Template talk:Hasidic dynasties by country of ancestral origin

message: There are two pages on the Template.
The first group should be Podolia- Ukraine, not Russia. Or Eastern Ukraine.
Tolne should be in this group not in the Galcia group. --Jayrav 21:04, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Two pages??? the first group were in the Russian Empire. Podolia maybe (certainly not Ukraine, which did not yet exist), but chasidim do refer to these dynasties as 'Russian'. Will check Talne. --Redaktor 22:39, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

text: Moved Talne—thanks for spotting this. --Redaktor 22:52, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

text: I don't want to get into a major argument over this, but the Russian Empire existed in the 18th century, not just the 20th! Very few, if any,  Hasidic dynasties came into existence during the Polsih Commonwealth. 1815 might be a good date to choose (Congress of Vienna). --Redaktor 05:07, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

text: I think that I have already put all the Vohlin  locations in the right list (correct me if I am wrong). The rest are Russian Podolia, so I could change the name. The name Ukraine was, AFAIK, not usd by Jews before WW1. I was trying to capture the names used by Jews eg Russian chasidus, Litvish chasidus, Galitzyaner chasidus. --Redaktor 07:24, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Isn't Chabad a Russian chassidus? The link to the Chabad page even says as such. I won't change it if others object, but I wouldn't call Chabad a Lita based chassidus. Yossiea (talk) 19:45, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I wouldn't call myself an expert in chassidus, but isn't there at least one town in current-day Belarus that qualifies as a founding seat of chassidus? E.g. Kletzk, Drogichen [i.e. Drahichyn], Karlin, to name a few? -- kosboot (talk) 13:08, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Belarus is part of the region known to Jews as Lita (very roughly the Grand Duchy of Lithuania). Karlin is listed. If you know any more such towns, please add (or report here). I am not aware of any chasidus founded in Kletsk or Drohychin, but I may be mistaken. --Redaktor (talk) 15:39, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: My error:  I now realize that the list is based on historic, not contemporary names of countries. I'll keep the desire to expand circles in mind. -- kosboot (talk) 19:22, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
