Talk:Jewdas

This was put at afd and closed with a merge verdict last year. I don't see much to merge so I basically just redirected it to this article. If anyone who wants to add more content from the former article, the link is above.Prezbo (talk) 07:01, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

I'm disappointed in the irrational reverts on this article. The RT one was just highlighting the humour used by Jewdas, which the British media curiously choose to ignore. But, fine, you can remove that if you have something against RT. My final change did not include the RT reference, but instead had citations from the Independent, the Sun and the Metro, all valid sources. The edit in the "History" is partly to correct poor sentence construction, with regards to the sentence starting with "That...". I'm merely pointing where that reference to "sewage" is coming from. Since that "sewage" comment is taken out of context, then surely it's appropriate to put where it came from? Or do we only allow one side of the story in Wikipedia? The third sentence is from a British Jewish comedian, in defence of Jewdas, after criticism from Lansman and other British Jews. Is Baddiel the wrong type of Jew, for coming to the defence of the wrong type of Jews? I must say, I find this right-wing Jewish censorship of left-wing Jews deeply alarming. Are you saying that members of Jewdas are not allowed to post from articles about Jewdas? Or are only right-wing interpretations of Jewdas only allowed on Wikipedia? I await your responses....Mikesiva (talk) 06:27, 12 May 2018 (UTC)mikesivaMikesiva (talk) 06:27, 12 May 2018 (UTC)


 * User:Mikesiva, I have reverted your addition. Please read Identifying reliable sources. There are a number of Wikipedia policy documents which you should read to understand how this project works, but WP:IRS is the most immediately applicable. Philip Cross (talk) 07:03, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

Well, Philip, we've had exhaustive discussions about Baddiel's defence, and the link to the Sun article, why they were deleted, and why I was banned for posted those links. Do you lot now accept that you were wrong to ban me, and that there's nothing wrong with those two links? Mikesiva (talk) 17:34, 14 May 2018 (UTC)MikesivaMikesiva (talk) 17:34, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * According to your talk page you were banned for edit warring. I suggest next time you use this talk page to discuss rather than edit warring. Absolutelypuremilk (talk) 07:41, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

JCpower100
Remove assertion that "In 2008, the group was listed #67 on "The JC Power 100", the Jewish Chronicle's annual ranking of the 100 most influential British Jews." Dead link. I cannot find it in search of Jewish Chroicle webiste. And assertion that an organization was on a list of the 100 most influential persons certainly reads like satire.E.M.Gregory (talk) 00:35, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

The Jewish Chronicle editorial ' In praise of Jewdas'
I can't find any evidence of The Jewish Chronicle's editorial "In praise of Jewdas" referred to in the article. Online searches for the phrase lead to content apparently based on the WP page, and searching for it on the paper's own website finds no results at all. JezGrove (talk) 21:40, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I checked as well and couldn't find anything.Jonpatterns (talk) 14:33, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Any thoughts?
I'd like to put something from this piece, below, into the article: but I'm not quite sure how to briefly articulate what I want to say. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/apr/03/jeremy-corbyn-passover-jewdas-good-news

Maybe something along the lines of "For their part, Jewdas professed their pleasure in having Corbyn as a guest and described any inference that they are not "real" Jews as offensive and antisemitic".

I also want to put something in about https://babelsblessing.org/. Any thoughts? --DSQ (talk) 22:34, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
