== Help! ==

Some of the people who reverted my edits are spamming my talk section including divulging personal information and insults. Please advise on how to keep this from continually reoccurring. Gmail and name are repeatedly inserted to my talk page. Sorry to bother you with this, I have no idea how to address this problem.

What exactly needs editting? In what places are Conservative views not getting fair airtime? ] (] | ]) 21:27, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

== Camp Ramah in the Poconos article ==

Hey dude, check out the article ] and notice that the only overnight camp that doesn't have an article is ]. I think this article, or at least starting it would be right up your alley. --Matt (] 02:09, 1 November 2006 (UTC))

== Problem in setting up merge templates in your proposed Conservative-Judaism related mergers ==

Hello, it looks like when you set up the merge templates for these mergers, you inadvertently sent the discussion to a page called ]. Unfortunately, ] is the general help article on a generic talk page, not a good place to hold an actual discussion. Perhaps you wanted the discussion to take place on e.g. ] or some other actual talk page? Best, --] 03:01, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Just one more technical issue. I noticed that in the ] article, the merger template "Discuss" link points to ], but on the ] article the "Discuss" link points to ]. Policy is that there should be one and only one discussion page that all the links for all articles involved in a single merger proposal should point to. Having everything on one page prevents the discussion from being fractured. Normally this would be the proposed destination talk page (since this is the page which will survive if the merger succeeds). Best, --] 01:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Also, the merge template for ] points to ] which is actually a different page from ] for the ] article -- capitalization (the "R" in "respona") matters in article titles, and Misplaced Pages treats them as two different pages. In general having two pages with the same title except for capitalization is a bad idea because many Misplaced Pages features ignore capitalization and there is great risk of confusion and all sorts of problems. If you make all the "Discuss" links point to ], this problem will go away. Best --] 01:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

==Curse of Ham==

You have removed the Talmudic reference, are you saying that no where in the Jewish tradition has this myth influenced perception of "black people" ? I have just seen a rather interesting debate by ] i would like your sincere opinion on it. and please don’t dismiss the entire content anti-Semitic because it would be hard to believe everything he said was a lie, and he doesn’t seem to harbor any evil against Jewish people. It is better to hear your contribution on this matter so that there is balance. Thank you for your time.--] 10:53, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments, I will ask others to research the topic so a balance view is provided. And you are correct hate breeds more hate. And i have found when you oppress people it diminishes their humanity to a point where they become like the people they see as their oppressors and the cycle goes around until no one can listen anymore.--] 22:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

== G-d was not misspelled ==

Why did you rv my edit? ] 07:01, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

G-d is spelled G-d in places such as this. ] 08:41, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

<big>'''Now with 200% ''more'' Jewishness!'''</big><br>
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, ].

<big>'''A Special Dispatch'''</big><br>
Just a note, not aimed at anyone in particular. By order of the administrative cabal, it is officially not cool (and possibly ]) 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 ]. Remember Hanlon's Razor: never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.<br>
<big>'''In the News'''</big>
*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 ] to weigh in.
*Thanks largely to the efforts of ], a new navbox has come into being featuring Halakha topics. See: ] to join in the conversation about how it can best be improved.
<big>'''To Do'''</big>
* The ] 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 ] and a more extended list is ]. If you are unsure of proper topics, you might try checking our lists of top importance level articles: ] and ]. (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 ].
*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...

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, {{tl|The Jewish Barnstar}} and {{tl|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.

Hi.

Bad faith deletion of new article on Shefa'

Eliezer (under a new name) is trying to delete articles on real organizations. The claim he made on the Shefa Network page is false and disingenuous. The Shefa Network is a real group within Conservative Judaism, and in fact is already larger than many organizations that Misplaced Pages already has many articles on.

The Shefa Network already has several hundred members, they have their own journal, their own website, they have already had two major conferences, and two more conferences are planned soon. Yet Eliezer and a friend of his are trying to delete its article? Eliezer has refused to even discuss the issue on the article's discussion page, despite the fact that I am trying to engage in civil discourse. Eliezer and his friend haven't even tried to see if the group exists.

Note the timestamps; they tried to delete the article within minutes of its creation. They obviously didn't even try to read the group's official website, or read its academic journal. They certainly never went to any of Shefa's conferences! They also never joined Shefa's e-mail list and asked anyone about the group. Look, attempting to delete a page without even trying to ascertain the facts is clearly against Misplaced Pages policy. And doing so while refusing to engage in dialogue is editing in bad faith, by definition.

If someone somehow still doubts that this organization exists, I can arrange for an interview with its founder, or its journal editor, webmaster, and members of this organization who have been to Shefa's academic conferences. RK 14:04, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Problem in setting up merge templates in your proposed Conservative-Judaism related mergers

Hello, it looks like when you set up the merge templates for these mergers, you inadvertently sent the discussion to a page called Talk Page. Unfortunately, Talk Page is the general help article on a generic talk page, not a good place to hold an actual discussion. Perhaps you wanted the discussion to take place on e.g. Talk:Conservative Halakha or some other actual talk page? Best, --Shirahadasha 03:01, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi! Just one more technical issue. I noticed that in the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards article, the merger template "Discuss" link points to Talk:Committee on Jewish Law and Standards, but on the Conservative Halakha article the "Discuss" link points to Talk:Conservative Halakha. Policy is that there should be one and only one discussion page that all the links for all articles involved in a single merger proposal should point to. Having everything on one page prevents the discussion from being fractured. Normally this would be the proposed destination talk page (since this is the page which will survive if the merger succeeds). Best, --Shirahadasha 01:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Also, the merge template for Conservative responsa points to Talk:Conservative Responsa which is actually a different page from Talk:Conservative responsa for the Conservative responsa article -- capitalization (the "R" in "respona") matters in article titles, and Misplaced Pages treats them as two different pages. In general having two pages with the same title except for capitalization is a bad idea because many Misplaced Pages features ignore capitalization and there is great risk of confusion and all sorts of problems. If you make all the "Discuss" links point to Talk:Conservative Halakha, this problem will go away. Best --Shirahadasha 01:12, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Curse of Ham

You have removed the Talmudic reference, are you saying that no where in the Jewish tradition has this myth influenced perception of "black people" ? I have just seen a rather interesting debate by Tony Martin i would like your sincere opinion on it.Tony Martin on Judaic role in enslavement and please don’t dismiss the entire content anti-Semitic because it would be hard to believe everything he said was a lie, and he doesn’t seem to harbor any evil against Jewish people. It is better to hear your contribution on this matter so that there is balance. Thank you for your time.--Halaqah 10:53, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments, I will ask others to research the topic so a balance view is provided. And you are correct hate breeds more hate. And i have found when you oppress people it diminishes their humanity to a point where they become like the people they see as their oppressors and the cycle goes around until no one can listen anymore.--Halaqah 22:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

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.

  • 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...

"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.

  • 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 Articles

  • 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. If you would like your new article to appear in the newsletter, add it here for Judaism and Kabbalah and here for Jewish History.

Orphaned non-free image File:Usylogo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Usylogo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 22:24, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Absolutely, good callout. I believe the rest of the edit is fair and valuable. The claim is not without evidence, and the Snopes article does not "debunk" the symbolism. yonkeltron (talk) 02:56, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
