Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 18:46, 11 January 2007

Welcome to my talk page. Here you can leave any messages you want for me. I don't reply on this page however, and will post a reply on your own talk page (unless you don't have one). To make it easier for me, please have a talk link in your signature.

Also now I'm in regular service with the Israel Defense Forces, which means I may not be able to reply quickly.

Also, while I accept or even welcome criticism (as you can see, there's some on the page), I will delete any personal attacks. Please don't bother.

Just out of curiousity

Why did you edit out the part out the end of the Bount article on the Bleach page? I felt there was no reason, if you'd be so kind as to explain, i'd appreciate it.

Novite

please revert everything related to roads in Israel

Can you explain why you wasted time on this pervasive and misleading change? There is a master category called Category:Roads by country where dozens of other countries in the world are represented by 'roads of ...' except Israel thanks to you. Only Israel has a 'highways of Israel' subcat represented there, and in this sub cat are roads that are not even highways. If you are not sure about geographical cats, I suggest you go to the main cats of English-language countries and see how it's done there. I usually use the US or Canada. Roads of Canada is the super-cat, underneath that are roads by provinces or national highways, and under the roads by province cats you'll find subcats for highways, roads, and streets.

Please revert ASAP. --Shuki 20:19, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

The issue is not whether it should be named Highways in Israel or Roads in Israel, it's whether we need 2 separate categories. Clearly we do not, there aren't even that many notable roads in Israel, and there is no precedent for 2 separate categories. That is why I merged the categories into one. If you feel Roads in Israel is a more appropriate name for the new (merged) category, propose it on CfD (a move proposal). It will certainly be approved. -- Ynhockey 11:21, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

It's really nice in retrospect to explain actions and then tell me to correct them. FWIW, someone else already suggested a cfd. I assume that you're expected him to go into each article and change the cats as well. --Shuki 20:09, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Ajukasu & Vastorode

So long as you're OK with the new spellings, I'll tolerate them as well. (The new spellings are so ugly though...) Perhaps more importantly, are the spellings consistent throughout the articles at this point?

And I'm glad you noticed the respect thingie, you ARE that awesome. ;) --tjstrf 14:53, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

(Bleach) Soi Fong -> Soifon_Soifon-2006-07-16T05:28:00.000Z">

Hey! I was thinking about moving Soi Fong's article to Soifon. The reasons are the same I pointed on the discussion page: "As far as I know, the only reason for people be using Soi Fong is because they take her real lastname (Fong, in Fong Shaolin) and apply to the codename. But we know that's not the case, if the codename had a family name on it, Yoruichi would just call her "Soi", not "Soi Fong"... and, well, every official source that shows the romanization of the name (the games and S.O.U.L.s, the character book) use "Soifon", never Soi Fong. I really think the wrong romanization, even being popular, should not be used in Misplaced Pages."

Most important, the information in S.O.U.L.s book. The name is romanized in big letters. But, before doing this, I thought about coming here and ask your opinion considering you are very influent among wikipedian bleachers and much of the cotributions on these articles are yours.

So... - Access Timeco 05:28, 16 July 2006 (UTC)_Soifon"> _Soifon">

...I can't believe I've never noticed that. He's right, the Databook has every character's name in the background of their page. Interestingly, it says Menos-Grande is hyphenated, and also the name of that hollow Orihime fought early on, Numb Chandelier. --tjstrf 05:48, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Contact info

I do have IM, and have no trouble with giving it out, ("Erachima" on both msn and AIM) but I am not on an IM equipped computer at this moment. You could contact me either by e-mail, or by waiting until I get back to my house in ~2-3 hours. --tjstrf 20:35, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Katyusha Map

When you get a chance, could you update the map you made of missle strikes in northern Israel to reflect Nazareth, Afula, and Atlit? Thanks Tewfik 05:16, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, and good job. I tried פיקוד העורף and דובר צה"ל, but neither had a list readily accessible. כבוד, Tewfik 18:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Do Beit Shean and Jenin now qualify for this? Tewfik 06:50, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

I guess when you get a chance, Hadera, Beit Shean, and whatever was hit in the Jenin area. Thanks for your help. Tewfik 06:37, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your excellent work on the map. And... sorry to keep bothering you, but could you add Beit Shean and the Jenin area village? Maybe also Mrar and Kfar Gil'adi if you feel they are appropriate. Or if it is too burdensome, I wouldn't mind doing it myself if you could explain how. Thanks again, Tewfik 04:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

This may be helpful. Tewfik 04:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

This may also be helpful. Thanks for your efforts, Tewfik 05:45, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Zanpakutō

In the manga, they use the words initial and final release, however, when reaching bankai they still say bankai, and also mention shikai. Initial and Final release are used as descriptions in both japanese and american manga, however, bankai and shikai are used as the proper terms. They do not say "final release" to enter bankai, they use the word Bankai. It is the proper terminology in this case. The english is used in paranthesis. However since the words are used in the English manga, they are the terms used when discussing the English version of Bleach, and not "initial and final release" As it may be nice to use the english description words, it is still the terminology used in the english manga. Similar in Naruto where they say in the english manga "ninja technique" to describe ninjutsu, they still use Ninjutsu throughout the rest of the manga. Look at the Naruto page for reference --Shrek05 21:19, 27 July 2006 (UTC) edited:--Shrek05 21:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I believe the confusion here is arising from the usage of command phrases for release. Renji probably has the archetypical initial release. When he releases it, he says "Howl, Zabimaru!". Not "Initial release: Howl, Zabimaru!" or "Initial release: Zabimaru!", both of which would work just as well. The same pattern is followed for every other initial release. The command phrase, followed by the sword name.

But then, for some reason known only to the author, for the final release, the format changes. Bankai takes the place of the command phrase, and is followed by the extended sword name. So, where before we had "Howl, Zabimaru!" we now have "Final release: Baboon King Zabimaru". No command phrase. Also, since we translate the command phrases anyway (look at Gin Ichimaru's article), even if Bankai were the command phrase we would still have it phrased as final release.

This does raise the valid point of why we use shinigami rather than a translated form. We do so for consistency, and because it stops arguments over whose translation is "correct". Different groups and fans prefer different translations of the term, God of death, Death god, Reaper, Angel of Death, etc. It was easier to leave it untranslated. The same thing with zanpakutō: Soul slayer, Soul cutter, Soul cutting sword, Soul blade... Since there is no major dispute over the translation of shikai and bankai, we can safely translate them. --tjstrf 21:49, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Здравствуйте, Спасибо за внесенные изменения в статью Pole Chudes. Однако вы точно знаете, что сектор Х4 существует в нынешней версии программы?

Специально для этого я просмотрел сегодняшнюю передачу, однако найти этот сектор на барабане не сумел.

Bount spelling

Congratulations, you got it right. Bleach Original Sound Track 2, CD Jacket, page 6, spells the name "Bount". (Bounts actually, it's plural when they use it) Very indirect source, but it is in english, and written down. Cheers. --tjstrf 03:55, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Maps

The Barnstar of Diligence For excellent job on the maps and more. Thank you for making WP beautiful. ←Humus sapiens 22:11, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Ynhockey. Here's to your collection of silly trinkets. If it's not a secret, could you let me know what tools do you use for the maps? I'd like to replace Image:Peelmap-a.png (source: ) which may (or may not) have copyright problems. Cheers. ←Humus sapiens 22:14, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Great! But I am pretty sure Tel Aviv supposed to belong to the Jewish state. Thanks. ←Humus sapiens 04:40, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

OK, I'm not so sure anymore. Let's check some reliable sources. AFAIK, there were 3 plans: A, B & C. B&C were discarded early. ←Humus sapiens 09:39, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

BTW, I claimed Image:Peelmap-a.png a PD because it was included in the League of Nations doc. ←Humus sapiens 09:56, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Greetings

Just wanted to drop a note to say that I hope you are well and hopefully not in the war zone, but either way stay safe. Ramallite 03:25, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Pretty good, I was just telling Zeq the other day that I feel we were in the safest place in the middle east in Ramallah (ironically). But now I'm traveling again, and I don't have to tell you how nervous planes make me these days. Take care of yourself... assuming you are a guard over Palestinians, you must have heard many good jokes to tell. Ramallite 17:45, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Just a request

Hi, I just wanted to clear a few things up with you, I have recently started to get into Bleach and I can see you have been working on the Bleach Misplaced Pages article for a long time and I accept that you probably get tired of new fans like me making edits which you think are too long, too rambling, poorly written and so it goes on.

I just wondered if you could help me out and give me a couple of pointers on how to edit articles better as I always feel a bit shamed when you critically edit or completely delete my updates which I only make because I think they make the article better or a certain section is lacking some relevant material and I just wanted to get your opinion on how I could improve? Thanks.

Urrgh5591, 19:59,18th August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your response I appreciate it. Urrgh5591, 18:21,22nd August 2006 (UTC)

Question

Hi there! I loved your suggestions to try and merge all the random minor bleach character articles, and I just have a quick question for you. I'm trying to do the same thing to the Kushiel's Legacy articles as you are doing to the Bleach (manga) articles, but how do I delete the random extra articles after I've merged their information into the main article? Bleach Babe 22:43, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

the 35

Can you please help Amoruso to provide correct report and sources for the 35 issue (or do it yourself)? He doesn't seem to understand what is needed. Perhaps there is enough in this article (half way down) and this interview. We need precise coordinates of the newspaper articles and theses, and some direct translations of important sentences. Thanks. --Zero 07:10, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Atlit

Sorry, I didn't read it. I was just moving the categorisation from the Atlit Category directly to the article. Cheers, Tewfik 00:00, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

RfA?

I am thinking of renewing the Request for Adminship on your account, and wish to know if there is anything that might make this a bad time to do so. For instance, if you were involved in any sort of content dispute, whether you were in the right or not it could result in a lot of bandwagonning "no" votes. Also, do you feel you've rectified your position on copyright to "pass" wikilaw quizzes on the subject? --tjstrf 04:48, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

1929 Palestine riots

Please check what happened here. Some guy named Ed came in and turned it into an 'incident' (while of course, in Deir Yassin there was not an 'incident' but a 'massacre'). Help needed there. --Daniel575 | (talk) 17:49, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

What's wrong with the bus 332??

Hi, you deleted my contribution to the article List_of_Egged_bus_lines about the bus 332 from Haifa to Nazareth, why? I've never been to Haifa, but i've been to Nazareth and was contributing also to a Wikitravel article about Nazareth, so i had gone to the Egged site and looked it up. The Egged website lists bus 332 as a bus between Haifa and Nazareth. Is there anything wrong with it? Please answer. Jancikotuc 18:46, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Ok, one more question: you changed the spelling of Fureidis to Puryadis. I speak neither Hebrew nor Arabic, but on my map of Israel (purchased in Israel) is Fureidis, and when i actually got there, the people (Jews and Arabs alike) referred to it as Faradis, which slightly surprised me. The first time i saw it rendered as Puryadis was in your correction of the article in question. But you're an Israeli so you should know better, shouldn't you? Thus, please tell me where this rendition comes from. TIA. Jancikotuc 20:45, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Movie plot translation

If you have time, could you head over to http://www.bleach-movie.com/, click on "Story" and enter the new plot details into the Bleach: Memories of Nobody page? They just posted this information, but I can't read Japanese. :( There are four pages of plot there, supposedly, and it'd be nice to have it on the wiki. –Gunslinger47 04:00, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Concise refs

To clear up what I meant by concise when speaking of refs, refs only need a "name=" field if they are used more than once. So you can do this:

1. <ref>The 1st reference.</ref>

And if they are used more than once, the second ref doesn't need the internal info, but can instead just be used in combination like this:

1. <ref name="example">The 2nd reference</ref>
2. <ref name="example" />

And then, of course:

<references />

1. The 1st reference.
2. ^ The 2nd reference.

It doesn't make a difference in IE or (most) Firefox, but Opera throws fits over named refs that appear only once. --tjstrf 08:10, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm... popups gives me these rather difficult to read strings that link to the reference's anchor, by number. It's easier to just click on the thing. I don't know if anything's changed code-wise, I just know that it was given as a way to avoid duplicate ref errors on the Administrator's Notice Board a few days ago. (Yet another page I have watchlisted.)

As for mistranslations, none are coming to mind that you didn't mention. At least, none from the manga, the anime's had all sorts of weird translations. --tjstrf 08:30, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Bleach Episode list

I am taking and editing the Arc list the way Kubo Tite considers the arcs, and aldo the Bount arc is and is not manga material, why cant I educate people on this information? I would provide source, but as both being a fansub site , I refuse to link through Misplaced Pages.

Railway Station Photos

I just wanted to thank you for the great additions to the Lev HaMifratz and Haifa Bat Galim articles – the photos add a lot. Thanks again!

Bleach's Official Book(s):

Yn, here's the info from Shueisha's online bookstore, which should be even better than a scan from me (since picture hosting isn't permanent while these should be:

BLEACH―ブリーチ―　OFFICIAL　CHARACTER　BOOK　SOULs．

BLEACH―ブリーチ―　OFFICIAL　ANIMATION　BOOK　VIBEs．

The reason it's called "databook" on english wiki is because the forums call them that. I refer to them on Japanese and/or Chinese forums by Souls or Vibes mostly.

License tagging for Image:Mpflag.svg

Thanks for uploading Image:Mpflag.svg. Misplaced Pages gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Misplaced Pages, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Misplaced Pages:Image use policy
• Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions. 19:08, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Note: Since OrphanBot is a bot, I won't reply on his talk page. This 'reply' is mainly for other editors who may be interested in the discussion: The image is already tagged, with {{Insignia}}. This is the tag used by all other flags. I'm quite puzzled as to why OrphanBot messaged me on this issue, but this is probably because it's a Commons tag not recognized by the bot. -- Ynhockey 19:19, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Reverted your "Safari (disambiguation)" edit

I reverted your recent edit to Safari (disambiguation). We should not list individual safari parks on the Safari (disambiguation) page. I'd like to link to "List of safari parks" but there isn't a list (I think?) --Charles Gaudette 00:17, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: Removal of relevant category

Please don't, actually. The filtering of articles to more specific categories is made in line with the overall structure here. In particular, Category:Battles and operations of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War is a sub-category of Category:Battles of Israel, which is a sub-category of Category:Wars of Israel, which is a sub-category of Category:Military operations of Israel (which will be the new form of the strangely named Category:Israel Defense Forces Operations). Per Misplaced Pages's categorization guidelines, articles should not, in general, be placed in a parent category if they are already in a child category. Kirill Lokshin 18:32, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

All of those should be on the individual articles rather than on the category itself. In other words, for any operation during that war:

• It is always a battle of Israel.
• It is either a battle of Syria, or a battle of Egypt, or so forth, but not a battle of all of those.

Hence, the only one for which the entire category—rather than individual battles—is guaranteed to be correct is Israel.

(This comes up quite often, actually. For example, Category:Battles of the French Revolutionary Wars is in Category:Battles of France; but, because the battles were fought against different opponents, categories like Category:Battles of Austria and Category:Battles of Russia are placed on the individual articles rather than the category as a whole.) Kirill Lokshin 19:01, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Redirecting Issues

Hello Ynhockey. I have noticed that you have submitted a few redirect linking pages within the category of Bleach, a japanese anime. More specifically I have noticed you redirecting many Bounto within this anime. However, many of these redirects were redirected in the entirely wrong area, such as in Bleach characters instead of Bounts in Bleach series. Please be sure to check things such as this before creating more redirect articles.

--Darin Fidika--

Re: Pallywood

Ynhockey, you are saying yourself that Dr. Landes refers specifically to Palestinians. End of story! A "simple Google search reveals" nothing, only that there are people like you who have the same ill-founded understanding of "Pallywood". Pallywood is a well-defined term and has always been. You are free to start a new topic "Hezbollywood" for that particular neologism, but please don't mix up well-defined terms and bend their definitions to what you perceive them to be. Thanks. Kosmopolis 19:10, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Blond/e

I see. I've always seen, read, and used blonde, so I was unaware of that. I'll add it to the mental list of spelling "errors" not to correct then.

Of course, whether we perceive Wonderwice as masculine is an entire different issue... --tjstrf 20:53, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

See development, might interest you Amoruso 02:17, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Questions for you ... =

Why would you assume that I could only make contributions to the "Arab-Israeli" articles related to Israel? Don't you know that some of your fellow citizens (and non-citizens under occupation) are not Jewish but know quite a lot about Israel? Are non-Jewish Arabs or Palestinians disqualified from commenting on all things Israeli? Is this why you support Yisrael Beiteinu? Do you support his transfer program to push Arabs out of Israel or do you like the party for other reasons? I ask these questions because there are comments on your board indicating that you might be or have been nominated for adminship and I would like to know your stance on these issues, particularly after you and others tried to block me from joining Wikiproject:Israel. Thanks. Tiamut 18:57, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate your time in answering my questions one by one, though I respectfully yet fully disagree with a lot of your conclusions. What I would like you to do though before assuming that my edits would be anti-Israel is to actually check out my user contributions. I feel that my work in editing is, just like you described Ramallite's, quite fair, though I share his/her quite low opinion of Israel based on my experience of its treatment of me, and I allow this to show in my commentary on talk pages. I can make the distinction between editing and what I think, and do have a very strong record in editing articles related to Israel and Palestine that others are not generally interested in touching. Finally, I just wanted to let you know I'm female, not male. People tend to use "he" and I have not corrected them in the past, since I've been kind of enjoying the gender anonymity I guess. My user name is supposed to be a hint: Tiamut was the Babylonian goddess of the void that birthed the world. Thanks again for taking the time to respond Ynhockey. See you around.

RE: WikiProject Israel userbox colors

Hey, Ynhockey. The reason there is a gold boarder is twofold. First of all, I wanted to create uniformity among all the WikiProject:Judaism sister projects. As a member of most of them, it is important to see some sort of commonality among the userboxes. For perspective check out my userpage on which I have a lot of the sister project userboxes. They all look basically the same, except for the blue background that is unique to the Israel project (that was done by a small vote on the box's discussion page) and so I think these should be fairly identifiable colors.

Another reason for a gold border, particularly around one regarding a country is that when flags are displayed from poles on formal occasions, they generally have a gold border.

One of the reasons, I feel, that Israel has its own userbox and wikiproject is that it is necessary. Israel as you well know from your activities in Tzahal (God Bless you for that, by the way) it is vital to defend ourselves against those who seek to destroy us. One of the things that memmbers of WP:Israel do is defend the land of Israel from libel and slander and hate.

If you still feel strongly about this, I invite you to begin a discussion on the border on Template talk:User WP Israel. Once again, thank you for serving Israel and Jewish people worldwide. Behatzlacha! --Valley2city 23:22, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

First Aliyah

You removed this:

The First Aliyah (1882 - 1884 and 1890 - 91) was 25,000 Zionists according to the Jewish Agency for Israel: .

... because it was a repeat of something that was already in the article. However, what I'd added is referenced, whereas the original information is not. How about putting my paragraph back, and taking out the unsourced one? (Someone took out the comparable information for the 2nd Aliyah, don't understand that either).

Thankyou for putting back my edit (and referencing the other information). A couple of times I've made changes I believed to be good and well-referenced, but they've been reverted, I don't want to edit-war with anyone. PalestineRemembered 08:08, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

First Aliyah again

You removed this:

Israeli historian Benny Morris writes that "...... For decades the Zionists tried to camouflage their real aspirations, for fear of angering the authorities and the Arabs. They were, however, certain of their aims and of the means needed to achieve them. Internal correspondence amongst the olim from the very beginning of the Zionist enterprise leaves little room for doubt".

He excerpts three letters written from these first arrivals, one of which speaks of "conquer the land .... buy, buy, buy", the other two of taking it by force.

Do you think this would be preferable:

The immigrants attempted to conceal their aims and the means needed to achieve them for decades, but there can be little room for doubt of their real aspirations. Morris provides excerpts from three letters written by these pre-Zionist arrivals, one of which speaks of "conquer the land .... buy, buy, buy", the other two of taking it by force.

I'm going beyond the WP:RS only where I use the phrase "pre-Zionist", which I'm doing because Zionism hadn't really been "invented" until 13 years later - do you think that is reasonable of me?

PalestineRemembered 11:31, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't know if you could legitimately say that Zionism as a theory started with Herzl. The aspirations for an independent Jewish state in the Land of Israel have continued strong since the end of the time of the Hasmonean Dynasty over 2,000 years ago. Valley2city 15:25, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Arancars

I posted this in the hollow section as well, but i'll post it here too: I really think there should be character pages for the arancar that went with Grimmjow to the living world. We were pretty much introduced to the arancar during those chapters, even though we had heard about them from kisuke and isshin, and the grand fisher had a rather brief appeareance in which we learned about the arancar zanpaktou release. Still, both Eduardo and Shawlong provided the main details on how the numeros system works as well as demonstrated the actual zanpaktou release. Eduardo was involved in 5 or 6 straight chapters, with hardly anyone else being seen, thats more airtime than any other arancar besides Ulquiorra and Grimmjow. His Volcanica was the first release we saw, and he furthered the character development of Ikkaku, forcing him to release his bankai, which I regard as one of the top moments in the manga thus far. My friend wrote a great article about Eduardo, just to have you guys delete it, causing him to be done with this site. I have been working on one, but I want to make sure this one won't be deleted. If your argument for deleting it were to be "he is dead," well so is luppi, and he has a character page, even though he didnt last as long as Eduardo. Kaien is also dead, and he also had less time than Eduardo. I honestly don't know why any accurate information is deleted, considering you urge people to contribute.

Alright then, fine with me. Kaein is important only for having died and made someone feel guilty, I've thought he didn't need an article for quite a while now. Shall we get rid of Nell Tu's page as an immensely premature article creation as well? --tjstrf talk 18:38, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Regarding Luppi's text, you didn't write the summary in present tense. Mine has some rather odd phrasing as well, but I tried to keep it in the proper voice. On a side note, I think the Zanpakuto can be better dealt with on the list of Zanpakuto page for individual characters. When you have a complete article to fill, including all the information about the zanpakuto you can is great. But when it's just two paragraphs I'd prefer not to use half of it just giving a duplicate description of their weapon. --tjstrf talk 03:02, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Modei'in Illit

I heard that the Israli b of statistics said Modei'in illit is the fastest growing town in Israel. True or false? Chavatshimshon 23:31, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Modi'in Illit is listed as the largest population area in the Judea and Samaria area, but as it is a Local council and not a City, I think Ma'ale Adummim might still be the "largest city." What do you think? Tewfik 17:13, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

about my photos -- ..."all of them have a 'bievushtang' signature at the bottom-right."... First, you mispelled 'beivushtang' (and i think i mispeled mispelled) but anyway, Yhnockey, maybe if i have time (i'm in the army too.. :) i'll change them all to "photo by beivushtang" instead a signature, i hope that's okay and isn't discouraged by the wikipedian spirit..

Infobox Israel muni

Hey! This time I decided to consult you before doing anything. I’d like to delete the “end of 2005” comment following the population figures. I myself have revised some population figures according to more resent estimates of the CBS, and I’m sure I’m no the only one. I believe it is no longer relevant, any thoughts? Thanks!

Road designation

Before I do any more edits I’d like to consult with you on a designation issue, so that we’ll agree on the best curse of action. As you know, the Israeli Ministry of Transport has 4 road designations – כביש מהיר, כביש ראשי, כביש אזורי, כביש מקומי (blue, red, green and brown respectively). What is the best English translation? I was thinking about – Freeway, Expressway (or Main Road), Regional Road and Local Road. Another issue is the use of “Highway” in the title, although we all probably agree that Highway 1, 2, 4 and so on, deserve to be called highways, I’m not sure that Road 443 should remain a “Highway”, and if not a "Highway", then what should it's title be, "Road 443"? I’d appreciate any comments, thanks. Db1944 19:08, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I’ve left you a response on my talk page. Db1944 19:22, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for..

Thanks for fixing the Table on the Bleach Media/material page. I dunno what I did wrong..

Israeli Highways routebox

I think this template needs another name. First of all because route is like highway, so it basically says Israeli highway highwaybox. But there are other reasons, like the fact that it's an infobox. Also it's not according to MOS ('highways' should not be capitalized) etc. I think the name should be: Infobox Israel highway. If you think this is bad, please state your reasons and we will discuss the naming. I will not move the template until you reply. I will however make cosmetic changes to its structure. -- Ynhockey 18:01, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I have no problem with the renaming and you’re free to move it. I was just modeling it after the UK Motorway Routbox. The colors I chose were shades of blue and white, but again – feel free to correct anything you feel is necessary. Db1944 18:08, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

The Godfather

That is a valid speedy deletion, no assertion of notability. The article did not assert notability and as far as I can tell doesn't meet the notability standard defined at WP:SOFTWARE. As to not being able to demonstrate notability for much software, then that software also shouldn't appear here wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. I'm not willing to undelete it at this time unless you can demonstrate that there are non-trivial third party reliable sources which would demonstrate some notability. --pgk 07:26, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

I am well aware of the status of WP:SOFTWARE, as am I aware of how policy is formed, WP:SOFTWARE is frequently referenced in debates relating to software concerning notability, it has a great enough significance that people use it as a yard stick. I am also aware that wikipedia policy is descriptive, not prescriptive - we don't sit around an ponitificate to form policy it's what we do which counts. If you would prefer in absence of applying WP:SOFTWARE I'll happily apply WP:CORP which it also easily fails. --pgk 12:55, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

With regards "I don't pretend to say that there cannot be any doubt as to whether the article should stay, but it definitely does not satisfy speedy deletion criteria." - it meets criteria A7 no assertion of notability, the article as was makes no assertion of notability. --pgk 13:00, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Hey Ян

If I might be so bold as to say so, you could try to be a little less judgmental in your edit summaries. Your wording here implies that my use of Erez as opposed to Erez, Israel was intended for subterfuge. Also, ` is not a quotation mark, it is an accent grave, just as ' is an apostrophe, not a quotation mark. ` is for ע; ' for intervocal א. Not all of us pronounce the two sounds identically. I hope you weren't trying to be rude. Other than that, I see you're gone to צה"ל presently, so I hope you return soon and safely. Tomer 23:56, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Vizard

I re-added the vizard thing to the trivia section. Vizard isn't Spanish, it's an archaic English word which probably left regular use sometime in the late 18th century. If you want to see an example that would be easy to find, check out Act II Scene II of Shakespeare's Henry IV Part I. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dabarnes (talk • contribs) 09:18, 19 December 2006 (UTC).

Yarkon river

Copied from incorrect talk page:
You chose to delete an some stuff about the yarkon. I managed to get a look at it before you deleted it and it was interesting. Also, it included substantial information about the river. Why did you think that it is a "mess"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Uja (talk • contribs) December 24, 2006.

Copied from incorrect location

I am new so I hope that you will get this messege. I saw the material that you deleted and I'm wondering why? I seems to be correct and it provides a lot of information besides the minimal and limited stuff that is in the text. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Uja (talk • contribs) December 28, 2006 (UTC)

Israel Defense Forces Insignia Article

Why have you changed my hebrew romanization, can I ask you? Why "Kheyl" but not "Kheil" can you tell me?

It's more correct to be "RAMATKAL" with bold letters than "Ramatkal" like itself. Why? couse it's short for "Rosh Ha'Mateh Ha'Klali". And if the last letter is "ה" then it must be "H". Example: "מטה" will be "Mateh".

I'm exploring the hebrew-foreign romanization it's long time, and please stop edit it.

Examples: KH - for "ח" (not including names and surnames such as "חיים". Will be: "Haim"). But correctly will be: "Khayim" as it's written so. CH - for "כ" (but not always. Such words as: "כסא". Will be: "Kise") Y - if there's twice "י" in word. Example: "חיילים" Will be: "Khayalim" TZ - for "צ" (and not "TS") like: "צה"ל" will be: "TZAHAL" and not "TSAHAL")

More effective examples it's the word (color) "Khaki" as in hebrew "חאקי" and the country "KazaKHstan" ("קזחסטן") and the arabian name "Khaled" ("חאלד")

And what's the deal with the images? I gived all the sources inside!

I beg you at last, please stop it!

Insignia template

The template was used on approxiamtely 280 images. I removed the tag using WP:AWB, which leaves an automatic edit summary. In about 95% of cases, the image from which I moved the {{insignia}} template had two licensing templates, leaving one intact. In a few cases, the removal left no licensing template. It was simply not efficient for me to hunt down another appropriate template, especially because I choose not to involve myself with copyright and have little to do with it, and consequently I do not know what would make a suitable replacement template. All I knew was that the template that was currently being used, was not helpful and consensus on its TfD was to delete it. I am sorry if this reply is not as helpful as you would of hoped. PLease feel free to contact me again if you have any questions or concerns. Best regards, RyanGerbil10(Упражнение В!) 17:35, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
