Talk:Hershel of Ostropol

Not stub class
The article should not be classified as a stub because it covers all that's known about the character. No official biography has been written about him, and little information is available beyond mythological accounts of his exploits. Jimmy1988 (talk) 13:52, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Hershele Ostropoler → Hershel of Ostropol – This is the name by which he is known in English. (Google Books has about three times as many results for "Hershel of Ostropol" as for "Hershele Ostropoler".) — the Man in Question (in question)  19:57, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
 * On the face of it support Ostropoler isn't a surname here for this character but a geonym. In ictu oculi (talk) 01:18, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

Merge suggestion from Jewish humor
Joyous! | Talk 18:53, 2 March 2023 (UTC) There is basically zero overlap of this article and section Jewish humor. The content of the section must be merged here and the section itself rewritten according to the guideline WP:Summary style. Loew Galitz (talk) 23:09, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose: summary form isn't needed here, because the other article develops just one aspect of Hershel of Ostropol's life/work. Feel free to move material about as you like; that doesn't need a merge proposal. Klbrain (talk) 18:33, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
