Jay Ruderman draft proposal

Hi Marokwitz, I noticed that you made significant improvements to Jay Ruderman's article a few months ago. I reworked the current page into a more encyclopedic draft, and explained my changes on Jay's Talk page. If it looks good, I'd appreciate you posting this new version. Thanks!

I'd rather not, but thanks for the offer. I think that as long as the changes are non-promotional, you can make them on your own. Marokwitz (talk) 08:29, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Marokwitz, thanks for responding so quickly. I am trying to follow the WP:COI guidelines closely, and my understanding is that a neutral editor needs to determine whether the changes are non promotional. If you have a minute to look at it, I would really appreciate it. The draft includes all the sources and code and should be simple to implement, if you agree that it improves the article. Thanks LiatDo (talk) 12:25, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

The changes are too numerous for me to review. A quick look shows you have done things such as changing "lobbying" to "advocating," which is a more flattering word. You have also removed entire sections of the original article and omitted citations of at least one times of Israel article without explanation. Overall, I must decline. This is not a good way to influence the article. Marokwitz (talk) 17:53, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Marokwitz, thank you for looking at the draft. I removed content that seemed to have been added by a non-neutral editor in my attempt to clean up the page. Thanks again for your time. LiatDo (talk) 09:01, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
