Riots over mentions of Israel

[edit]

Not sure if I may be the only one, but there had been on and off edit warrings due to mentions of Israel. I personally think that anyone who tries erasing Israel's information need a straight warning or maybe even a block. Transporting the Israel-Palestine conflict here is certainly unethical.

This page has been a source of ethno-nationalist edit warring for years. I'm afraid that's nothing new. If it gets bad, you can go to WP:RFPP and request the page be protected to prevent vandalism, but mostly there's enough people watching the page to just revert it on sight. — The Hand That Feeds You:Bite 12:31, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The associated cuisine has listed Arab cuisine for quite a while now, see for example this or this this version. Also that bit is covered by ARBPIA, and @ShawarmaFan07 you may not edit material related to the Arab-Israeli conflict due to not having 500 edits. nableezy - 19:20, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Nableezy I'm not sure what you are saying about the Arab-Israel conflict. I did not edit that article and I never did. ShawarmaFan07 (talk) 19:46, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arab-Middle Eastern title

[edit]

Why do you keep reverting back to "Arab" cuisine from "Middle East"? The lead literally state that it is a Middle Eastern dish. Israel, Turkey, Georgia are mentioned and they are literally not Arabic speaking countries. We need to stop edit warring. Please. ShawarmaFan07 (talk) 19:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mellk @Nableezy @HandThatFeeds this question is to you guys. We must make a consensus before reverting back and fourth. If Israel and Turkey traditionally consume shawarma, then why should be exclusive in the Arab cuisine? ShawarmaFan07 (talk) 13:08, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arab Cuisine, Middle Eastern Cuisine

[edit]

I have asked this previously but nobody seemed to answer, so I will ask again. Why should it just be labelled as "Arab Cuisine" rather than just Middle Eastern? Again, shawarma is traditionally consumed in Israel and Turkey, both of which are clearly mentioned in this article. So why should it just be called an Arab cuisine?

[edit]

Looks nothing like a typical shawerma, will try to find an alternative picture. Makeandtoss (talk) 09:58, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
