thread_title: Error?

message: The way the article is currently divided into sections makes no sense to me; can anyone explain it?
Examples of things I don't get:
*Why the lead text of the "Word order" section is a paragraph about the definite article. (Indeed, the entire "Word order" section has exactly one sentence about word order: the first sentence in its last paragraph.)
*Why direct objects and adjectives are grouped together into one section (though adjectives also get a section to themselves, later on).
*Why the section titled "Indirect objects" has one paragraph about indirect objects (with no grammatical information, by the way; instead, it names a bunch of semantic categories that don't actually bear on grammar), one sentence about sentences without subjects, and the bulk of two paragraphs about connecting clauses and such.
Does anyone object to a complete restructuring of most of this information?

replies: text: Thanks for bringing this up, Ruakh.  I agree, the section ordering is strange.  Indeed, reworking it was second on my list of things to do (after adding all the Hebrew lettering, which of course, I have not yet completed).  I'd love to see the ordering be fixed.  You're welcome to just go ahead and do it, but could you propose some new possible orderings here first? — Ke6jjj 18:53, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I wonder if someone would be kind enough to take a look at the entry for this article in []. The criteria used by periodbot may be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Punctuation. I don't feel qualified to review the punctuation in the article, but one of the editors here may want to judge whether any of the flags have merit.

replies: text: That page is far out of date; the article has changed so much that little of what Periodbot flagged is still in the article. Ruakh 04:15, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Something important that is missing

message: In the table which lists different binyanim and tenses for the root כתב, the final one -- יתכתב (yitkatev) -- should have a dagesh in the second ת, should it not? (i.e. יתכּתּב). I don't want to make the edit because editing Hebrew on an English computer is always worrisome. I'd rather leave it to someone with a little more expertise. ;) J21 04:09, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
