Talk:List of Jewish historians

message: — JIP | Talk 09:21, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

message: * What do you think about creation of List of Jewish Philosophers and Historians instead of category of Philosophers in List of Jewish Scientists and Philosophers and List of Jewish historians ? 
* LazarKr 16:41, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I wouldn't lump philosophers and historians in one list.  I'd be happy to see a list of Jewish philosophers, though no doubt others would not. - RachelBrown 18:51, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  from LazarKr to Rachel Brown 

message: * I agree with you. But may be my suggestion whould be compromise that will rise less objections?. At present, List of Historians is not well located, List of Scientists and Philosophers is too large and Grouping Scientists and Philosophers is not perfect solution either.

replies: text: What do you mean, List of Historians is not well located?  We need to do something about the List of Scientists and Philosophers, but until modern times scientists and philosophers had much in common.  I'd sooner combine historians with anthropologists and sociologists. - RachelBrown 22:14, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Can this list maybe be pruned to include historians that have published work that has to do with Judaism? It seems the best way to go -- for I don't see why a Jewish historian of Rome should be included in this list when he can just be included in his own country's list.

replies: text: Firstly, what's the harm of having all the Jewish ones gathered together (unless you're totally opposed to the principle of lists of Jews)?  Secondly, there might be (I'm not saying there is) some pattern that emerges when we compare Jewish historians across countries with each other or with other historians.  If we don't assemble the raw material to investigate, we'll never know! - RachelBrown 14:43, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: What's the point of having all the "Jewish ones" gathered together, and what definition will you use? Also, what kind of "pattern" might emerge? SlimVirgin (talk) 19:05, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Concerning necessity of this list

message: If I created stubs for the red links and make a category moving all these names into LCategory:Jewish historians would the deletion or another use of this list be supported? Antidote 20:32, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Possible Compromise

message: Is the Salomon Baron same with Salo Wittmayer Baron (:ja:サロー・ウィットメイア・バロン)? --210.128.247.147 07:55, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. Salomon Baron redirects to Salo Wittmayer Baron. -- -- -- 20:16, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Baron 

message: I am adding several names from the following source:
Encyclopaedia Judaica (CD version); article Historians.  The names are in a list headed Prominent Jewish General Historians.
Thus a reputable source confirms that all these people are
# Jewish
# historians
# prominent (hence notable)

thread_title:  Encyclopaedia Judaica list 

message: Most of all of the red linked names on this list should be removed, as they are nothing more than fluff (to make the list look more impressive) or only minor historians. Only MAJOR historians and those notable enough to have a Wikipedia article should be included, not every single obscure Jewish history professor/academic found in college or university history departments.  --WassermannNYC 04:09, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Please see above - many of the red links come from the list of prominent Jewish historians given in the Encyclopaedia Judaica.  We thus have a reliable source that they are prominent historians.  What evidence is there to the contrary?--20.138.246.89 10:25, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  This Page Needs MAJOR Pruning 

message: I have commented out the unreferenced names here using the html comment feature (). These need to have sources for each name listed and should not really be re-added (uncommented) until the source can be provided. Yes, I know some of these are "DUH"s, but we need to be strict when dealing with sources. Mahalo. --Ali'i 19:01, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  References needed 

message: What's up with all the references that point to "EJL"? Is this Encyclopedia Judaica? If so, we should be clearer. 128.148.231.12 (talk) 14:12, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Refs to "EJL"?
