Talk:Sarona (colony)

Fair use rationale for Image:Sarona Garden.jpg
Image:Sarona Garden.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Wasn´t it a Zionist ethnic cleansing?

Merge suggestion
I believe this article should be merged with HaKirya, because they talk about the exact same place, and in fact this article presents some modern-day information that is more relevant to HaKirya. At the same time, HaKirya is an article that can't be completed because the majority of its history has to do with Sarona. —Ynhockey (Talk) 10:48, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure these articles should be merged, even if the histories overlap. Material about Sarona after the establishment of the state should probably be moved to Hakirya. --Geewhiz (talk) 07:43, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Tags
I have re-added the tags in the article. Firstly, indeed most facts are unsourced, therefore the article requires better sourcing. If anyone is interested, I have a book about Sarona which I have no time to read or use, but can scan parts for the use of other Wikipedians. Also, the HaKirya section is not wikified, and this should be addressed before removing the tag. —Ynhockey (Talk) 00:12, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Sarona (colony)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Sarona (colony)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "haaretz.com": From Israel:  From Templers (religious believers): Adi Schwartz, The nine lives of the Lorenz Cafe, Haaretz, January 20, 2008. 

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 00:37, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Hebrew origin of the name
In Hebrew Wikipedia it is written that the name Sarona was given because the colony has been in the biblical geographical region named in Hebrew Sharon, and in German apparently Saron. I'm suggesting that this information will be added to the value here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yoelyar (talk • contribs) 09:43, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Gotthilf (Guthelf) Wagner
An anon added some heresay from here that Wagner had tortured Jewish children in Auschwitz or Buchenwald. Such stories abound but their truth is another matter. I can prove that Wagner was in Palestine in May 1942, June 1942, May 1943, March 1944, March 1945 and May 1945. Is there evidence he was in Europe at all during WWII? He was a Nazi party member but I can't find anything about him having sufficient credentials to visit a death camp. This JTA report says he was "interned by the Palestine Government during the war". Most likely this is a story invented after his assassination. Zerotalk 04:42, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
