All I see is the tutorials you've done. You're missing Sandbox content, and a message on a classmate's page. Re-read Wiki 1 instructions.--Chapmansh (talk) 05:35, 23 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In Regards to Editing the Article on Salonika Jews.

[edit]

For my edit what I intend to do is edit the Salonika Jews article on this site. Because of the length of the entire article, I will be focusing on the section titled Modern Times. The source I will be using to supplement my edit will be the book Greece - A Jewish History by author K. E. Fleming. The book itself is a comprehensive work into the history of Salonikan Jews over several centuries, especially leading into World War II. Fleming is one of the premier experts in this field of Jewish Studies. Although the section touches on the diversity of the city as an economic hub, it does not cover the unique rabbinical culture that developed in the city. One of the these pieces of information that I intend to add is how the Salonikan rabbis permitted Teshuvah, or returning to Judaism, for conversos. These were Jews living in the Iberian Peninsula that converted to Christianity in order to be accepted. This contributed to Salonikas unique status as an economic hub that subsequently aided in its industrialization. If anyone would like to comment on these changes, please let me know on this Talk Page or on my own Talk Page. Barsegh1997 (talk) 19:39, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
