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.

Different model[edit]

The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs[edit]

The Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs is a non neutral advocacy website, it shouldn't be used as a source for relations between Israel and Syria. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 12:59, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is pretty rich, coming from some who repeatedly uses ALMARSAD and other pro-Syrain advocacy groups as references. Anyway, there's no policy that requires sources to be "neutral". 24.23.193.232 (talk) 16:21, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They do however need to be references. nableezy - 03:50, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ceasefire line[edit]

This image show the ceasefire line:[1] not border between Israel and Syria. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 22:09, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, there is no border between these two countries, only a cease fire line. Robert Brockway (talk) 10:59, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Russia israel syria china quadrangle weapons dealing[edit]

Russia sells arms to syria, russia and israel jointly sold aircraft to china, and the chinese defense minister was able to visit Damascus and fly directly to israel after that, discussing military ties with both countries.

I read the link. It is probably simple misreporting of the type that is common in news articles due to the pressure on journalists these days. Even peace mediators that both sides know are in the area are careful to go via a third country when flying. I expect that flying directly over the Israel-Syria cease fire line is simply a very dangerous thing to do and it is avoided for this reason. Robert Brockway (talk) 10:58, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Israel–Syria relations[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Israel–Syria relations's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "timesofisrael.com":

From Israeli–Syrian ceasefire line incidents during the Syrian Civil War: "Israel kills two Syrian gunmen on Golan border". The Times of Israel. Retrieved 30 October 2014.
From Indonesia–Israel relations: Kayla J Adams (July 6, 2012). "Indonesia to informally upgrade its relations with Israel via ambassador-ranked diplomat in Ramallah". Times of Israel.
From Foreign relations of Israel: Ahren, Raphael (6 July 2012). "Indonesia to informally upgrade its relations with Israel via ambassador-ranked diplomat in Ramallah". The Times of Israel.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 18:22, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Alternate analysis[edit]

Why is this section here? Is the statement of one CIA operative a reliable source? I don't think it is notable, and seems rather silly considering the evidence against the claim that Israel and Syria are secret allies. AveryMittag (talk) 11:26, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
