thread_title: Wilfrid Israel birthplace

message: An editor moved the article to the title Hazorea. The rationale was that this is what the locality calls itself in English and that the apostrophe is misplaced. Neither seems to be correct because:
# There is no indication that this is what they call themselves, other than the domain name, which is case-insensitive and can't contain apostrophes in any case.
# The apostrophe isn't there to indicate the Ayin, but to separate between two vowels, stemming from the pronunciation of the word. While we haven't had a discussion about this rule for years, I believe most editors still support having apostrophes to separate vowels, because it makes it infinitely easier to read and understand for non-Hebrew speakers.

compare with the English text in the kibbutz website  http://www.hazorea.org.il/objDoc.asp?PID=218811&OID=294163&DivID=1&docMode=print
e.g. It also misses many historic details. ie. Doesnt mention that the initial land was purchased. Also misses the role of Martin Buber in the German youth movement Werkleute, but includes that Chomsky visited in summer of 1953... Delete Chomsky. That's already noted in the Chomsky entry.

Talk:Caledonian and Dumbartonshire Junction Railway

message: Stewart 22:28, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The name of the railway included "Dumbartonshire" with an "M", and this article title is incorrect. The county is spelt with an "N" in more recent times, but that's not the point: the railway spelt its name with an M.
This is explained in Casserley page 172, and all the early Parliamentary and trade articles (in Google Books for example) correctly use the M.
Not sure how to handle this, as hundreds (yes hundreds) of Wikipedia articles link to this page under the N title. Even railways in the far north of Scotland link to it, I don't know why. But renaming the article would involve a massive number of edits. Maybe just a redirect.Afterbrunel (talk) 05:29, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Only those links which are unpiped or where the visible part of the link has the "Dunbartonshire" spelling need altering. --Redrose64 (talk) 05:31, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name of the railway 

message: Leaving aside the incorrect title of the railway, this article has some errors and does not portray the history of the company in a grown-up way. I don't like writing "dubious" in the face of the article, but it wasn't "also known as Dumbarton & Balloch Joint Railway" -- that came much later. The idea that the arrival of the turntable was a major event in the history seems strange. I propose to write a better article under the proper company name and convert this page into a redirect.

message: I believe there is some confusion here - if you look at any actual coordinates to Jordan and Israel, you can see that Mount Sodom is on the right side of the Dead Sea, which would place it in Jordan. Unless anyway can prove that I'm somehow reading this wrong (and somehow I went into Israel without knowing it to hike up Mount Sodom, for that matter) I am changing all references of the location of this mountain from Israel to Jordan. For example, put the provided coordinates (31° 25′ 54″ N, 35° 33′ 46″ E) in this wikipedia article in Google Earth and see what comes back: the result is in Jordan as well.

On the other hand, the geographical features of the rock are part of Mount Sodom which can be covered here. —Ynhockey (Talk) 22:55, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

text: And the case is the same as it is elseweher. WP:LEAD specifies that notable controversies be included in the lead of the article.

What exactly is the case for exclusion? nableezy - 16:04, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

text: The sources that you link to do not establish that the discussion regarding settlement legality is pertinent and significant to the Kedumim article. The article about Daniella Weiss mentions where she lives,  Freedman's article relates to settlements in general, and Goldenberg obliquely mentions that the protesters were "bussed to two holding pens at Ofer, an Israeli army base, and Kedumim, an illegal Jewish settlement." The articles do not discuss a legality dispute centring on this place or support your assertion that "that this colony was illegally established on occupied territory is a notable controversy".

text: The point is that reliable sources whenever mentioning this settlement include that it is illegal. How you can say that because the mere mention of a place causes a reliable source to include that it is illegal under international law somehow means that the very article about the place shouldnt include it is beyond me. nableezy - 23:27, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

On 9 January 1948, about 200 Arabs crossed the Syrian border and attacked the kibbutz in reprisal for the Haganah attack on the nearby Arab village of al-Khisas a few weeks before."  
Do you have any sources for this statement.  my understanding was that Kfar Szold was chosen ahead of time by general kaukji of the arab army of liberation as the first attack point in the attempt to have a quick victory over an israeli kibbutz on his way to destroy the jewish state.

It is up to others to decide if they want to keep a note like "There is a marzipan museum in Kfar Tavor," but it is not clear to me if this is a very "special" thing.
