Talk:Joseph Karo

Untitled
The Nicopolis he stayed was on the Danube, in present-day Bulgaria

Yoseph Caro was not an exclusive Talmudist, he did use Qabbala as a source of law, for example his ruling on tephillin on hol-hammo'edh.87.8.134.88 (talk) 17:47, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Palestinian rabbi
I intend to add he was a Palestinian rabbi to the lead, as the category has been removed by Debresser. Chesdovi (talk) 10:56, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Joseph ben Ephraim Karo → Joseph Karo – Common name. The patronymic "ben Ephraim" is not part of the common name. Debresser (talk) 10:16, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, probably Joseph Karo, which already redirects here. He does seem to be commonly referred to as "ben Ephraim", but seldom in titles: Rabi Joseph Karo at OU.org, Joseph Karo at Jewish Virtual Library, Yosef Caro at Chabad.org. It also wins hands-on at ngram No such user (talk) 14:37, 22 May 2017 (UTC)

Caro or Karo Suggestion
I would like the article to pick the best spelling of Yosef Karo's name, and use that spelling throughout the article. Since the article is already called Joseph Karo, I proposed to change all the occurrences of the last name in the article to that form. Does anyone disagree? If so ping me. Otherwise I'll take care of it in a few days. --DaringDonna (talk) 19:32, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
