Talk:Taybeh

message: problems and issues happens all the time and every where, even within the very same family. I think that its not appropriate to mention any of these issues and give a bad reputation about taybeh and Palestine since it just happened only ONCE long time ago, and everything has been SOLVED now and back to normal.--213.6.11.49 (talk) 17:22, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think it gives a bad reputation to anyone, exactly because conflicts happen all the time and everywhere. The inclusion of this matter is a question of it's notability. If we exclude it, we'd better do it for right reason. --ElComandanteChe (talk) 18:23, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

text: It was apparently a notable event, mentioned by reliable independent sources. Wikipedia is not in the business of whitewashing history. And Wikipedia does not care at all what the residents want. Wikipedia is built on verifiable statements, not just the "good news" and not just how things are "now".

message: Let's start in 1964, when the area was under Jordanian rule. Jordan had no legal claim to the land, and still:
"THE PALESTINIAN NATIONAL CHARTER" (Al-Mithaq Al-Kawmee Al-Philisteeni), Adopted in 1964 by the 1st Palestinian Conference
Article 24: This Organization does not exercise any territorial sovereignty over the West Bank in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, on the Gaza Strip or in the Himmah Area.
The Arabs there, who had never ever controlled the area, officially gave up all sovereign claims.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lanlan lanwan (talk • contribs) 15:48, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That is simply not true. The PLO said it did not exercise "territorial sovereignty", they did not "give up" any "claims". Jordan at the time was considered "trustee occupant" by the Arab League. Its attempted annexation of the territory was not accepted by any state except for the UK and the Arab League explicitly denied that action had any legitimacy. Jordan has since ceded any claims on the West Bank to the PLO. The territory is recognized as occupied Palestinian territory by nearly the entire world. Israel does not even claim that this is in Israel. nableezy - 15:52, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This is great, but let's first define the problem we are going to solve. --ElComandanteChe (talk) 15:53, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This user has been changing "West Bank" to "Judea and Samaria". Based on the other edits and what I can decipher from the above argument it appears as though they wish to claim this village as being in Israel and to use Israeli-preferred terminology. nableezy - 16:38, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. Please also note this small talk. However I'd like Lanlan to formulate the problem first, and then present the arguments. Hopefully, this way we can proceed without using telepathy. --ElComandanteChe (talk) 16:52, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Location 

message: I think an information about the emigration from Taybeh and about US Taybeh diaspora has to be added. Thoughts, links, etc. will be appreciated.Also, the copyvio about Taybeh churches has been recently removed, it's worth addition also. --ElComandanteChe (talk) 20:45, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Information the article is missing 

message: As the tag itself specifies, it is meant to reference some discussion of the material. What do you challenge Gilabrand? That Taybeh is all-Christian or that it is that last such village in the West Bank? The Levy piece says last all-Christian village in the West Bank, the Time piece says With just 2,000 residents, Taybeh is the last remaining all-Christian village in the Holy Land. Is there a reason we should doubt those two sources? Regarding the undue weight tag, I agree, and Ill look at working on that later if you, or someone else, dont get to it first. nableezy - 05:07, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  dubious tag 

message: The article contains the following: The operation of the brewery is opposed by Muslim extremists. The mayor's car has been torched and his property vandalized. This is cited to this op-ed by a comedian. As far as I recall, an op-ed by a comedian is not a suitable source for claiming what Muslim extremists do, and an actually reliable source is needed for the sentence. Please provide one or I will be removing the claim. nableezy - 16:08, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: And now this source has been added to support the sentence. The problem is that the source does not in any way do so. It does not say that mayor's car or property had been vandalized, it does not say that the brewery is opposed by Muslim extremists. It says that a dozen homes in Taybeh were torched following an alleged relationship between a Christian man from Taybeh and a Muslim woman from Deir Jarir. It also says This is not so much a battle between Christian and Muslim as one between Palestinian officialdom and tribal justice. To be blunt, somebody who claims that this source supports what is cited to it is lying about the source. nableezy - 17:46, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

text: In fact, the story is already covered in the article, under the heading Religious conflict. I going to remove this source distortion as it is quite simply nonsense that somebody could claim that it supports the cited sentence. nableezy - 17:48, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: I've removed the source as it's clearly one of those Islamophobic publications. There's really no defense for its inclusion in the article particularly in this situation where it's trying to paint a picture of Muslim-Christian hostility in Taybeh. Find a reliable source which states that Taybeh is surrounded by "hostile" Muslims and the reason residents are leaving is because of this hostility, not a fringe source whose apparent purpose is to besmirch Muslims. --Al Ameer son (talk) 18:54, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

message: I removed the following from the article:
In January 2021, Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) led by researchers Tzachi Lang and Kojan Haku announced the discovery of 1,500-year-old mosaic inscription that reads ‘Christ, born of Mary. This work of the most God-fearing and pious bishop [Theodo]sius and the miserable Th[omas] was built from the foundation. Whoever enters should pray for them’ from the frame of an entrance door of a church. 
According to archaeologist Dr. Walid Atrash, Theodosius was one of the first Christian bishops and this church was the first evidence of the Byzantine church’s existence in the village of et-Taiyiba.

This clearly refers to Taibe, Galilee. Alas, this source, from sci-news.com also mix it up, linking to the ARIJ-page for this Palestinian West Bank city(!)  see link.
This West Bank Palestinian village is not in the  Jezreel Valley, again, that is Taibe, Galilee. Take a look at Taybeh (disambiguation), please.
Also, just writing that the  Israel Antiquities Authority had done research into an occupied  Palestinian West Bank village should have set some alarm clocks ringing.... Cheers, Huldra (talk) 21:53, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

message: That is in the lead. I don't doubt that TIME wrote it (link), it just isn't true. People can just click on the "Palestinian Christian communities"-categry list, to find others. When ignorant journalists write untruths, Wikipedia should not report it as the truth. (However much WP:RS it is), Huldra (talk) 22:05, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

message: According to the wikipedia article on it Ephraim in the wilderness, Taybeh is the city of Ephraim in Judah, to which Jesus went between the raising of Lazarus from the dead and the final confrontation in Jerusalem (John 11:54). Should this claim be included? Does anyone know if the locals assert that Jesus was there during this period? Ender's Shadow Snr (talk) 17:54, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
