thread_title:  Norman Finkelstein's Parents 

message: The current version of this article states that "Finkelstein's doctoral thesis examined the claims made in Joan Peters's From Time Immemorial".
This is not correct. A digitized version of Finkelstein's dissertation (Norman G. Finkelstein, "From the Jewish Question to the Jewish State: An Essay on the Theory of Zionism" (PhD dissertation: Princeton, 1988)) is now available from ProQuest: Peters's book does not even appear in its bibliography (which includes every title cited in his notes.)
Finkelstein's critique of FTI was a side project. It was published first as an article in the journal In These Times, and then as a chapter in the book Blaming the Victims.
This passage in the article should be edited to read: "While still a graduate student at Princeton, Finkelstein published a critique of the claims made in Joan Peters's From Time Immemorial".

Talk:Erwin Panofsky

message: German-American art historian and essayist, whose famous books include The Life and Art of Albrecht Dürer (1943) and Studies in Iconology (1939). Panofsky defined an artist as "one who is full of images." He was especially concerned with the iconography of the various periods he studied and interpreted works through the themes, symbols, and ideas inherent in the history of art.

Talk:Tithe

message: Hello . I noticed that you have removed criticism of the financial abuses by religious leaders. However, it has been there for many years. This section being neutral and very well referenced, this action looks like to Wikipedia:Vandalism. Also, as Wikipedia:Criticism#Philosophy,_religion,_or_politics explains, “For topics about a particular point of view – such as philosophies (Idealism, Naturalism, Existentialism), political outlooks (Capitalism, Marxism), or religion (Islam, Christianity, Atheism) – it will usually be appropriate to have a "Criticism" section”. See also Christianity#Criticism. Finally, it is an academic, encyclopedic and social responsibility, to denounce financial abuses by religious leaders in order to help people to identify them and specially to avoid new victims. This is what Jesus Christ has done many times in his ministry, including denouncing the love of money (Mammon) and the hypocrisy of religious leaders who devour the house of widows (Luke 20:47). Thanks for your help. My best wishes of peace and love (Wikipedia:WikiLove).--Nathan B2 (talk) 18:29, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Passover

message: This section is giving credence to highly controversial atheistic and anti Semitic views. Suggest that since the article is on a Jewish festival commemorating God freeing the Israelites from Slavery out of Egypt, the origin section is removed or at least renamed “alternative origin theory”. If one needs to know the origin of the festival, one should start by reading the Haggadah first. Chag Samech.

: Most of the articles I've found on the Pentateuch and Judaism content area are dominated by atheistic biblical minimalism misconstrued as "scholarly consensus", Wellhausen's discredited documentary hypothesis assumed as fact and stated in WikiVoice, and denials of jewish text and history that miscontrued as "Mainstream".  Anti-semitism?  That is by accident. It is basic ignorance. antijudaism and more than that, a combination of atheism and nostalgic polytheism. As a consequence, it seems like Jewish editors have taking to writing in "Yinglish" and not translating. As of 2021, there is still no mention of the Haggadah in the lede. The passover wikilink didn't appear in the Exodus until I recently put it there. Its not enough to complain - Editors like you should add that.Jaredscribe (talk) 00:17, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Hard disagree with these comments, which seem to be upset that Wikipedia doesn't assume that every religion is 'true'.

Talk:Economic inequality

message: :How is it even possible to talk about inequality and not once explain the effects of trickle-down economics or that it doesn't work, according to extensive research and is proven to worsen economic equality? The article doesn't seem to mention the term anywhere or at least it's not easy to find it when reading the article.49.179.8.17 (talk) 17:41, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Not even one mention of trickle down economics?

message: The section trying to link trade liberalization to inequality is cited to a source that says nothing of the sort. The IMF source concludes:
"There is a common belief that globalization harms the interests of workers, especially unskilled workers, either directly through immigration or indirectly through trade and capital mobility. Particularly with respect to import competition, these beliefs appear to be at odds with the empirical evidence that globalization has only a modest effect on wages, employment, and income inequality in the advanced economies."
There is broad consensus among economists that liberalized trade improves living standards and productive efficiency, and these benefits greatly outweigh any effects on employment.
It appears that someone with a political agenda has been editing this section of the article. I'd chalk it up to near-total ignorance but the misquoting of the IMF source implies something more deceptive. Jonathan f1 (talk) 01:38, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Globalization 

message: Lede seems very wordy and pedantic. Should the definition of economic inequality be summarized?  
I was thinking about paraphrasing to the following: 
Economic inequality is the gap between the rich and poor, usually measuring the differences in income, wealth or consumption. 
And then adding the rest of the lede:  
Each of these can be measured between two or more nations, within a single nation, or between and within sub-populations (such as within a low-income group, within a high-income group and between them, within an age group and between inter-generational groups, within a gender group and between them etc, either from one or from multiple nations).[2], yada, yada, yada.

Talk:Allen Ginsberg

message: The quote by Dworkin in the NAMBLA section looks pretty damning. But reading a bit of the background, I wonder if the relationship between Dworkin and Ginsberg ought to be contextualised, especially in these days of cancel culture, where calling out someone as a pedophile or rapist is essentially the kiss of death, making everything else about that person irrelevant. Take a look at this article from a reputable source, the NYT, where Dworkin is described as idolising Ginsberg before radically turning an aboutface: https://www.nytimes.com/2002/03/10/books/antiporn-star.html - something just doesn't seem to add up, and I think this could merit a bit of discussion. Particularly in the light of Dworkin not necessarily being a reputable source, as the concluding paragraph of the NYT article makes very clear. Totorotroll (talk) 20:43, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  The NAMBLA section appears biassed by certain users with an agenda framing Ginsberg as a paedophile based on dubious claims. Veniaur (talk) 00:32, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm confused. Regardless of whether there's a motive ('agenda') behind some users insisting the information is included, it's not 'framing' if it's true, and it's indisputable (or, as indisputable as that the earth is round, at least) that he was a member of NAMBLA, which is an organization advocating for pedophilia. Unless your goal is to distinguish pedophilia from hebephilia, which is a term and distinction not widely adopted by the broader public, there is no misinformation here, only inconvenient facts. The article doesn't even mention the not-all-that-dubious claims that he had sex with child prostitutes in Morocco. Have you considered that there might be an agenda behind certain users' (and apparently your) denial of Ginsberg's pedophilic proclivities to the point that even mentioning the verifiable fact that he was an active member of NAMBLA is considered unacceptable? 107.2.72.8 (talk) 22:58, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
