Racist comment?

It was a joke. Teimanim were/are famous for having multiple wives. --Daniel575 14:49, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know it was a joke, I even chuckeled after I read it, but it is still racist and we don't want to offend our Yemenite readers. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 14:50, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just an FYI regarding ORCOTW

Your oppose vote is not necessary, only support votes are counted. Yossiea 18:04, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know, I'm just trying to show my opposition. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 19:33, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A WikiProject Proposal...

I noticed that you were a part of the now inactive WikiProject covering orthodox Judaism. I'm wondering if you'd be interested in a new project I'm thinking over that would specifically expand wikipedia's information on mitzvot in detail. What I'm thinking over is that each mitzvah holds enough depth to be an article on its own, and as I just finished writing an article on viddui I noticed that the amount of information on fundamental concepts of Judaism is sorely lacking (as a test I tried to find information on topics such as shacharit and was very dissapointed). If you'd be interested please feel free to leave me a message! תזכו למצוות!--RShnike 01:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that wikiProject is dead. I suggest you go over and post your idea on the Talk page of the project and we'll all see what we can do. The problem with adding all the Mitzvos is that alot of it is contrvoersial in halacha l'maysa, and alot of the mitzvos are very specific and not encyclopedic. But I still think its a good idea, see what other people think. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 03:43, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:JewishStarofJealousy.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:JewishStarofJealousy.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 05:05, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

So what? When is will be created then it will already be linked to the English one. Perhaps this way after we finish working on this en article, those in wiki he will decide to make an he for him ZT"L and can use our en as a base for doing so. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 22:14, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please look here

Modern attempts to revive the Sanhedrin and the talk page there. A guy named User:Historian2 is making quite some trouble. Please throw your voice in as well. --Daniel575 08:48, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yossiea is also making trouble now, just after Historian and I had talked things out. Please throw your voice in also. --Daniel575 | (talk) 18:38, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rachak, before you get involved and throw stuff around, read Wikipolicy. Remember, Wiki is an encyclopedia, not a web forum. As such, wiki requires verifiable facts and not just hearsay. Yossiea 12:53, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brisker template

I'm going to work on it in a few days, since I'm leaving for RBS in a few hours for shabbos and on yom rishon I'm busy. So it'll only be in 2 days. Thanks the offer! --Daniel575 | (talk) 10:12, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ok. I stayed in RBS last summer, my uncle lives there. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 14:46, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My contributions on the collaboration page

None of the Rabbis that I added had large articles. They were all relatively short.

Israel bilateral relations

Hi, I could use some support in opposing merging Israel-Venezuela relations into (nothingness) Foreign policy of Hugo Chávez. Anything you can add to Israel-Venezuela relations, Israel-New Zealand relations, and Israel-Japan relations would be very appreciated. Respectfully, Republitarian 17:46, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your home pages

Was curious, but none of your home pages seem to work from these links.

World Jewry

According to the Jews by country list (a fine piece of work in its own right), most articles follow a non grammatical thread such as 'British Jews', 'American Jews' etc. Due to the bad grammar, I propose World Jewry be adopted to replace it as the category for Jewish Population. The World Jewish Population Survey of 2002 (cited here) talks of "world Jewry", so we can't be too far wrong when using that term in reference to this issue; Jewish Population. In fact it comes up in nearly every survey on Jewish Population. Google it. Chavatshimshon 23:16, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please take your stand on the matter. Wikipedia:Categories for deletion.

Aramaic Wiktionary

Seeing your knowledge in Aramaic, I believe that you may be interested in something that has been recently proposed on Meta. If you'd like to help us get the Aramaic Wiktionary established, please add your name to the "Users interested in forming an editing community" section, and voice your support in the section labeled "Arguments in favour".

Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 21:44, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
