- The AIC Oasis - General discussion for all /Project Articles - works like the Village pump, specific to this topic.
- Shortcuts to this and related pages.
Consensus
The important requirements for this project are 1. NPOV 2. Organization (complete tables, headers, and links) 3. Verbose explanation of changes (edit comments, and on talk pages) 4. Deference to community consensus.
- See Wikipedia talk:Wikiproject:Arab-Israeli conflict for discussion on consensus and requirements.
Context related articles
With all fields of study, there are greater contexts above even the enormous contexts, and the Arab-Israeli conflicts cannot truly be discussed without including the greater influence of Western and U.S. power —this is often the most controversial aspect of discussing the Middle-East peace process.
- US influence/role in Middle east conflict

- User:Adam Carr (Talk) I am happy to join a discussion group, but I certainly don't agree that the "greater influence of Western and US power" has got anything to do with this topic and if that is the ideological starting point then I won't be participating. I am not willing to agree to refrain from editing any article. Adam 14:12, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Pages related to Israel or Palestine
list of articles related to the conflict - please help sorting, so we can make something like a general table of contents out of it.
Suggestions
- A proposal for guidelines for the depiction of this conflict is here.
- general remarks of Elian
- Policy for adding links
- Discussion on terminology:
- What violent attack can be referred to as terrorism.
- I suggest deprecating "terrorism" and "terrorists" in favour of "militancy" and "militants". See Definitions of terrorism (esp. Jason Burke comment) for rationale. It can then just be noted that some of these organisations are stated to be terrorist organisations by certain people, without taking a stance on their status. (Thus "Hamas is a militant organisation dedicated to XYZ. It has claimed credit for ABC and is defined as a terorist organisation by PQR". But equally, "Israeli militants bombed XYZ". We do not have to choose which if either are labelled "terrorists" in Wikipedia) FT2 09:18, Jan 26, 2005 (UTC)
- What organization can be defined as terrorist groups (reference: US State department list of terror organizations).
- West Bank\Gaza Strip or occupied territories or the disputed territories.
- In my opinion - the WB\GS is the most NPOV and the least controversial. MathKnight 12:19, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Is there a place called "Palestine"?
- What violent attack can be referred to as terrorism.
