replies: text: I am one of the people constantly checking the accuracy of this list. So I stay tuned. Thank you very much for compiling so much important information! Very great! --Chajm (talk) 08:38, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Length of article

message: Nevi'im notes that Yemenites translate the haftarah verse by verse. That information should be included here, too, when someone writes about the procedure for reading the haftarah. —msh210 19:11, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Other traditions

message: does not belong on this page; it's irrelevant (and too long btw).—msh210℠ 19:10, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  {{tl|Torah portion}} 

message: Is there a special scroll for this too, or is a "book-shaped" book used? Is a book of all the Nevi'im used or one that contains only the various Haftarah portions? Where is the book stored? -- 77.7.128.202 18:14, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What is Haftarah read from? 

message: Although not common with Haftarot lists, I have provided the verse numbers for each week's Torah reading; these seem to be universal, and I thought it might make the list a trifle more helpful (and it's a very small addition).  I did not know - at least not about Mizrachi and regional traditions - the verses read for those Sabbaths that combine two parshas, nor the Torah readings for the various holidays, so I did not provide those.  Perhaps someone with sufficient Yiddishkeit can fill those gaps.Sussmanbern (talk) 22:18, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Additions of special haftarot and Italian tradition 

message: For the point of this article it doesn't seem to matter what they do, it clutters the article, I would reduce it to Ashkenazi and Sfardi, and put more footnotes elsewhere.  Saxophonemn (talk) 22:03, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Dardai or Dor Daim are a subset of Yemenites.  This article links to the article that explains this. I strongly advocate the inclusion of as many traditions as possible. --Sir Myles na Gopaleen (the da) (talk) 12:28, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

text: It's Romaniotes, not Romanian, though the liturgy is called minhag Romania.  There are still Romaniote communities, but they now use the Sephardi liturgy. --Sir Myles na Gopaleen (the da) (talk) 10:19, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Karaites 

message: In the text:
Haftarot for Leviticus
    * Vayikra (1:1–5:26)
          o A, S: Isaiah 43:21–44:23
          o Y, I, some Maghreb: Isaiah 43:21–44:6
          o R: Isaiah 43:21–44:13
          o K: Isaiah 53:21–54:23
The final item looks inconsistent, especially as Isaiah 53:21 does not exist.  I assume it should read:
          o K: Isaiah 43:21–44:23

thread_title:  Typo in Haftarot for Leviticus 

message: Could someone please tell me from which books the informations of this article about the readings of Romaniotes originate? In the following texts I found other data:
 "The prophetic readings of the Byzantine ritual differed fundamentally from those of the other Rabbanite Jews of the diaspora. They have been preserved in the editions of the haftarot published with the Commentary of David Kimchi in Constantinople, 1505; and in the edition of the Pentateuch and haftarot, published in Constantinople, 1522" (and theorizing the Romaniote readings were a perpetuation of the selections of early medieval Eretz Yisrael). Louis Finkelstein, "The Prophetic Readings According to the Palestinian, Byzantine, and Karaite Rites", Hebrew Union College Annual, vol. 17 (1942-1943) page 423; Adolf Büchler, "The Reading of the Law and Prophets in a Triennial Cycle (part ii)" Jewish Quarterly Review, vol. 6, nr. 1 (Oct. 1893) pages 1-73, discusses in some detail evidence of very early choices of haftarot, particularly of the Karaites.

replies: text: ¶ @User:Informationskampagne This list is based on the list of the Encyclopedia Talmudit - as far as I can see. This tradition was marked with a Resh (R) in the ET. Another user assumed this points to the Romanian minhag. This is somewhere above :-) --Chajm (talk) 14:17, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  I was wrong! @User:Informationskampagne (sorry) The romaniote haftarot are marked with a tet ט in the list of the ET. The Romaniote are marked with an R here in the Wikipedia list of the haftarot. --Chajm (talk) 22:00, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

text: @User:Informationskampagne From my point of view the creators of the table simply started with Alef and used the whole alfabet to mark the different minhagim. The letters are not meant as abbreviations. --Chajm (talk) 12:15, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Romaniote Haftaroth 

message: From a Jewish perspective there is, of course, no "new" testament.  Therefore I changed one unqualified reference that was not a quote from "New Testament" to NPOV "Christian Bible".
There are couple of other instances in Reference number 8, but I seem to be unable to edit that section. Dori1951 (talk) 18:59, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
