23 seafarers boat → Operation Boatswain –. Support "23 seafarers boat" just doesn't mean anything. The military operation this all refers to was Operation Boatswain. Beastiepaws (talk) 09:25, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
 * What are you talking about ?..... in israel they are very famous and immortalized in many streets and lots of places. פארוק (talk) 21:28, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I realise they're famous. They have their own memorial at Mt. Herzl (which I tried to tidy up, incidentally).  This is just the wrong name in English.  The article should have the English name of the military operation, Operation Boatswain.  If you search for "Operation Boatswain", you can find information about this significant Palmach operation with Google.  If you search for "23 seafarers boat", you don't really find anything.  The 23 are also known in English as 'the 23 who went down at sea', but this article seems to be mainly about the operation, not the 23 per se.  Beastiepaws (talk) 22:29, 16 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep this in Hebrew =>> כ"ג יורדי הסירה <<== very clearly name in israel. if you looking in this name you find a lot of information in hebrew. פארוק (talk) 23:18, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter what it's known as in Hebrew. This is English Wikipedia, so we use English names. Beastiepaws (talk) 23:51, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Google search for "Operation Boatswain" Beastiepaws (talk) 00:11, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * This article does not tied to the Memorial at Mount Herzl !. This should be a separate article as a chapter in Israel's history !. maybe we should change the name of the article and expand more details. פארוק (talk) 07:12, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * What? Nobody said it was tied to Mount Herzl. I was just agreeing with you about the operation being well-known. This is only a request for a name change. I don't understand why you're getting so worked up over it. Beastiepaws (talk) 07:30, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * becouse i request to not delet this when i make this article in the first time. פארוק (talk) 08:08, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Look, you've lost me. I'm not asking to delete the article.  I'm asking to rename it.  I can't make this any simpler. Beastiepaws (talk) 08:41, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Allright. פארוק (talk) 08:55, 17 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Support. No one calls it "23 seafarers boat" on GBooks. I think this phrase is just auto-translate nonsense. It's "Operation Boatswain" here and here. Israeli elite units since 1948 calls them "the 23". Kauffner (talk) 06:31, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Replace name
I am really glad that you replace the name of this article. but how to translate to English ==> כ"ג יורדי הסירה - Twenty-three seafarers boat ? ... פארוק (talk) 19:21, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Sam Katz translates the phrase as "the 23" above. Literally, it's something like "23 people on a boat." Kauffner (talk) 14:41, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

Tel Aviv Memorial
