I shall contribute a piece shortly --Cunningham 18:35, 1 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Main body of text now in, along with 5 images. It needs a lot more about its later history, which I am now researching.--Cunningham 16:00, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Tristram Hillier - Jezreel's Temple (1936).jpg

[edit]

Image:Tristram Hillier - Jezreel's Temple (1936).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The name lives on?

[edit]

I'm not sure how relevant this is and whether or not it should go in to the entry but when I left Gillingham (my home town) some 20 years ago the area at from the top of Canterbury St to the top of Chatham Hill was still known locally simply as 'Jezreels' even amongst people who didn't know the reason why.

I know everybody wants a source for every last detail so can anybody find anything that meets WP's standards?188.29.113.62 (talk) 18:23, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the name lives on officially in the name of the nearby bus stop. But yes, I agree that locality was called The Jezreels. It was certainly called The Jezreels in the 1950s when I lived there. But the site at that time was surrounded by a high wall or hoarding, so that you could not see the remains of the building from Canterbury Street. There used to be rumours of kids getting into the site. There were also myths that the building was originally intended as some kind of tower of Babel, but that they ran out of money before they could reach heaven with it. A good story, anyway, and perhaps more fun than the truth. Storye book (talk) 09:40, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Birth date of JJJ

[edit]

@Qwirkle: The birth year of James Rowland White, later known as James Jershom Jezreel, is given in the first line of the citation attached to that fact. Storye book (talk) 09:19, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Who do you think asked this question? It certainly was not me. On the other hand, one wonders what sort of poseur would use “merchant’s cleric” in the late 19th century…or worse yet in the 21st.Qwirkle (talk) 16:15, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I was responding to this edit summary: diff. But I see now, that you were confused by the typo "cleric" instead of "clerk". I did not create that typo myself, and I hadn't noticed it. I have now corrected it. Peace and love. Storye book (talk) 17:06, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
