Talk:Mordechai Tsanin

Regarding your insertion of, it seems to me that numerous items in the body of this article support Tsanin's status as "a leading figure in Israeli Yiddish culture". To name just one, being the long-time editor-in-chief of the biggest Yiddish-language newspaper would by itself qualify Tsanin as a "leading" figure.

Replacing my "Israel Labor Party" with "Mapai" would seem to make matters less, not more, clear to an English-speaking audience. Mapai, after all, is the Hebrew acronym for "Labor Party of the Land of Israel". I do notice that the Wikipedia page for Mapai calls it the "Workers' Party", but the Hebrew word "poalei" is legitimately either "workers" or "labor". In any event, the subtleties that differentiate the meaning of "mifleget poalei..." from "mifleget ha'avodah" in Hebrew, together with the fact that "mifleget ha'avodah" was little more than a rebranding of Mapai, suggest to me that in English we can safely call both of them the "Labor Party" -- to no harm, and to some benefit to our English-speaking audience.
