New discussions
Source for Jimbo quote
CH, you recently wroye in the General Relativity Talk page:
- While as of June 2006 there are still some Wikipedians knowledgeable about gtr, given what I view as the failure of WP as a source reliable information (see recent comments by our founder, Jimbo Wales),
Could you give me a reference for this quote? Also, have you discussed the possibility of creating a Physics wiki, one that has a measure of formal peer review, disallows all edits by anonymoys users, and requires registered users to give a valid e-mail? If Jimbo weren't so insistent on anarchy (literally) Misplaced Pages could have had a chance to be useful. As it turns out, however, it has sunk into a morass that can never be redeemed. RK 12:42, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, Robert. RK 12:42, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
- I'm looking for it myself. I missed the NY Times article, unfortunately, but I've seen several which mention a St. Petersburg Times interview in which their most famous netizen allegedly said that Misplaced Pages cannot now or ever be used as a reference (e.g. for schoolwork), which to my mind is inconsistent with the reason I came here: to create an encyclopedia. I am still searching Google and places in WP for a working link to the text of this interview. ---CH 21:22, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
Criticism of Haredi Judaism
Hello RK! I had mentioned in Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Judaism that until recently Modern Orthodox Judaism was the only major denomination with a criticism section. I notice in particular that Haredi Judaism doesn't have a criticism section. Perhaps you might be interested in created a section explaining the difficulties people to the left of Haredi Judaism have with it(properly sourced of course). Best wishes. And perhaps the way their leaders talk about other denominations might be one of the issues of concern. --Shirahadasha 22:33, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello again RK! It's great to see you're still active on Misplaced Pages. Just thought I'd let you know - if you have time, your expertise will be helpful on this page. Regards. 172 | Talk 05:03, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Blocked
RK, you have been blocked for 1 week following your violation of the No personal attacks aspect of your arbitration case. Details can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Arbitration_enforcement#RK_2 --PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 03:24, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Merges, moves
_ _ Hi, didn't notice your return until just now; welcome back.
_ _ While i haven't looked to see whether you at least preserved the former text,
your conversion into a Dab of Avodah Zarah amounts to either a cut-&-paste move or a bootleg deletion. The previous revisions belong as part of the page-history of Idolatry in Judaism, even if the text is redundant. Don't do that.

What the Bleep Do We Know!?
Hello, I'm writing you to determine if there is concensus amoung recent editors of What the Bleep Do We Know!? to remove it's NPOV tag. Please weigh in with your opinion on the talk page Talk:What_the_Bleep_Do_We_Know!?. Thanks!! Adelord 19:25, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
hey
If you have five minutes, go here and read talk topics 13-15. If you think it is important, then consider commenting, Slrubenstein | Talk 06:13, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
the Good Book
Hag Sameach!
Do you think it is controversial to claim that Jews call their Tanakh "the Bible?" I don't. Do you think it is controversial to claim that "the Bible" refers only to the combined "Old Testament" and "New Testament," i.e. is a term that refers to the sacred scriptures of Christians (but not Jews)? I do, but this is precisely the claim Home Computer is making on the Bible talk page: http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Bible#Current_layout
Feel free to weigh in. And please watch out for Home Computer's attempts to change the article. Slrubenstein | Talk 10:59, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Please disregard, this wikipedian is stirring trouble, see his talk page. --Home Computer 15:20, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Article in need of cleanup - please assist if you can
|
The article Book of Ezekiel, to which you have helped contribute, has been flagged as requiring cleanup. If possible, we would appreciate your assistance in cleaning up this article to bring it up to Misplaced Pages's quality standards. If you are unsure what the nature of the problem is, please discuss this on the article's talk page. |
Your Trolling
Stop trolling or I will need to block you. RobertKaiser 03:49, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Re.:Greenpeace
You asked who considers Greenpeace terrorists. All of the civilized world does. When France initiated some nuclear testing, Greenpeace tried to interfere, and got one of their boats shot all to hell, it sank. In the US, the FBI, other law enforcement considers them terrorists. See Operation Backfire (FBI) for more and/or go to this link: www.fbi.gov/page2/jan06/elf012006.htm which is the last known info on this law enforcement operation, status of which is Active/Ongoing. All of the known "Eco-Terrorists orgs and those not mentioned here are being infiltrated, to take them down. IF you're in one of these orgs, its best to GET OUT and wait for the heat to die down. 65.163.112.128 (talk) 17:08, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
- I did not mean to be hard on you, just stating that when these people are caught, they either end up in jail and/or in a mental hospital. 65.163.112.128 (talk) 17:10, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
User:RobertKaiser vs User:RK
Hi: Who is User:RobertKaiser and who is User:RK? Are you one and the same or different users or both? IZAK 09:14, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- This user is not Robert Kaiser. He is a troll, pretending to be me.
- If you have evidence of tolling, suggest you report this on WP:AN. If the primary issue is the name suggest WP:RFCN. Shabbat Shalom, --Shirahadasha 20:53, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
Stop pretending to be me
Stop pretending to me, it is considered to be trolling and I will block you for it. RobertKaiser 21:44, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
- Back off RobertKaiser. You are being disruptive. Yuser31415 (Editor review two!) 02:31, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Could you review these articles?
Could you have a look at these articles and their talk?
I feel the articles are extremely well sourced and balanced. I'd like somebody else to remove the tags. Please look at my last versions, because I have run up against somebody from the evolution/creation universe who wants to pick a fight. --Metzenberg 03:10, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
List of pubs
As someone who has contributed to the talk page discussion on List of publications in philosophy and/or that article's previous deletion debate, I thought you might be interested in participating in its new nomination for deletion which can be found here. Thanks. - KSchutte 17:20, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Serious discussions about using the names Reform vs. Progressive Judaism
Hi RK: Please see the present discussions at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Countering systemic bias/open tasks#WikiProject Judaism needs help - geographical bias concerns. Your input would be greatly appreciated. (They are the result of discussions that unfolded at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Judaism#Concern about duplicating Reform and Progressive labels.) Thanks so much, IZAK 08:55, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
An interesting AfD
Hello. You may be interested in commenting on this Afd and contributing to it's associated discussion.Ghanadar galpa (talk) 22:36, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
Question for RK
I am interested in some information you wrote in the "Semicha" article. You wrote "A minority of Jewish writers maintain that a form of the original semicha continued to be practiced in small numbers as late as the eleventh century CE"( Posted by RK, 21:33, 24 August 2004).
This comment has recently been removed for lack of citation.
I am very interested in the source of this information or anything else at all you may be able to share with me about it.
You may answer on the Talk Page or feel free to contact me at the following email address: CWatchman2@gmail.com
Thank you very much,
CWatchman (talk) 03:05, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Binding of Isaac article name change
Thanks for your comments and contributions at Binding of Isaac. About 3 weeks ago, I proposed to change the name of the article to "Sacrifice of Isaac" at Talk:Binding of Isaac#Name of this article, but so far haven't seen any response. I plan to go ahead and rename the article on March 20, 2008 unless there are objections. I invite you to visit the article and submit any comments you have on the matter. Thanks! --Bryan H Bell (talk) 17:42, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
- Five editors have responded to the proposal described above. Four oppose and one is neutral. The consensus is opposed to the name change. I'll therfore leave the article as currently named ("Binding of Isaac") and consider the matter closed. --Bryan H Bell (talk) 03:00, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Rebbe Nachman of Breslov
Hello. I saw that you once edited the above page. I have decided to submit this article to peer review in order to qualify for Featured Article status. Would you kindly click on the above link and add your comments or suggestions? Thank you, Yoninah (talk) 21:30, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Many many thanks
You did a wonderful job in your section on 20th & 21st century commentaries. You trod in waters that I was afraid to tread in. I avoided the moderns by only including commentaries printed in a Mikraot Gedolot, and I didn't realize that would confine me to Hebrew. Now I feel free to put in sections about Nechama Leibovits, Umberto Cassuto, etc. Again, thanks for pulling me out of a rut as well as the research you did.
I am going to make a few changes though. I don't think the appendices to the Etz Hayim belong in this article. Also I don't know how much overlap there is between the Etz Hayim and the new JPS commentary/translation. Just know that nothing I say is written in stone, and I'm almost always open to suggestions. Phil_burnstein (talk) 04:08, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Torah Judaism and Daat Miqra
Robert, thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt. As far as the Daat Miqra goes, I wish there were an English translation. That would be an incredible thing. Unfortunately, none exists that I know of. That'd be a fascinating project, though. I wonder if Mossad Harav Kook would be interested in it. They do the Daat Miqra series, no? -LisaLiel (talk) 04:28, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
Your user page
I found your old user page while checking out some old deleted contributions. I have history merged it, so that all edits are in one place. Hope you don't mind. Graham87 12:07, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
Copyright question
Hi. Another contributor has noted a similarity between the page Hillel the Elder, which you contributed way back in 2003, and the Jewish Encyclopedia article, which bears a copyright notice of 2002. I have confirmed substantial duplication of text, so I've blanked the article pending some clarification of the matter. Can you help provide any clarification on this issue and the origin of this text? --Moonriddengirl 14:08, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
- Just noting for bypassers (since I have mailed the contributor): I've clarified this one for myself. Notwithstanding the copyright notice, the material is public domain. --Moonriddengirl 14:46, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
Merge
I've just proposed merging Unification Church and antisemitism (which you worked on) into Divine Principle. Please join in the discussion, if you like. Steve Dufour (talk) 15:42, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Silver Bridge (bridge)
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Silver Bridge (bridge), and it appears to be very similar to another Misplaced Pages page: Silver Bridge. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally moving or duplicating content, please be sure you have followed the procedure at Misplaced Pages:Splitting by acknowledging the duplication of material in edit summary to preserve attribution history.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 13:53, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

"Ultra-Orthodox" in Haredi article (courtesy note)
You contributed to a past discussion about the term "Ultra-Orthodox" on the Haredi Judaism page. I removed the content in Haredi Judaism that claimed that "Ultra-Orthodox" is pejorative. I have explained my reasons on the talk page. -shirulashem 15:30, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
Sirach article
In an 18 May 2003 edit to the Sirach article you added the /* Reference */ section with Amidah, entry in the Encyclopedia Judaica, Keter Publishing. The article has been considerably changed since then. I am not sure what that reference was intended as. Any help you could provide would be appreciated.

AfD nomination of Jewish fundamentalism
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Jewish fundamentalism. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Misplaced Pages:Notability and "What Misplaced Pages is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Jewish fundamentalism. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:08, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
Your Intro
You quote .P._Lovecraft: "We know nothing except through logical analysis, and if we reject that sole connexion with reality, we might as well stop trying to be adults and retreat into the capricious dream-world of infantility." This seems incorrect. We know our consciousness exists with a visceral self-awareness. There is no logical analysis.
