Hello, I'm Doug Weller. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Virgin Birth of Jesus, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The source says Palestine, you can't change it because you don't like it. Doug Weller talk 13:45, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• The source does not say "Palestine" in reference to 1st century Judea. No historian refers to that territory of Jesus' time as "Palestine", since no entity existed at such a time and place. The only name for that territory in Jesus' time was Judea. That is historical fact, and how the source obviously calls the land of that time period. 65.95.158.79 (talk) 20:01, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I read the source. Also see Timeline of the name Palestine. Doug Weller talk 20:22, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The source uses Judea frequently, as any reputable historian of this time period would, because that is what all the available historical sources of this period refer to the land as (including all Roman ones). The only official name of the territory in the 1st century was Judea. Syria Palestina was never used by the Romans for this territory in any official or meaningful purpose until much later, after the Bar Kokhba revolt, as part of their collective punishments on the Jewish people. 65.95.158.79 (talk) 20:47, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Sources and parallels of the Exodus‎. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. This was simply vandalism as you deleted text saying it wasn't in the source, which shows you didn't check it as it was clearly there. Doug Weller talk 13:46, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Sources and parallels of the Exodus, you may be blocked from editing.

Stop vandalizing Virgin Birth of Jesus. Per Timeline of the name Palestine, the name has been in use since the 5th centurty BC, and it translates an even older geographic name for the region. Judea is the name of a minor sub-region. Dimadick (talk) 05:57, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not vandalizing that page. My edits do not meet the definition of vandalism. Please refer to my user account which I have created for further discussion. Furthermore, Judea is the ONLY name for the Roman province in the 1st century. There was NO official usage of "Palestine" in any sense during that time by any Roman authorities, and no place officially called "Palestine" between the Yehud Medinata, Hasmonean Dynasty and Roman Judea. Judea was the only name for the entirety of the Roman province. Fides2022 (talk) 22:05, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
