Hebrew wikipedia
How about writing articles about David Klein and Aba Houshi for the Hebrew wikipedia? --Woggly 16:03, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Israel Law links
I added the links to the specific pages of the Law translations - why just one link to the header? The title of the site is not specific enough. The translated laws are commercial laws and not just insurance laws. I beleave the deep links are better.
 * Wikipedia is not a link directory. Having that many links to the same site is not useful: People who want to find information about commercial law elsewhere can find it with that single link, it's not like the information is hidden on that site. If you wanted to you could put a brief list of the topics mentioned on the site after it, ie "Isreal Insurance law, a site with information on Isreali commercial, tort and insurance law". By the way, you can sign your name and the date by typing ~ .  --fvw *  10:59, 2004 Dec 20 (UTC)

Six million
At WikiProject Numbers we are drafting guidelines for what kind of information we want to include in articles about numbers. The guideline for numbers of statistics is that the number must either be axiomatic to statistics (i.e, 1, 2, &pi;) or be a statistic that has gained historical or mythical significance.

Would you say that the number six million has historical significance in Israel? If so, could you provide references to back this up, (i.e., a book titled something like Requiem for the Six Million?) PrimeFan 22:23, 22 Dec 2004 (UTC)


 * I wasn't asked, but I'm sticking my nose in anyway. I'd say absolutely, the number six million has near-mythological significance to Israeli and other Jews. How's this for a book title: The Seventh Million by Tom Segev, a book about the aftereffects of the holocaust. Look it up if you like. --Woggly 07:06, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)


 * Thanks - feel free to stick your nose anytime. I changed the article accordingly Deror

Hi Deror avi: Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed your contributions and they have been excellent. I have had to Wikify some of them, but it's been my pleasure. Please fill in some information about yourself or your interests or whatever you like on your User:Deror avi page, it would be nice. Once again welcome and enjoy your self!

Image source?
Hi, I noticed your image Eshkoltower.jpg, and was wondering where it came from. There's a similar image on the Hebrew Wikipedia, and I was wondering if you knew its origin, or licensing details. (Or, if you took it, if you have a bigger version.) Thanks! grendel|khan 21:18, 2005 Apr 21 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:CDV109.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:CDV109.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

About Dhivehi Encyclopedia
Hi, Deror I would be very happy if you can help (guide) us in upgrading Dhivehi Wikipedia. Now the problem is we want to change the logo to translated logo. How to do that and to change titles like Main Page to (މައި ޞަފްޙާ), Community Portal to (މުޖުތަމައުގެ ނެރު) and etc. And Hebrew is the only language which is written like us, we also wright from right to left like Hebrew but not like persian which combines letters.

The images
You asked "what was wrong" in your edit summary when you removed the "no source" tag from a couple of your images. I though the boilplate message I dropped here would have explained it, but anyway: The images have no source info. You need to say where the images came from, or if you made them yourself you need to explisitly say so. Additionaly if you did not make them yourself you need to carefully explain why you say that the copyright holder have released all rights to the images as well (if they are self made we can just take your word for it, but you need to first explain that they are in fact self made first). Thanks. --Sherool (talk) 09:11, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
 * As specifically written there - the images were taken by a friend of mine - named Gabi, the dates are there, and he allowed usage of the pictures in all events (according to the license specified there). Deror 09:15, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay. It would help if you explained that in a little bit more detail on the actual image pages though (you know something like "This image was taken by by Gabi, a friend of User:Deror avi, at on and he/she has released all rights to the image" or something like that, just so it's spelled out unmistakedly). Just a (first?) name and a year is very little to go on to verify that the images are free. Considering how many outright copyright violations there are in that category, images with very little information where they came from and why they are lavbeled as free use tends to be looked at with some suspicion. Better to not leave any room for doubht as to the status of images. Thanks. --Sherool (talk) 16:13, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
 * sorry for the misunderstanding - I thought the license info was sufficient. Deror 21:11, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Israeli Sea Corps
Hello. A motto (מוטו) is a short phrase (i.e. הטובים לטיס), and while I don't doubt the usage of that passage in the ISC, by definition, it cannot be the "motto." My other corrections that you reverted: Maj-Gen. should always be wikified as Aluf (the other Aluf derivative ranks, except the Ramatkal, should be denoted in English); the Sea Corps is the Sea arm (זרוע), not a branch (אגף), as the author of חיל הים הישראלי, youv'e written so yourself; I forgot to note why I've hidden the image links - I will be uploading them in the next day or 2 into the article, so they are for my reference; the maps of Israel is not really topical, so I removed it. Hope all of that makes sense. בברכה, El_C 00:34, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * מוטו הוא לא בהכרח קצר, ולמיטב ידיעתי והבנתי זה המוטו (אם תשים לב, מרבית המוטואים בעולם הם דווקא באורך כזה) - לגבי ההמשך לא שמתי לב ששיחזתי, כנראה בשל השעה המאוחרת. מצטער. Deror 06:48, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm. I think you are confused, a motto is a "סיסמא/קו מנחה". I'm surprised you would think the ISC would be different than any other IDF unit in that regard. At any rate, I found a source, so I trust that settles the question. בברכה, El_C 08:42, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, and "כשהגלים מתחזקים החזקים מתגלים", is the motto from that passage. But at the event, I believe it is the motto of שייטת 13. El_C 09:03, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * אם כבר זה המוטו של שייטת שלוש ולא של חיל הים. צריך אסמכתא לכך שזה מוטו רשמי של כל החייל. not good enough. Deror 10:47, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Likewise for S-13. It dosen't matter, my main point was about the length of the passage (i.e. it not being the motto itself). El_C 22:00, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Re: Julis

 * It's not a template, which means changes in a similar template (such as Infobox Israel municipality) will not affect this table
 * There is already a template for Israeli municipalities, Template:Infobox Israel municipality
 * It's taken from the Hebrew Wikipedia, which does not take into account some standards set forth by the English Wikipedia
 * It has outdated information, which isn't really important anyway (percentage of matriculation graduates? Who cares? It can be included under Education in the text of the article)
 * Etc.

Re: masonic symbols
so there is no symbol on top? is that what you're saying? why is that picture there then?
 * I took the picture - it is a blure - no window there. The piramod is an imitation of the Tomb of Zecharia - as the rest of the building is suppose to be an imitiatio of the Court of the Sanhedrin in the second temple - see the hebrew version of this article for a list of the real simbolizm of the building (and there is a lot - it is based on many verses of the bible all of them dealing with justice).

Your opinion is sought
Hi. I recently created Operation Summer Rains suboperations. My opponents, however, do not see appear to see the relation between these haveing been undertaken within the framework of Operation Summer Rains. On Talk:Operation Autumn Clouds, I brought a source whose excerpt I translated, which reads in the original:

"”ענני סתיו', הוא עוד פרק במבצע ' גשמי קיץ' שהחל בחודש יוני, לאחר חטיפת גלעד שליט. בצפון הרצועה קדמו לו המבצעים ' אלוני הבשן', ' היזון חוזר', ' ציון סופי', ' עמודי שמשון', ' גן נעול' ו' ארבעת המינים'. במקביל, ובמסגרת ' גשמי קיץ', התקיימו בדרום הרצועה, ובפרט באזור ציר פילדלפי, המבצעים ' שליט דרומי', ' קו האופק', ' איש הגשם' ו' פרי סחוט'."

Still, this does not appear to be enough. They claim that a similar list on the Hebrew Wikipedia as invalid for being unsourced. It reads:

מבצע גשמי קיץ מורכב ממספר מבצעי משנה:
 * מבצע "שליט דרומי" - פעילות צה"ל בדרום רצועת עזה, שהחלה ב-28 ביוני, 2006.
 * מבצע "אלוני הבשן" - פעילות צה"ל בצפון רצועת עזה, שהחלה ב-6 ביולי.
 * מבצע "היזון חוזר" - פעילות צה"ל במרכז רצועת עזה, שהחלה ב-12 ביולי.
 * מבצע "ציון סופי" - פעילות צה"ל בצפון רצועת עזה, שהחלה ב-16 ביולי והסתיימה ב-18 ביולי.
 * מבצע "עמודי שמשון" - פעילות צה"ל בשכונת סעג'יה בעזה, שהחלה ב-26 ביולי.
 * מבצע "קו האופק" - פעילות צה"ל בדרום רצועת עזה ואזור רפיח, שהחלה ב-2 באוגוסט.
 * מבצע "גן נעול" - פעילות צה"ל בשכונת סעג'יה, שהחלה ב-26 באוגוסט.
 * מבצע "איש הגשם" - פעילות צה"ל בדרום רצועת עזה וציר פילדלפי.
 * מבצע "ארבעת המינים" - פעילות צה"ל בצפון רצועת עזה, שהחלה ב-16 באוקטובר.
 * מבצע "פרי סחוט" - פעילות צה"ל בציר פילדלפי, שהחלה ב-17 באוקטובר.
 * מבצע "ענני סתיו" - פעילות צה"ל בבית חנון, שהחלה ב-1 בנובמבר.

Any thoughts (or perhaps a comment on Talk:Operation Autumn Clouds) on the matter would be greatly appreciated. בברכה, El_C 10:19, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Herodium from above.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Herodium from above.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self-no-disclaimers tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:09, 8 May 2007 (UTC).

Fair use rationale for Image:UofH.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:UofH.jpg. 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Thank you for your addition to the Everglades National Park article. There are some small details I need to fix in the text of the article that need to be confirmed by park personnel, but I hope to nominate it for FAC within a week or so.

Wikiworld comics
Hi I notcied that you are doing translations into hebrew of the wikiworld comics. Have you stopped, or taking a break. Im just curious to know which ones you want to do next, which ones you arent going to do, and anyones you want to do on your own. Zobango (talk) 22:57, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The translations are done for the Hebrew Wiki monthly newspaper - i.e. they are done once a month (and I need to do another one by tomorrow for this month edition). The topic which is chosen - is chosen according to an appropriate existing article in Hebrew wiki - unfortunately, the number of articles in he is significantly lower than in en - thus the choice is very limited. the next article will be the Exploding Whale. Why do you ask? Deror (talk) 07:08, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Spelling
I believe you have misspelled the links to the Hebrew pages of Ephesians (extra yoods)so that it reads (in translation) Epistle to the Ephesian Twins. Also Epistle does not have a yood. I tried to correct the spelling, but an editor reverted my edits because they would have broken the link. A Georgian (talk) 12:40, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * איגרת כותבים עם "י" אחרת יוצא משהו אחר. אפיסיים דורש שני יודים כי מדובר באנשים רבים. In other words - that is the correct spelling. Deror (talk) 12:45, 10 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your response; but with this spelling, would not the meaning be "The Epistle to the Ephesian Twins"? Is this not the consequence of the extra yood? Does it not turn a plural into a pair?. A Georgian (talk) 13:51, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * no, just plural. the "twin" form is not common and not used in modern hebrew - but we checked and apparently in most translations it is only with 1 yud, so we changed accordingly. As to the (Igeret) איגרת, without the י it comes אגרת (Agrat) which is modernly used for taxes or fees. Also a leangthy discussion (here) took place whether an "ה" is required (as in some it is always needed) and decided to add it to all. Deror (talk) 10:17, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The "pair" forms in modern Hebrew with which I am familiar are garbayim, mikhnasayim, pa'amayim, shenayim, oznayim, 'inayim, yadayim, raglayim, and etc. (clothes, pants, twice, teeth, ears, eyes, hands, legs - I haven't figured out how to get my Hebrew keyboard to work in this box). I agree with the use of H, the definite article; otherwise you would have "Epistle to", which, in Hebrew would more likely connote the indefinite article (a or an) than "the". Thanks for the feedback. A Georgian (talk) 13:10, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * The "pairs" you said do not relate to persons - for example חיפה (Haifa) חיפאי (belonging to Haifa) חיפאים (people of Haifa) חיפאיים (of Haifa or belonging to Haifa in plural) - and not a pair. Thus of the Epistle is to plural it is one י and if it is belonging to them it would be doublt י (a letter to the people of X will be one י and a letter to people belonging to a city i.e. citizens would be double י) . as to the H - the problem is only with the one which is numbered - האיגרת הראשונה as you can not have איגרת הראשונה. The rest will be with ה for the sake of conformity. Deror (talk) 17:27, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I see what you mean. A Georgian (talk) 17:40, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

suggestions
Hey, i was thinking maybe when you run out of comics that can be translated, you could make modifications to already existing comics, like what you did with the molasses one. Like modifiying the rutles to the beatles and so on. Thanks User:zobango —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.240.0.213 (talk) 00:11, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

I just wanted to comment on what a great job you did with the latest translation. your skills with adobe seem to be improving with everyone that you do Regards Zobango (talk) 20:25, 1 December 2008 (UTC) P.S.: Have you decided the next one yet?
 * It's not abode but rather the simplest microsoft drawing program. As to the next one - not yet. Deror (talk) 08:01, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Paint? You manage to do all that complex lettering with paint? Impressive. Im wondering how you are going to do it for W(which you are probably going to do next) and Cursive. Anyway, great job, and thanks for all of your kind responses P.S.: I not telling you what to do, but Fall Out Boy would make a good choice for the next translation i.e. fairly well-known topic, corresponding hebrew article. If you modified the Nocebo effect and focused just on the placebo bit, that would also be nice. Take care: 96.240.0.213 (talk) 22:44, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Th eproblem is that most of them do not have a hebrew equivalent (Fall out Boy and W ar epossible options). Deror (talk) 13:27, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks man. I dont know how you do it with your law career and our travels around the world. Thanks for the kind answers to all of my questions.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk ) 06:45, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Levitan, Sharon & Co.


A tag has been placed on Levitan, Sharon & Co. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mt king  (edits)  08:43, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

The deletion discussion doesn't mean you did something wrong. In fact, other editors may have useful suggestions on how you can continue editing and improving Levitan, Sharon & Co., which I encourage you to do. If you have any questions, feel free to ask at the Help Desk.

Proposed deletion of Adi Sened


The article Adi Sened has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. &#32; The nominator also raised the following concern:
 * All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

2 articles
Hi, added Canaan as it was possessed both in Abraham and Israels dayes with the stations and bordering nations and Bünting Clover Leaf Map, but the second had been tagged with "no footnotes". Don't exactly understand in such case, as the external links provide the general info on the map and the other content is mostly a description of the map, with the map image shown as well so also acts as a verifying source for the map's written description. If you have more sources-links, or you have an idea in which places exactly within the content itself its best to use the external links also as footnotes, you will save me further complication with this. אומנות (talk) 15:14, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

assistance in the article Researcher's night
Hey Deror, Can you please advise me how to get my draft approved? I've created the Draft:Researchers' Night and the submission has been rejected twice on the reason of notability. I know this is a very big event, I just can't seem to convince wikipedia... Even within wikipedia it's also mentioned in Public and Science and Team H2politO(although I guess I cannot link to a non-approved submission) Thanks Golan&#39;s mom (talk) 11:16, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:PG142.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:PG142.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:28, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Hello! I believe you compile the annual "coolest projects" report/presentation. I'm biased, since I spearheaded this effort, and I don't know the inclusion criteria, but you might enjoy reading about the ongoing 420 Collaboration. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 22:13, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Jenny Ohlsson
Hello Deror avi. You wrote on the Hebrew Wikipedia that Jenny was born in 1975. Yet the source only gives her age during the interview which could be interpreted as 1974 or 1975 depending on when her birthday is. Do you have another sourece for your claim? And why do you think that the Stieg Larsson link is about the same person? "Jenny Ohlsson" is a popular name in Sweden. There are many Swedes with this name. Best regards, --Gereon K.

Wrong nikud?
Hello!

It is about this page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niqqud

I think one has to write the Holam Male with a Kamatz instead of a Patach under the Lamed. Is that correct? IsaacAsimovForPresident (talk) 17:32, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

בקשה לעזרה
אני פונה אלייך כמפעיל מערכת בויקיפדיה העברית, הקמתי ערכים בויקיפדיה העברית וביצעתי עריכות מבוססות עם מקורות רלוונטיים, לא השחטתי אף פעם ואף מדי פעם קיבלתי הודעת תודה על תרומתי לויקיפדיה (אתה מוזמן אפילו להסתכל בערכים שהקמתי), יום אחד מפעיל מערכת ביקש ממני לא להקים יותר ערכים, למרות שלא הבנתי למה כיבדתי את הבקשה ולא הקמתי יותר ערכים אלא רק טיוטות, אך עם זאת הוא בכל זאת חסם את כתובת ה-IP שלי לזמן בלתי מוגבל. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.138.61.41 (talk) 19:58, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

Wiki of Functions followup
Hi there, I'm a researcher for the Wikilambda project. Last month we held a naming contest and I'm following up with those who voted to see if you might be willing to provide some feedback to help guide the project.

This would be a 45 minute conversation about your past experience with other Wikimedia projects and thoughts about the future of this new initiative. I'm hoping to gather a wide range of perspectives so I'd be interested in your opinion regardless of whether you plan to have further involvement.

As a way of saying thanks, the research team is offering a $35 gift card (in your local currency) for participation. We could chat by phone or through a website for audio conferencing.

If you're interested just pick a time slot from this calendar link: https://calendly.com/wikilambda/voter

Hope to hear from you soon!
