Hey.....SF2K1 or SpaceFalcon2001 recomemnded u as the guy to talk to if I want to know about Chasidim. IF this is true. Tell me so and I will leave u my email adress so i can leave a lengthier set of questions. Thanks, Michael
Dear Michael,
The fact you stated above is true. Please send me your e-mail address so I can answer any questions you have. --ChanochGruenman 20:18, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
thanks i got it
[edit] The Raavad
Hi Chanoch, compliments on Fast of Gedalia. I had to turn your fine The Raavad into a redirect, because a (much longer) page was extant on Abraham ibn Daud. Generally, wikipedia articles on rabbonim follow their non-abbreviated name (see Judah Low ben Bezalel, instead of Maharal). In case you want to write up something, always search first to see what's already here. There's a few other Jewishly active people here: User:IZAK, User:Fintor and User:Frikle and myself have been thinking about starting a Jewish WikiProject for Jewish articles. Please drop a line soon!

[edit] Fast of Gedalia
Hi Chanoch, I echo Jfdwolff on his complements on your work on Fast of Gedalia. I actually started a few months ago a page at Fast of Gedaliah (with the 'h'), but I've scrapped it to redirect to yours which is much more complete and covers everything in my text. Welcome aboard. Jewbacca 09:57, Jul 4, 2004 (UTC)
Hi Chanoch. Are you a student of Shmuel's at Yavneh? If so, send him regards from Danny Wool. I am an old time Wikipedia editor, and I have known Shmuel for about 35-40 years. Danny 04:03, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Spodik
Just wondering, in comparison to the shtreimel, how much does a typical spodik cost? Please add to article.SF2K1
[edit] Vizhnitzer Rebbe Picture
Thanks for uploading Vizhnitzer_Rebbe.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, Woohookitty 08:24, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Don't worry was released into the public domain my careless error for not labeling it. --ChanochGruenman 08:41, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Slojme An-Ski, Dybbuk
- Halló ChanochGruenman! I foud you at yi:. Long years ago I was reading Dibuk written by Slojme An-Ski in the Esperanto translation by Izrael Lejzerowicz.
- google +An-Ski+Dibuk shows some links, google "Izrael+Lejzerowicz"+Dibuk too. Izrael Lejzerowicz was killed in Treblinka.
- Do you know if the text is online and could be posted at wikisource: ?
- I was traying to learn Yiddish in Romania, where I visited often the State Jewish Theater (Romania) in Bucharest, later I subskribed for Birobidzhaner stern until I left Romania.
- Would be nice to here from you. Best regards Gangleri | Th | T 02:45, 2005 Feb 17 (UTC)
[edit] Hassidic Clothing
I've noticed that you make many improvements to articles on Hassidic Judaism. Something that I lack the knowledge of, but which you may have, is the different styles of dress for all the Hassidic groups. I've heard that different groups where different coats, different hands, etc. I think the articles on Hassidic Jewish groups would be improved if they had this informaiton. Also, more pictures of individual Hassidic Jews would be nice. There's one picture up now, but it's just a mass of black coated people. I personally think mass pictures like that are pretty bad, it's impossible to see the celebrants as individuals when they're all together like that. Dinopup 15:43, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I can probably get the photos up Wednesday morning --ChanochGruenman 23:24, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Use (Hasidic dynasty) to standardize naming of groups
Hi Chanoch, good work so far, but I have had to edit and Wikify a lot of your work. In order to maintain a standard naming format for all the Hasidic groups, add (Hasidic dynasty) to each name so that it will be clear what the subject is. For example: "Nadvorna" is now Nadvorna (Hasidic dynasty), "Belz" is Belz (Hasidic dynasty) etc. IZAK 08:36, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Use Your Knowledge
Hi Chanoch,
You know, one of the main points of Wikipedia is to share your knowledge. For a while I have been telling you to edit the Chiastic structure article which I put up and you happen to have information to add to the article. Plus, it needs to be copyedited. Can you please get around to helping me with it?
[edit] Mishnah on Wikibooks
Hi Chanoch.
I noticed that you had signed up as a participant for the Mishnah Project on Wikibooks.
I don't know when you were there last, but I wanted you to know that recently I have given the whole project a major facelift. Besides the English version, links between languages (English and Hebrew) now also use a whole new system, a very cool setup which is being enabled by the Hebrew version's move to Wikibooks. English and Hebrew mishnayot and tractates are linked in the sidebar.
Would love to get get comments and suggestions. And if you want to contribute, say, a Mishnah a week - that would be fantaastic! I myself plan to get started on Pirkei Avot.Dovi 07:17, Mar 10, 2005 (UTC)

Someone has posted on that article's talk page that it should be merged with Chiasmus. Your opinion? E=MC^2 T@lk
[edit] Menachem Mendel Schneerson
Why was the entire political activities section removed? There seems to have been alot of relevant material there. --Eliezer 09:36, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Dear Eliezer, I am terribly sorry it was taken out by mistake please reinsert it into the article. sorry. --ChanochGruenman 01:39, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] User:Jfdwolff/Hebrew
Jfdwolff has a very useful table for inserting the Hebrew letters into wikitext. I noticed in several of your contributions (like Lag Ba'omer) you did not put the Hebrew letters next to the English transliteration you gave, which might have been helpful. I hope this helps! :-) E=MC^2 T@lk
[edit] Skver (Hasidic dynasty)
Jayjg has suggested that you'd be able to improve this new (substub) article; could you take a look at it please? Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 17:13, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Oh Nos! They've started without you! I guess they really want to hear about the Skver! SF2K1
Dear Mel Etitis,
I will fix it when I have the time to. With God's help I can do it this Saturday night. I have been meaning to write a Skver article and I will now expand this one shortly. thank you for pointing it out. --ChanochGruenman 01:32, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Template: Hasid-stub on "TfD" (Templates for Deletion)
Hi Chanoch: I have placed your new {{Hasid-stub}} (Template:Hasid-stub) on Wikipedia:Templates for deletion#Template:Hasid-stub [1]. My feeling is that at this time it is PREMATURE to split the stubs relating to Judaism and to Jewish history. We need to hold off on this "Hasid" template for now. Best wishes. IZAK 07:26, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- If you want to defend this template, you must go to its entry in TfD soon. — Xiong熊talk 18:57, 2005 Apr 16 (UTC)

Hi Chanoch, please see and provide your input on the talk page of the proposed Template:Judaism. Thank you. IZAK 07:45, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Category:Hebrew Bible verses
Hello Chanoch: See the verses in Category:Hebrew Bible verses with the two samples so far: Genesis 1:1, and Genesis 1:2. Is this the way the Torah verses should be "presented"? (Compare with the verses in Category:New Testament verses.) At what point should the classical teachings of famous meforshim be inserted, and in what way and how much? The time to decide on this is now, because at this stage the "project" is still being "formed" by User:Neutrality alone. Thank you. IZAK 03:07, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Yiddish Wikipedia
Hi ChanochGruenman. As a Yiddish speaker, you might be interested in my half-baked plan to revitalize the moribund (only 121 articles) Yiddish Wikipedia. Please see my idea at Talk:Yiddish_language#Yiddish_Wikipedia, and thanks.--Pharos 05:14, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging for Image:Reb_Meir_Shapiro.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Reb_Meir_Shapiro.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image 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 image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.
If you have uploaded other images, 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.
