This is ridiculous, Historian! First off, Haredi (in general) or Lithuanian Haredi (in particular) criticism is a perfectly valid topic for the encyclopedia. If it's sourced, it's includable, much as you may not like it. Next, Yated is as prominent as news organ in the Haredi world. Its opinions, including its editorials, do represent the views of the Lithuanian Orthodox leadership, and a discussion of those is valid here as well. Finally, Daniel575 is not even Litvish! He's explicitly a follower of the Dushinsky Hasidus, and by nationality is Dutch. Your positions here are ridiculous. Superfinally, stop using Yiddish and Hebrew terms! Andy is not Jewish, and probably has no idea wtf you're talking about! -  talk/email
