Wikipedia and antisemitism

Yesterday an editor created Wikipedia and antisemitism; a proposal to merge into Criticism of Wikipedia is now under discussion — xDanielx ^T/_C\^R 21:11, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is now an AfD to delete Wikipedia and antisemitism. In addition, the merge proposal was closed and then reopened, the article has undergone many edits, and the merge proposal is still open to everyone's comments. ProfGray (talk) 16:37, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Help needed at Haymanot and Beta Israel

I was working on copyediting Beta Israel, and the Beta Israel#Religion section needed extensive CE. I did my best there, but it also needs a lot more citations and verification of existing citations. That section seems to be lifted straight out of Haymanot, which also needs better citations and verification. I've added Template:GOCEreviewed to Haymanot, and would appreciate someone knowledgeable to look over the content before I return to copyedit it further.

Cleanup of WikiProject Judaism's style advice essay

FYI

– Pointer to relevant discussion elsewhere.

The page presently at WP:WikiProject Judaism/Manual of Style has been nominated for renaming to WP:WikiProject Judaism/Style advice to be consistent with other wikiproject advice essays on style, since it is not part of the WP:MOS guidelines.

For the same reason, "MOS" shortcuts to it are nominated for replacement, at WP:Redirects for discussion/Log/2024 November 24#MOS:JEW.

PS: The wording in it needs considerable work, as it strays off-topic, has a bit of an us-vs.-them and occasionally even ranty tone, ironically has not been in compliance with a dozen or so parts of the actual MoS, and has other issues. I resolved a bit of this in one section, but really this hasn't been very substantively overhauled in over a decade, and almost all of it is the output of a handful of 2006–2007 editors. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 08:14, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
