Thanks. I edit in the Hebrew Wiki for 5 years, and I've written hundreds of articles, so I know the procedures. Thanks for the reception. :) אהוד אמיר (talk) 06:44, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ghetto uprisings

Hi אהוד אמיר,
I have seen your involvment on Yad Vashem.
I wish to call your attention about a wiki article.
The english article may be read using this link : < Ghetto uprising >

I am very suprised to see that, there is only a few language's links (interwiki).
Even, there is no such a page in Hebrew neither in Yiddish nor in German !

Can you help to contact someones who will be able to start a page about that subject and do the connection with those idioms ?

I should be able to start a page on the Portuguese wikipedia, and may be a google translation for the German one.

Best regards,

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Thanks for the notice. I'm much more involved in the Hebrew Wiki, and my poor contributions in the English Wiki don't justify entrusting me with such a privilege... Thanks anyway. I'll go through the list and see what I can do. Ehud Amir (talk) 08:05, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Eastern Europe town

Hi, I saw you work in Yad Vashem and was wondering if you could help regarding the name of a town that I came across. In Hebrew it is "סום." Do you recognize it? All I could find was Somme, but I was looking for a town in Eastern Europe by that name.--Geewhiz (talk) 09:14, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a little bit more accurate location? Spelling? Info about the Context? I'll ask the The International Institute for Holocaust Research or the archives at Yad Vashem. (You can apply to them directly, but I'll apply to them anyway.) Ehud Amir (talk) 09:45, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A Zionist orator named Ben-Zion Alfes (1850-1940) went there to give a lecture about Herzl.--Geewhiz (talk) 11:04, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may want to consider applying to the Central Zionist Archives, the National Library or Beit Hatfutsot. I wish you succeed. Ehud Amir (talk) 11:23, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Shmuel Krakowski

I've expanded it with Polish/English sources. Perhaps Hebrew sources will be helpful to expand the second (Israeli) stage of his life? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:25, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's a great idea, but since English isn't my mother tongue, I'm afraid my writing won't meet the Wikipedia lingual standards in that language. However, here is a good source about Krakowski, by Yad Vashem International Institute for Holocaust Studies, and I believe it's possible to summarize its content. I don't trust my English for that task. Thank you for the encouragement! Ehud Amir (talk) 11:19, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your English level seems much better than that of many other users here. I think you should be bold and write more on English Wikipedia, it is an international project and perfect English skills are not required :) --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:03, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll give it a try. If my edit is reverted, don't say I didn't warn you.

Ehud Amir (talk) 09:07, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good, that was much needed to restore the balance between his early and late life. I did some c/e. In the future, I encourage you do add WP:INLINE CITATIONS while you are editing. With Visual Editor, it's just few seconds. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:33, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Explaining my revert

Hi. This wasn't an actual full revert, despite what the edit summary says. I simply combined the two positions he holds as consul and Yad Vashem director into a single sentence. I hope you don't mind. Thanks.--Halo N.Y. (talk) 03:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Halo N.Y., Thank you for your edit. However, now it reads as if Dani Dayan is currently both an entrepreneur and Consul General of Israel in New York since August 2016, but it's wrong. Since Dayan was nominated to the office of Yad Vashem chairman, he is no longer entrepreneur and Consul. Can you please edit it in a way that would reflect that? Thank you.
