A group of small articles from Category:Days of the Hebrew calendar, that are all about Chabad holidays. These holidays already have a section in an article, Chabad customs and holidays. The articles are very short, partially inflated with unrelated and unnoteworthy additions, and are of minimal interest to the general public outside the Chabad movement.

 * @Debresser, I assume you'd prefer a redirect and merge any useful content. I.am.a.qwerty (talk) 05:30, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't think there is much to merge, if anything at all. As I said, the articles have been bloated with unrelated and unimportant information. Debresser (talk) 11:19, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect per WP:REDUNDANTFORK as follows: Yud Shvat (Hebrew date transliteration) to Chabad customs and holidays (same goes for similar redirects such as Gimel Tamuz and Gimel Tammuz); For numerical date articles: 1 Kislev to Kislev; 11 Nissan to Nisan; 22 Shvat to Shevat; 3 Tammuz and 12–13 Tammuz to Tammuz (Hebrew month).

 * I can see the logic behind a redirect to Chabad customs and holidays for the articles with dates in words. For the articles with dates in numbers, since no similar articles exist for other dates, I'd delete them. Debresser (talk) 11:19, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
 * It doesn't hurt to have them. I believe there is a full article for each Gregorian date. See March 1, March 2, et al. For the Hebrew calendar dates, the Hebrew month articles are where the individual dates are currently kept. Havradim leaf a message  17:04, 14 March 2022 (UTC)
 * If we had all dates of the Hebrew calendar, I would have no problem with that. But as it stands, only 4 other special date articles exist apart from the above nominated 6 Chabad holidays, out of a whole 414 possible Hebrew dates. For that reason, logic and statistics dictates that we delete these as well. Debresser (talk) 22:05, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * If we had all dates of the Hebrew calendar .... Well then, maybe we should. That is why I pointed out the Gregorian calendar articles, and why I !voted redirect instead of delete. Right now though, it seems that it is sufficient to have the individual dates in the month articles, instead of having an article for each, as in the Gregorian. And anyone can spend a few hours of their life and create a redirect for each of the 400 or so Hebrew dates (see: WP:OTHERSTUFFDOESNTEXIST; I counted approximately 383 numbered dates, including Adar Sheni). Investing a lot more hours would get us at least one line about almost every one of those dates, including yahrzeits of notable people and other historical events in Jewish history where the Hebrew calendar date plays a significant role in their historicity.

 * redirects per Havradim. THe articles contain valid referenced information. Loew Galitz (talk) 18:43, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect exactly as per Havradim. Very precise look at it all. I think that there is no issue with having any arbitrary date like 4 Iyar redirect to Iyar or an appropriate subsection. TartarTorte 18:51, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
