Talk:Avrohom Bornsztain

Borenstein or Bornsztajn?
Where on earth did the spelling Borenstein come from? His name was Avrohom Bornsztajn. --Redaktor (talk) 23:49, 10 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Redaktor, I see that you are a "buki" in Hebrew (and Polish) pronunciation and spelling. I don't agree, however, that we should use such obscure spellings as "Bornsztajn" when most Jewish publications use the simpler and easier (for English speakers) to read, "Borenstein" YU Torah Online, Jewish Press, JewishLaw.com, Feldheim Publishers, JewishGen.org. I also question your spelling of "Avrohom" vs. "Avraham" and "Chidushei HoRim" vs. "HaRim," which is how I've always seen it spelled and which is how it (Avraham) is spelled on many other Wikipedia pages. Could you direct me to a Wikipedia policy page or consensus discussion which backs up your spelling choices? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 15:03, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Merge Abraham Bornstein article

 * Agree with the idea of merging Abraham Bornstein into this article. After the discussion with Redaktor, above, I worked much more on this article, and think that any stray details from the shorter, Abraham Bornstein article should be merged into this one.

 * I certainly Agree to this merger. The Abraham Bornstein article has little if anything that is not already in this article, and can probably be turned into a redirect. Items in the shorter article include a reference to a rabbinate position in Krośniewice, something not in this article (and something that should be sourced before addition), as well as a slight date conflicts, as well as the links section.
 * Agree The Abraham Bornstein article seems to have been written in ignorance of this article and, in any case, contains only minimal content. Bornsztain's position in Krośniewice (Krushnevitz)is indeed noted in this article. --Redaktor (talk) 23:28, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Of course, merge. no brainer. Manitobamountie (talk) 15:26, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Burial Place
I think there's a grave in the Lodz cemetary down the second row on the left when you walk in that is attributed to him — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.98.153.239 (talk) 16:54, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
