Minor/major edits
Your edit to the page on the Chida was decidedly not a "minor edit" as you flagged it. Minor edits are corrections of spelling etc. Are you sure the section titled "superstition" conforms to WP:NPOV? JFW | T@lk  21:39, 18 February 2006 (UTC)


 * The "superstition" section is straight from the Jewish Encyclopedia, which I consulted when I initially wrote the Chida article. I find the whole use of the term "superstition" troublesome. It indicates irrational or even deluded thoughts and actions, and is not WP:NPOV without a source actually calling him that (e.g. "the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia labels many of his customs superstitious").


 * The 1906 JE is not the final word on many issues. It is unreasonably biased towards modern interpretations by a small group of 19th century scholars. If you are unsure whether a certain point is worth including here, there's always WikiProject Judaism where you can take soundings and request comments. JFW | T@lk  09:33, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Regarding User:Sandbox and User:Sandbox2
...May I ask why you're making edits in these users their namespace? Soothing R  09:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I take it that you actually meant to edit Sandbox? If so, I'll delete the userpages of these users, as they weren't created by them.[[Image:Weather rain.png]] Soothing R  09:27, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Yoel Sirkis
For some strange reason, the Bach had two articles on him - Yoel Sirkis and Joel Sirkes. Following the advice in the wikipedia:merging section, I merged the two together and hopefully left all the information in, only deleting in the event of repitition or overlap. Hope you don't mind - I've redirected everything - see it here at Yoel Sirkis (it was also listed in both the Orthodox Rabbis and Middle Ages Rabbis categories, so I changed it just to Orthodox Rabbis).

Bach
You wrote in the original Joel Sirkes article that


 * ''Sirkes wrote: "Meshib Nefesh," commentary on the Book of Ruth (Lublin, 1616); "Bayit Ḥadash," commentary on the "Arba'ah Turim" of Jacob ben Asher (Cracow, 1631-40); "She'elotu-Teshubot Bayit Ḥadash" (Frankfort, 1697); "She'elot u-Teshubot Bet Ḥadash ha-Ḥadashot" (Koretz, 1785); "Haggahot," on all the tractates of the Babylonian Talmud; and '"Rosh," first published, from a manuscript, in the Warsaw (1860) edition of the Talmud, and included in almost every subsequent edition thereof.


 * Hence I'm hoping you can answer at least the second of these two questions posed here: . With many thanks and compliments on a great article, Nesher 21:32, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
