Talk:Pharaoh's daughter (Exodus)

message: The article states that the "Rabbinic Midrash makes her [Bithiah] the daughter of one of the Pharaohs of the Exodus", and then gives a link to the [Pharaohs of the Exodus]. However, on following up on this link, there is a list of eight Pharaohs, but the connection of this list with the Rabbinic Midrash is anything but clear !

message: It is interesting that her name is also given as Merris or Merrhoe, and the name of her husband as Mered.  Das Baz, aka Erudil 18:55, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

message: I've always learned it as Batya. I don't know if Bitya works grammatically. She is renamed from Bat-Paroh (Daughter of Pharaoh) to Bat-Ya (Daughter of God) because she followed in the latter's ways instead of the former. I wonder what the correct pronunciation is. In Modern Israeli society there are many people named Batya but I don't know of any named Bitya. Any ideas? Valley2city‽ 10:39, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

message: I intend to cite/cut/weed this part of the article. Especially the film has to much text per WP:PROPORTION. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:00, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Which film? I don't really see that myself. Johnbod (talk) 13:52, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: , IMO both. None has any cites, and the appearance of this biblical character in these dramas is of minor importance for this article, unless there are good sources that spend text on this portrayal. I haven't looked for sources yet. To make a WP:OSE comparison, I think this  is an improvement. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:03, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I suspect the films will be what bring many, possibly most, readers here. By all means condense stray listings, but I think the actors should be kept, especially when they are big stars like Michelle Pfeiffer. Johnbod (talk) 14:23, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The films may be what brings many readers here, but absent sources, they are of minor importance from the WP-perspective. That Helen Mirren voiced her matters little in this article. Btw, I can't remember seeing "portrayed by" in an infobox like this before, and I can't say I like it. Going WP:OSE again, there's no Charlton Heston at Moses' infobox. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:35, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: No, I only meant they should be in the text. I'd happily lose the whole infobox, as at Esther, Rachel & similar figures. Johnbod (talk) 14:44, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
