Double Your WikiProject Judaism

Twice as Nice I hereby award you the Twice as Nice Award for your work in helping to double the number of articles in WikiProject Judaism in the space of a week!

--Eliyak T·C 01:21, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

WP

Other wikiprojects add categories to their wikiprojects for example Category:Syria_categories and Category:Category-Class_Texas_articles --Java7837 16:07, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Moshe Feinstein

I noticed you moved his importance level to "top." That level is for articles that are both very important to the topic and form a basic component of discussion within the topic. Rav Feinstein might qualify for the first, but not the second. --Eliyak T·C 01:36, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

I did the same with House of Hillel and House of Shammai. --Eliyak T·C 01:41, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Some cases are very borderline, and I find myself wishing there were more categories to choose from. --Eliyak T·C 02:57, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Shawn Green; spelling

Hi -- not sure where your shawn green changes came from. I think the RVs done on them were correct. Also, on spelling, there may be a bunch of misspellings of Israel as Isreal which you may condider fixing as well.--Epeefleche 15:11, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Spelling

Hey thanks for catching Televison for me....can't you set up a BOT to do that in big swoop? Maybe get with the BOT pro's, or the server admin's and have them help you run a script that would change those 5000 in a minute? IP4240207xx 17:40, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:B707-PAA-Porto Rico.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:B707-PAA-Porto Rico.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 06:30, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Fontainebleau hs.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Fontainebleau hs.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Zedla (talk) 04:09, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Invite

As a current or past contributor to a related article, I thought I'd let you know about WikiProject University of Florida, a collaborative effort to improve Misplaced Pages's coverage of University of Florida. If you would like to participate, you can visit the project page, where you can join the project and see a list of open tasks and related articles. Thanks!

Image source problem with Image:Pesach3.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Pesach3.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Misplaced Pages:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:42, 8 April 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr 16:42, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Judaism Newsletter

The Judaism Newsletter Issue II -- Tammuz, 5768 WikiProject Judaism (/to do) WikiProject Jewish History (/to do) WikiProject Kabbalah (/to do)

Now with 200% more Jewishness! Yes, folks, we're moving on up. This newsletter is now the newsletter for both WikiProject Judaism, WikiProject Jewish History, and WikiProject Kabbalah. In the future, I may split them, but for now I think we'll be just fine with one. As always, any questions or comments should be directed to me, L'Aquatique. A Special Dispatch Just a note, not aimed at anyone in particular. By order of the administrative cabal, it is officially not cool (and possibly dickish) to call someone an anti-semite when they aren't being anti-semitic. Anti-semitic is a very charged word, and it's important only to use it when you're absolutely sure it applies, lest it become the subject of a Godwin-esque law. Remember Hanlon's Razor: never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. In the News A new class on the importance scale has been added- C Class- which covers articles better than start but not quite to B Class yet. It is up to the WikiProjects to decide whether to adopt them or not. Currently, there has been little discussion within our Projects, so if you feel strongly either way be sure to note so at your Project. There is a proposal to reword the section on NPOV regarding religious articles. Please see Wikipedia_talk:NPOV#Religion section - Disputes between historians or scientists and religious_views to weigh in. Thanks largely to the efforts of Xyz7890, a new navbox has come into being featuring Halakha topics. See: Template talk:Halakha to join in the conversation about how it can best be improved. To Do The Simple English Misplaced Pages is beginning a project of creating and improving articles related to religion, including Judaism. At the present time, volunteers are needed to propose our most important subjects for articles to be created. The official working list is here and a more extended list is here. If you are unsure of proper topics, you might try checking our lists of top importance level articles: Judaism and Jewish History. (WikiProject Kabbalah currently doesn't have such a list) WikiProject Christianity is considering running a monthly drive wherein two or three top importance articles from English Misplaced Pages are simplified and moved over to S.E. They have extended an offer to work with us in creating a similar project for Judaism related articles. For questions or volunteer opportunities, please contact User:John Carter. WikiProject Kabbalah is in dire need of an article rating system for quality and importance. If you are familiar with that system and have some time on your hands, please create one. It could also use some infoboxes... New Members Judaism: Big maybe, Janirai, Jfdwolff, Joseph.mahal, Joshua Weiss, LisaLiel, Rcjavid, Yehudi, YY, Agent204.15, Gilad73, Joseph.mahal, Noah03 Jewish History: Noah03 Kabbalah: None.

The Judaism Newsletter

The Judaism Newsletter Issue III -- Av, 5768 WikiProject Judaism (/to do) WikiProject Jewish History (/to do) WikiProject Kabbalah (/to do)

"Censorship" of names of G-d There is an interesting discussion currently taking place regarding whether or not it is acceptable to censor (i.e. G-d, HaShem->YodHey) names of G-d in articles to protect Jews who may be reading or editing the article. You can weigh in here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Judaism#Yahweh. Article Cleanup Lists User:B. Wolterding has generously offered us use of his bot to generate lists that show which articles of ours are tagged for cleanup. You can read more about this service here: User:B._Wolterding/Cleanup_listings and if you would like to take him up on his offer, contact him on his talk page. In the News There is a collaboration drive to get Holocaust in Lithuania to good article status. For information about how you can help, see the talk page or contact User:Piotrus. WikiProject Kabbalah's only Featured and Good articles have been removed from the WikiProject, on the grounds that neither article (Diane Keaton and David Beckham, respectively) actually mention the subject's affiliation with Kabbalah. If you have sourced information linking either of these people to Kabbalah, please add it so the articles can be returned to the WikiProject. After a rather heated discussion, there are now two barnstars for use by the Jewish WikiProjects, {{The Jewish Barnstar}} and {{The New Jewish Barnstar}}, and you can choose which one you would like to use.. Remember: barnstars are for rewarding users who are doing good work on the project or on Judaism, Jewish History, or Kabbalah articles, and anyone can give anyone else a barnstar. If you see a user who you thinks deserves a thank you, give them a barnstar! To Do/Help Requests If you have some spare time on your hands, we could use an article about a Kabbalah scholar named Moshe Idel. According to HG there are quite a few sources easily available, you can contact him if you have questions. Be sure to nominate it for DYK if the finished article is eligible. The folks at Shimon Peres need some assistance from someone familiar with both the Hebrew calendar and language to help them figure out the subject's birthday. If you can help, please see Talk:Shimon_Peres#Birthday. New Members Judaism: Arigont, Avi, CheskiChips, Pini00001, Shirulashem, TaliaNadel, Tyciol, yehoshuafriedla Jewish History: 5768altalena, AniMate, User:Yosef.garibaldi.gmail, Pinnecco, Shirulashem, Tyciol Kabbalah: Shuliavrumi New Articles Bezalel Rudinsky (thanks Shirulashem!}, Jewish tartan (thanks Briangotts!), Hebrew spelling (thanks Epson291) We get a lot of articles that are being created and not announced! By announcing new articles, you attract attention to them, and the more people looking and editing the better they will get.

Coordinates

Hi Bachrach44! It appears that you had some trouble finding the coordinates for Ganim. Do you need help finding other coordinates? I never really got into adding them for Israeli localities, but would gladly assist you if you run into trouble. Cheers, Ynhockey 17:46, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

I'll do the Jewish localities in the WB now. On a side note, take a look at . Cheers, Ynhockey 18:47, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Kosher Tax

O.K. Clearly, Misplaced Pages does not want to be honest on this subject, or at least, the writer of the "Kosher Tax" article. But the insinuation that one CANNOT EVEN QUESTION the kosher tax is very disturbing. Even to broach the subject means that one is a racist, extremist, etc. Free speech, as long as you express the proper opinion. This is mindless, pavlovian conditioning.

By the way, imagine Misplaced Pages asking for donations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.17.173.84 (talk) 16:42, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

I am pretty new to Misplaced Pages.

I do not understand why you deleted the references in the Yerushalmi entry to "A Guide to the Jerusalem Talmud" and the book review on the commentaries. These are both important sources for information on the Jerusalem Talmud. Also the section on the commentators is very inadequate. I would be glad to add to it but I don't understand the policy on arbitrary deletions. Please explain. Thank you.Mgmidget (talk) 03:04, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

If you would deleted only the links leading to advertisements or not-important pictures I wouldn't undo you. The first link that you deleted was leading to the Web-page of the Purdue University which includes very important information about citron varieties, and a good understanding about them. Again! you may delete, but please check if you are not withholding crusial information which are in interest of the Misplaced Pages readers and participants. shoteh (talk) 02:12, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Peter Kessler

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Peter Kessler requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. --IShadowed 10:37, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

I tagged the article if additional sources were available, but primarly because the birth date was unsourced. It seems the links never confirmed the birth date as December 29, 1951. SwisterTwister talk 19:41, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Judaism

If you need any help with Jewish-related articles, let me know. Not as a collaboration, but for example if you want to expand the article I can help add info and references etc... I consider myself quite knowledgable and interested in the subject, so it shouldn't be an issue.

Hope it helps.

External Links - Morim Madrichim

Hi Bachrach44, I’m the director of Morim-madrichim.org, and let me give you a little bit of background information about the project. Our web site , Morim-madrichim.org is part of the JDC educational programs. As a member of the WikiProject Judaism you my know JDC and his work worldwide. The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) is the world’s leading Jewish humanitarian assistance organization. Since 1914, JDC has exemplified that all Jews are responsible for one another and for improving the well-being of vulnerable people around the world. Today, JDC works in more than 70 countries and in Israel to alleviate hunger and hardship, rescue Jews in danger, create lasting connections to Jewish life, and provide immediate relief and long-term development support for victims of natural and man-made disasters. Morim-mdrichim.org were launched in 2000 as a part of the www.JewishPrograms.org family of web-based educational resource centers. The www.Morim-Madrichim.org site is tailor-made for educators in formal and informal educational environments while www.JCCenters.org’s focus is on non-formal education for adults, families and youth in communities with and without walls. In additional to the linguistic diversity the diversity of the materials offered on the sites is one of the strengths of the project. The materials are developed by experienced Jewish Educators and Professionals from academia and the field from many different countries. They draw on the diverse influences of their writers who have singular communal, educational and cultural backgrounds. What’s more the very same pedagogical materials are then used in disparate locations around the globe from Costa Rica to Morocco even passing through Zimbabwe, educators from around the world have shared how the resources have assisted them in their work in varying educational, social, economic and religious contexts.

Said that, it is extremely curious how you don’t find pertinent to link our articles and programs to the main Jewish Holydays, that are the pillars of our daily work. We sincerely wait for your apologies in this systematic harassment against our links in Misplaced Pages. If we find that you continue with your incongruent attitude vis-à-vis our external links , our lawyers will take the necessary actions against your unexplained attitude. You will need a more professional statement than “I removed an external link you added to the page Yom Kippur, because to me it seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia” to judge the pertinence of our materials. Best,

Morim-madrichim.org
