Political conspiracy background

[edit]

***** Not government, but "community" -

Towards the end of the 18th century, following the Partitions of Poland, the Russian Empire inherited the world's largest Jewish population. The Jews lived in shtetls in the West of the Empire, in the Pale of Settlement and until the 1840s, local Jewish affairs were organized through the "Kahal", a semi-autonomous Jewish local community, for purposes of taxation, conscription....... 192.116.64.235 (talk) 10:01, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling

[edit]

requesting an edit:

The first word of the original translation section, "программа" is spelled incorrectly due to a missing "м" 87.18.43.205 (talk) 20:12, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, thanks. Zerotalk 00:53, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect change

[edit]

To editor Ogress: You created "Cesare G. De Michelis argues that it was manufactured in the months after the First Zionist Congress in September 1902" by modifying existing text. The First Zionist Congress was in 1897, not 1902, moreover De Michelis does not argue that. Per the citation at the end of the sentence, De Michelis is referring to a different "Pan-Russian Zionist Congress" held in that month. Though it is true that some other authors propose the document was written soon after the First Zionist Congress, that belongs to the theory that it was written in France, a theory now largely discredited. De Michelis and others who specialise on it believe it is a Russian production that contains internal evidence it was written no earlier than 1901. Falk's book claims that it was a production of the Russian Orthodox Church and published first in 1905, the first of which is a fringe claim and the second is objectively wrong. Falk also bizarrely claims that the work he says was published in 1905 was one of the causes of the Kishinev pogrom that happened in 1903! We should discard that book as a source. Bronner's book also has glaring errors, see a previous talk section for examples. Zerotalk 06:56, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To editor Zero0000: Ok! Make sure you edit the First Zionist Congress page; that is where I got the cites from! They're even in the intro there. Ogress 13:19, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Dewey decimal actually 109?

[edit]

It seems like a troll edit based off the expelled from 109 countries inside joke thing. If it isn’t a coincidence, could we get a footnote? Edit: also could be a pun on “Jewy” “Jewry” “Jew-y” 2A00:23C6:D603:8001:1425:6F4:83C:618F (talk) 17:27, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
