to say-the least, They are poor, fact-finding academic- you and Wikipedia, are demonstrations- of what is bad and wrong with today’s scholarship. I would not have- anything to do, with you-if you paid, me a million dollars. Wikipedia and you are without, fair or impartial- moral and ethical conviction- To say, I vandalised Wikipedia- is a- farce, when my research, on the 12 tribes of Israel, is based- on sound scholarship-, you are- empty and void. In addition, you blocked me based on opinion- rather then objective opinion.
Kind regards
Archduke Bishop Dr. <personally identifying information elided> Th.M., Ph.D.

Revised
I've elided personally identifying information from the signature in the email. I'm not posting this here in order to make any sort of point about the email or about its content -- I simply want to make a record of this within Wikipedia because at some point in the future I will purge the copy of this message which is currently in my personal email inbox.
