Talk:1917 Jaffa deportation

Article suffers from POV, incomplete information
There are a number of issues with this article. I would try to correct them, but (a) I am not sure even where to start, and (b) it is grading time. The Title is incorrect: this should be titled 1917 Evacuation of Palestinian cities. It is not just Jaffa, and despite the first paragraph, not about just Jews. This is shown by the evacuation of Gaza City. This Haaretz article (https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-the-1917-expulsion-of-tel-avivs-jews-seen-through-turkish-eyes-1.5477699) also shows that the cities were evacuated due to British attacks.Mcdruid (talk) 01:40, 17 December 2021 (UTC)


 * You are quite right. I think this article should be moved to "1917 evacuation of Gaza and Jaffa", or something like your title. Moving it isn't easy and will be opposed by some who like to have it presented as a primarily anti-Jewish event. Zerotalk 05:56, 17 December 2021 (UTC)


 * I agree also, subject to identifying a good scholarly source to base the corrected scope around. A similar thing happened at 1956–57 exodus and expulsions from Egypt – it was originally written from the perspective of Jewish history, and then shifted into its fuller context.

 * The article also needs translated titles and/or links adding to the purely Hebrew citations. Iskandar323 (talk) 15:18, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
