Talk:Yosef Shalom Elyashiv

message: Rabbi Eliashiv may be old, but he's got his senses. I don't think it is reasonable to blame his "entourage" for bending or reinterpreting responses. As for the Slifkin case, he is one of the signatories after incitement by an unnamed Bnei Berak Rabbi. He has signed many more proclamations in a similar fashion, and (as Slifkin's web page testifies) he stands behind his condemnation. Every rabbi may invoke Daat Torah as reason for his opinion. Whether this is accepted is an entirely different matter and need not be discussed specifically in his case. JFW | T@lk 11:35, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I am moving Eliashiv, Yosef Shalom here. I was under the impression that Rav Eliashiv was born in Jerusalem, can anyone confirm this? Thanks. IZAK
No he moved to palestine when he was 12 years old. His parents came from lithuania, and were close to the turkish speaking jewish community there (the karaim). If I am not mistaken, the surname of his parents were actually turkish, namely erener. 77.249.201.75 (talk) 23:29, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

message: What was the name of the daughter killed by the Jordanians?  Tomertalk 00:13, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I just put his children's names in the infobox. He had 12 children, not 11 — five sons and seven daughers. One son, Yitzchak, died as a child, and one daughter, Rivkah, died in Jordanian shelling in 1948. I expanded the family section using an online reference. The article listed the the daughters in order of birth, but not the sons. Yoninah (talk) 20:43, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Killed daughter's name 

message: Wasn't he once a judge in the Rabbanut and resigned in protest of an incident where Rabbi Goren dismissed a ruling of his and his fellow judges, due to a political request by Golda Meir? This Wikipedia page does not reflect that part of his life.

thread_title:  Position 

message: This page was moved from Yosef Shalom Elyashiv to Yosef Shalom Eliashiv on 29 August 2006 by a user who claimed it is the "correct spelling of name". Well, according to all English sources that I'm consulting to expand the page, Elyashiv is the more common spelling in English. (On Google, Eliashiv gets 116,000 hits and Elyashiv gets 148,000 hits.) Can other editors weigh in on whether to rename the page Yosef Shalom Elyashiv? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 21:43, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Your google test shows no preference for either spelling; 116 and 148 are about the same for such a crude measure.  On the other hand, English newspapers in Israel like Haaretz, Ynet and J Post prefer "Elyashiv" by a very large margin (more than a factor of 10). The only Haredi magazine I looked at (Mishpacha) uses Elyashiv exclusively. Without more information, it seems that Elyashiv would be a better name, so I support moving it back.
