Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Jewish Women

Template

I've created a barebones project template at Template:WPJW. An appropriate image would be nice, although finding something that captures the broad scope of this project might be tricky.Kschlot1 (talk) 02:15, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Just to let you know

I have changed the default sort so that this wikiproject shows up next to other women's projects in Category:WikiProjects relevant for countering systemic bias. Please notify me if you have any concerns. XOttawahitech (talk) 01:45, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Category:Jewish women

I thought I would start traversing Category:Jews to locate women who can be added to Category:Jewish women (to make it easier to add them to this project). The first article I stumbled on was Emily Bazelon. After I added her to the category, it occured to me to check to see if she is identified as Jewish in the text of the article, and to my surprise she was not. Just wondering... XOttawahitech (talk) 01:12, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

It's not cited in the WP article, but this interview with the Arizona Jewish Post[1] makes clear Bazelon is of Jewish descent and belongs to a Reform synagogue. This could be added to the article. Kschlot1 (talk) 13:15, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Assessment table

I am slowly adding this project's banner to Jewish women article talkpages and am wondering where the assessment table is for this wikiproject. Thanks in advance, XOttawahitech (talk) 15:39, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

As yet, we don't have an assessment table. It's on my to-do list to add one and put it into the banner template, adapted from the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women's_History/Assessment#Quality_scale - I will try to get to it soon we won't have banner-tagged pages without ratings. Kschlot1 (talk) 16:04, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

I've added an assessment option to the template and an assessment page -- let me know if I missed anything (this is pretty deep wiki territory for me). Kschlot1 (talk) 17:18, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Good luck

Good luck on the new project. i just added Leah Vincent to your project, as well as the larger judaism project. look forward to seeing an assessment table. I may try to add some pages to this project as i think of it.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 16:34, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject X is live!

Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

Notice and invitation

1. There is a redirect discussion that may be of interest to this group.
2. Have you heard of the Kaffeeklatsch? It is a test area for women to hear and support each other. The idea came about as a result of a discussion at meta regarding my IdeaLab proposal (yet open) for WikiProject Women.

Now that the klatsch has survived an MfD and WMF legal has said that it does not violate the non discrimination policy,[2] I am looking for women editors who might like to join.

Although I have started a couple of discussions, they are not urgent. For now, the "Please introduce yourself" discussion is more important! I want to take it slow at first and build a small group before trying to address heavy topics or come up with big goals. For now, the klatsch is there as a sort of refuge. I hope you will consider joining, and invite other women editors, too, if you wish.

Wiki Women in Red - a proposed User Group

Having worked for 2 years editing articles for Women In Red, a group of organizers have concluded that sourcing is one of the biggest hurdles in creating articles on women and non-binary genders. Though it is true that a lot of sourcing simply doesn’t exist, it is also true that there are sources, but we have no access to them. As these groups did not typically become subjects for academic study until the 1970s, many of the sources are not on line or are behind paywalls. Failure to include women and non-binary people in the encyclopedia presents a one-dimensional view of society and history. To address those issues, we are forming a new User Group aimed at referencing and support for like-minded groups and would appreciate your input or input from your supporters in our organizational process.

Question about nationality and identity at Hannah Arendt

There is a perpetual disagreement happening at this article on how best to identify Hannah Arendt. The current version of the article refers to her as German, which in her writings she identified as. However, she was also Jewish and in her writings she also self-identifies as Jewish -- in fact, she states in one essay that if she has to be identified as one thing only, it would be Jewish, given the scope of her work. Further complicating things is her residence in the US for decades. I just reverted a convoluted phrasing borrowed from the German Wikipedia (although it wasn't accurately translated): "German and American Jewish". No consensus has ever been reached and I believe the article just defaults to German at this point. I cannot find any guidelines on the proper way to identify someone who is unambiguously Jewish but is also identified as a nationality. It appears that local article-based conventions apply, so there is little or no consistency. I was hoping that someone in this WikiProject would be able to provide an answer. freshacconci (✉) 21:06, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

C. Doris Hellman

I have created an article for a subject listed by this project as in need of creation, C. Doris Hellman. However, although I can document that she was a long-term supporter of the Jewish Foundation for Education of Girls, that her husband was president of the Jewish Guild for the Blind, and that she is listed in the Encyclopedia of Jewish Women, I don't have a source explicitly saying she was Jewish, and so I have not put that into the article about her.

Identifying who is Jewish

I was wondering how do you define who is Jewish on Wikipedia since being Jewish seems to cross between religious and ethnic/cultural categories (i left the same post on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Judaism). What would be sufficient sourcing? I have searched all the relevant help pages but cannot seem to find a definitive answer. Assigning religious identity to living people requires self-identification (Wikipedia:BLPCAT) while deceased people may be identified without self-identification (e.g. "services were held at Temple xxxx"). Being Jewish as an ethnicity does not seem to require such a high hurdle (Wikipedia:ETHNICRACECAT). I was told that in order to designate a person as Jewish I would need multiple irrevocable sources that specifically state that the reference is referring to ethnicity in order to include. As most citations do not specify whether the subject is Jewish by faith or descent, they would not be sufficient. For example, Edits to Maurice Kremer (1824–1907) have been removed since I do not have multiple sources and the one I do have does not specify whether it refers to religion or ethnicity.

• "Maurice Kremer: Very Early Pioneer Jewish Merchant and Civil Servant of Los Angeles". Jewish Museum of the American West. Retrieved April 9, 2018.

and Evelyn Danzig Haas have been removed despite having an interview where she states she was confirmed and her parents attended temple during the high holy days

• Reiss, Susan B. (1995). "Evelyn Danzig Haas - Fine Arts and Family: The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Philanthropy, Writing, and Haas Family Memories - Interviews Conducted by Susan B. Reiss". Regional Oral History Office, The Bancroft Library University of California, Berkeley.

and despite her funeral being held at Congregation Emanu-El (San Francisco)

• Cabanatuan, Michael (27 June 2011). "Philanthropist, arts patron Evelyn Haas dies". SF Gate.

For living people, I am told that I need to demonstrate a verified consensus of reliable sources that indicate that their being Jewish is key to their notability in addition to self-identification. see Bruce Berkowitz with three sources deemed insufficient

• The Jewish Businessman Who Beats Warren Buffett At His Own Game. 19 July 2009
• Forbes: "Bruce Berkowitz Dances Quietly to the Beat of His Own Investment Drum" "He is of Jewish descent and is active in his community. The value investor donated $6.75 million to the Center for Jewish History in 2011."
• Grego, Gabriele (December 8, 2014). "The Jewish Origins of Value investing". The Times of Israel. It also should be pointed out that most value investors, including Benjamin Graham, Seth Klarman, Bruce Berkowitz, Bruce Greenwald, Lawrence Tisch and Joel Greenblatt, are Jewish.

If this is the standard, it seems that there will be very few Jewish biographies left (I was perusing "Jewish writers" and very few would stand up to this level of scrutiny).Patapsco913 (talk) 18:51, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

• @Patapsco913: I don't think this project is very active and it's been a while since your question, but in case it hasn't been answered then you are right, those restrictions you mention are far too high. I came here today to look at the talkpage banner in terms of importance assessment and some of that is relevant to your question: any living person who has self-identified as Jewish either culturally/religiously or ethnically, and any deceased person identified as Jewish, is included. The article is a higher level of importance if their Jewish identity holds some significance, but it does not have to be "key" to their notability - that would limit a Jewish identity to people like Anne Frank, and rabbis and theologians, which is backwards thinking since most Jewish people are those practicing under rabbis! For the example I came here looking at - Dianna Agron - we can see multiple sources confirming she is both ethnically and religiously Jewish, and there are sources on the relevance of this identity in terms of her career, but since her Wikipedia page was created back in 2006 before her religion was widely known, and her most famous role is a Christian, it's not the reason she is notable. By that measure, even Mary, mother of Jesus would not be allowed. So if you have sources making it explicit the person is Jewish, you can use it, just don't put it in the infobox unless there's a good reason. Kingsif (talk) 11:06, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

FYI

A discussion of Lists of Jewish people on the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#Coffee removing Categories and Lists Inappropriately has been started. I would imagine it will also encompass what sourcing is required to define someone as Jewish.Patapsco913 (talk) 14:21, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

20% women's biographies on English Wikipedia

Hello friends, if you follow Wikiproject Women in Red you might have seen that the proportion of women's biographies on English Wikipedia just tipped over 20% and it's a fatastic achievement for everyone!!!
