21 years on Wikipedia!

During December 2023, I celebrated the completion of twenty one years on Wikipedia. Once again, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the entire Wikipedia team and family and my many fellow editors for giving me the opportunity to use my time productively by allowing me to contribute from my education, knowledge, experience and skills to this amazing project over twenty one very productive years. Thank you so much to everyone concerned and a special thank you to the many readers who utilize this encyclopedia. Feel free to leave a message at: User:IZAK/awards#21 years in 2023.

Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer

I am reaching out to seek your assistance regarding Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer. A while ago, a template was placed listing items that needed correction. These issues have since been addressed. However, as I am relatively new here, I do not feel comfortable removing the template on my own authority. I would greatly appreciate your help in reviewing the corrections and removing the template if everything is in order. Thank you very much for your time and assistance. טל ומטר (talk) 07:02, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Supreme Court of Israel confronts the Haredim

I liked your article on Arutz Sheva. Yes, I still exist, although I haven't been as active on Wikipedia as I was 20 years ago... But I think I'm making a comeback... רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 10:56, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article History of the Jews in Cambodia has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Just because some Jews have lived in Cambodia does not make this a notable community

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Also:

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jewish populations in nations

Hello, IZAK,

I saw your comment in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/History of the Jews in Cambodia about having spent time working on articles about Jewish populations in different countries. I thought I'd let you know that the following articles were PROD'd this week and I de-PROD'd them:

So, you might want to look over these articles since the editor who PROD'd them is likely to send them to AFD. Thanks for your contributions on the project. Liz Read! Talk! 23:51, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Liz: Thank you so much for this notification and for your wise actions. It has been a long and arduous road to build up articles about the "History of the Jews in ____" on WP but they are all parts of a much greater whole as can be seen in Category:Jewish history by country. Now for someone not sensitive to the goals of the over-all project of building up a comprehensive history of the Jews in all countries on WP to start dismantling the articles bit by bit, we will be left with nothing in the end because there are only long histories of Jews that have historical records in relatively few countries. Please contribute to the AfD discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/History of the Jews in Cambodia and cast your vote and make your voice heard, as a lot of the WP Judaic editors, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Judaism/Members and Wikipedia:WikiProject Jewish history/Members, have put in a lot of work into these type of articles over the last twenty+ years on WP but have since retired and cannot defend their work so it is up to me as a "lone ranger" survivor on WP and I cannot cope with such a large load of editorial and defensive work. I am only one man, so your help would be invaluable. Thanks so much for your understanding. Best wishes, IZAK (talk) 04:55, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll consider your request but if I participate in a discussion, I can't close it and I think my expertise lies more in determining consensus than making arguments in support of Keep or Deletion. But, again, I'll review that AFD. Liz Read! Talk! 03:00, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
