Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Yitzchok Ezrachi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mattesdorf (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Dov Lipman

[edit]

I am the individual who removed the referral to Rabbi Feldman in Rabbi Lipman's Biography.

There is a blatant error regarding Rabbi Lipman's relationship with the Rabbi Feldman that I have tried to address in two edits and that has been returned to the Biography each time. Rabbi Feldman is listed as Rabbi Lipman's former Head of the Yeshiva. In fact as documented in references 5 and 6, Rabbi Feldman was not only not at the Yeshiva during Rabbi Lipman's tenure there, he has in fact never met Rabbi Lipman. Rabbi Yaakov Weinberg of Blessed Memory was the Head of the Yeshiva then.

This is significant firstly because the lack of familiarity can account for Rabbi Feldman's misinformation that led to his retraction of the term "wicked" apostate. Secondly, the use of the term "shamed" itself is misleading as that term never was used by Rabbi Feldman and in light of the much milder retraction, is defamatory to Rabbi Lipman. Thirdly, the invitation by the largest Orthodox body in the U.S. (the RCA) to Rabbi Lipman to give a keynote address this year after the matter with Rabbi Feldman was publicized shows that the education issue in Israel is complex, not universally accepted in the Orthodox world and not helped by name-calling in a Biography.

I would suggest something else rather than deleting the information from the article (which was originally added by well-established wikipedia members, not new IP addresses whose only edits on wiki are deleting information from this article) which can be viewed as trying to "censor" wikipedia from opinions that you don't agree with. Try adding a section to the article on Lipman and explain the complex issue involved about Rabbi Feldman (the dean of his alma mater)'s opposition to Lipman's views and the RCA's acceptance of it (you can even add about him speaking in the BAYIT in Toronto etc...). But, bear in mind two things: everything in wikipedia has to be neutral and sourced. Try to rid yourself of your own personal נגיעות and present an accurate clear picture of the issue with all the different sides. Hatzlocha!רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 18:30, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
