Hello, for various professional reasons I'm using a pseudonym. My relevant interests are history (especially 20th century Middle-Eastern and European including Holocaust), and to a lesser extent political, religious and cultural issues. I do not have a personal connection, either by family, descent, or religion, with the people and places I write about in Wikipedia.

Some links for my own convenience
A test account I have
Zero0001 (talk · contribs) is used by me to test aspects of Wikipedia's protection/authorization system that I cannot test from an administrator's account.
Some tasks that need doing
- Jenin — the historical background, especially ancient identifications, is very poor. TellJenin03.pdf is a good guide.
- Jewish_views_on_marriage#Ages_of_marriage — this does not very well correspond to the historical facts, especially for the Middle East and North Africa.
- Abdullah_I_of_Jordan#Assassination — details are confused and sources are poor. Wilson and Anu Nowar are better sources. Adam Matthew has UK report.
- 1099 Jerusalem massacre in several articles misquotes sources
- Missing history in Jewish National Fund, incl influence of Prussian Settlement Commission
- The story of Shatta
- Haavara Agreement elides the boycott movement even though it features prominently in all the sources.
Check if the doctored quotation from the Village Statistics in Walid Khalidi appears in Brawer's review.
- The origin story at The Protocols of the Elders of Zion no longer has the discredited version from the Berne trial, but that version has now disappeared entirely. Write a section explaining the history of the origin story. Levy has a good summary.
- Berne Trial needs more from Hagemeister.
- Levy's assessment of the actual significance of the Protocols is worthy of reporting.
Fix Sami al-Jundi "quotation" from proper source, such as Kedourie, Arabic Political Memoirs and Other Studies, p200.
- Finish the Buraq Mosque article already.
- Rewrite Tel Aviv and Jaffa deportation, renamed something like 1917 evacuation of Gaza and Jaffa primarily using Mazza, Ben-Bassat and Friedman.
- Add better description to Tegart's Wall based on the sources mentioned on the talk page. Especially fix the false claim that the fence was on the border.
- Harris on Ziklag.
- Moshe Pearlman needs fleshing out.
- More on how Israel presented the Eichmann operation to the world.
- Joseph Schechtman needs more on his refugee writing.
- Shadmi's interview on the Kfar Qassem massacre.
- Role of Nation Associates in the creation of Israel.
- Shneur Zalman of Liadi's views on gentiles.
- Material from Levine about the Tel Aviv sand-dunes myth.
Azmi Bishara is a mess.
- Constitution of Mandatory Palestine, see talk page.
- Ben Barka summary is bad.
- Petah Tikva history from Marom
More on Michael Dov Weissmandl from Paldiel
- Moshava translation
- 13th Waffen Mountain Division of the SS Handschar (1st Croatian) multiple problems noted on the talk pages
- Flag of Mandatory Palestine the rules about the ensign, more from Sorek
- Wilson's Arch (Jerusalem) is a mess
- American Palestine Committee - the history is terrible, see talk page
- Palestinian Citizenship Order, 1925 — add more details and a link to the full text
- Avraham Stern — add material from Bishop
- Jewish revolt against Heraclius follows many sources by hiding what the ancient sources actually say
- Kerem Avraham expand from Finn and Polley
- Clean up Tiberias. Avni is a good start
- Expand Ezuz. Map ElKossaima-Sinai-1914.jpg would be good.
Palestine/Israel summer time started in 1940. Gazette 1010 suppl 1, "Time Determination Ordinance".
Druze in Mandatory Palestine needs statistics
- Make a map for Wadi Qana
- Yehudai's book has a large amount of material suitable for Yerida
- The conversion of Moshe Schneersohn, from Assaf's book
- The poor state of Malaria in Mandatory Palestine
