- Yes, this was a revised version of the request from 18 October 2025 that got rejected about 4 hours later. Previously I put the main messages of the article in my own words, the rejection said that was "somewhat vague" and "the portion you quoted does not support the claim", so here I used short quotes of the author's exact words. The rejection above also said "views should be attributed to its author" so I fixed that and linked the author's Wikipedia page instead of the newspaper. 2405:6E00:630:1BAB:F3F9:C96E:D7CC:BB93 (talk) 02:19, 2 November 2025 (UTC)
References
Not done: Cultural references to Samson do not seem relevant to the background of the deterrence strategy. In my view, the professor's opinion belongs in the "Authors' opinions" section rather than the "Background" section, if at all. Throast {{ping}} me! (talk | contribs) 14:36, 24 October 2025 (UTC)
Samson is a legendary figure
[edit]The article currently states that Samson (a biblical character whose actual historical existence is debated) "pushed apart the pillars of a Philistine temple". Since "pushing apart pillars" is not within the capability of a human being, I am going to modify this sentence with an appropriate qualifier, if no one objects.
