Comments:

  • It's a tiny article and doesn't adequately describe such a famous figure
  • A transitional figure uniting the US and Israeli Haredi community. Most sought after for his counsel, approbations and speeches. We need to find a reliable source on the number of arba kanfos he actually wears. JFW | T@lk 19:44, 14 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • The author of the Tzitz Eliezer and a major Posek of our times. If I'm not mistaken he's still alive. I found this important article only yesterday; it had laid dormant since September 05 and requires significant overhaul -- Nesher
He is still alive, Baruch HaShem. --רח"ק | Talk 23:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's great, Rachak. Now you can get on the phone to him and get his biographical details....Havdala 05:01, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're probably thinking about The Nesivos who is his great-grandson. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 19:36, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, I'm thinking of the Divrei Chaim. And I took a look and I can't find any proof that the Nesivos is the great-grandson of the Chacham Tzvi, the article makes no mention of how he is related. Yossiea 19:48, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
He's a direct male descendant, look at the Sha'ar to any of his seforim. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 20:58, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I didn't see him listed where I was looking. Yossiea 21:02, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And for once, Artscroll did a decent job, IIRC. Ayinyud 17:54, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Artscroll writes Elyah- all others online use Elya- more google hits for the latter, plus that should be how its spelled, methinks.JJ211219 21:48, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
