message: Does anyone object if the symbol of membership in this group is changed to something other than the blue magen david? this symbol has come to carry a strong connection with zionism, which is a movement fundamentally at odds with Orthodox Judaism, and thus not appropriate for use as a symbol. How about a symbol of a Sefer Torah? Yehoishophot Oliver 16:36, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I most definitely agree. Or how about a picture of.... a Kiddush cup? Yes, a Kiddush cup would be great. --Rabbeinu 09:08, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This is not the place to to discuss whether you do or don't support Zionism. The  point at issue is whether a blue magen David is  a symbol of Orthodox Judaism. I don't think it is.--Redaktor 05:21, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

text: I created a Torah scroll icon as an experiment: :Image:Torah.png. It's not very good, but it should look ok if scaled down in size, and I hope someone will improve it. Also, I saw a couple other images in :m:Category:Jewish symbols:commons:Category:Jewish symbols that might do, or else maybe photograph could be used. nadav (talk) 08:59, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: A Torah scroll is  a good idea and captures the essence of the project. It would be OK even without text, or closed. [NB there are no images at m:Category:Jewish symbols ] --Redaktor 12:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I like the Torah scroll image, but the letters in the picture make it look silly. Take out the letters and it will be good to go.--DLandTALK 13:21, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I second that. Shlomke 02:17, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Here's how it looks with the current scroll image. Feel free to play with it (e.g. change the colors etc. I'm not that artistic). I'll upload a new image without the letters in a bit.  nadav (talk) 03:11, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't get the idea that everybody who is listed there is actually active on Wikipedia at all, let alone with this project. That's why I'm asking people to leave a note. --Rabbeinu 07:18, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I read this page, but I rarely comment on anything.  sometimes I look at the article which people post "OMG this article really needs help" (as if there aren't thousands of such articles).  Jon513 17:18, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Who are active here?

message: This has been inactive for many months. Perhaps it's time to remove it. or maybe it should be modified to something like "Collaboration of the month" instead of week if people are still interested. Shlomke 02:15, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: See Wikipedia:Templates_for_deletion/Log/2007_April_17#Template:ORBCOTW. The editors who voted keep were being overly optimistic about it, in my opinion, though. --DLandTALK 02:57, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree to rename it "Collaboration of the Month" and if it works out to change it back to "Collaboration of the Week"; but someone should actually change it on every first of the month. Itzse 17:00, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I know that several projects which use the project banner of another project in terms of article assessment. The various subprojects of Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia come to mind. Would the members of this project like to have information included in the project banner of Wikipedia:WikiProject Judaism which would assess the articles for this project as well?

message: Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Comment on the WikiProject X proposal 

message: Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.
