mistakes[edit]

There are a lot of mistakes in this artical. The artical in hebrew is much better. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.172.74.43 (talk) 09:22, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to rewrite the article and translate the Hebrew and the Yiddish version. אלי לייטנר (talk) 20:17, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The next passag is entirly mistaken. I'v removed it from the article.

S. Sachs thinks that it was compiled from two previous works by the same author, the relation of the two productions to each other being that of text and commentary, the text giving merely the story of the Bible, which was interrupted by the commentary in the form of the Aggadah, and the commentary being intended for reading during the ten days of penitence. Meir ha-Levi Horwitz thinks that the author developed those Bible stories which bore relation to the entire nation, dealing lightly with those that concerned only individuals.

Customs and halachot which are not referred to PRE[edit]

"The regulation that during the recitation of the Kol Nidre on the Day of Atonement two prominent members of the community shall stand beside the cantor (xliv.), and that on Thursday all worshipers must stand while reciting prayers (ch. xlvi.)."

"Kol Nidre" and "Thursday" (why just Thursday?) are not mentioned in PRE at all. and the same is about the next custom:

"Recitation of Ps. xcii. during the Friday evening services (ch. xix.; comp. Shab. 118a)."

no Friday evening services is menstiond in PRE.

Such mistakes and others are found in the originl article in JE wiche was ritten hundred year ago. I'm rewriting this article based on Eliezer Treitl's new book and on the hebrew and Yidihs verstion. אלי לייטנר (talk) 15:05, 16 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request Edit - Public Domain English Text[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Sefaria recently digitized and posted the full text of the 1916 English translation by Gerald Friedlander. It's a public domain text. Sefaria presents it in parallel to the orignal Hebrew.

I believe that a link to this would fall under section 2 of WP:ELYES.

I have a COI (I work for Sefaria), and have discussed it on WikiProject:Judaism. Similar requests have been approved, and it seems there's consensus on this.

Link should probably be to Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer - orignal Hebrew and Friedlander translation.

Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer[edit]

Moved from User talk:TechnoSquirrel69 § Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer

I have corrected many of the issues in the article Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer. Please check if it is possible to slightly modify what you added at the beginning of the article. Thank you. טל ומטר (talk) 07:46, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message, טל ומטר; I've moved the discussion to the talk page, which is the best place to discuss improvements to an article in general. It looks like you've been doing good work so far, but I still see some of the issues I identified earlier: there are still sections of text with no sources, and the reference style needs some polishing. I would recommend that you use a citation template or two, which are explained in further detail at Help:Referencing for beginners. Also, note that parenthetical citations are not an acceptable style on Wikipedia — those need to be moved into the footnotes using <ref>...</ref> tags. As for the structure, I appreciate that you've reduced the number of sections, but the order in which information is presented is still rather atypical of encyclopedia articles. Rather than getting into further detail than this, I'd recommend you do a deep reading of a few articles in Category:FA-Class Book articles, which are among the highest-quality articles on Wikipedia that cover a similar subject. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 14:42, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your help. I will do my best to correct things according to your guidelines. טל ומטר (talk) 18:12, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've corrected and filled in many gaps, revising again and again. What else can and should be fixed? Thank you.טל ומטר (talk) 14:34, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've edited and restructured the material, combining smaller sections into more readable, complete chapters, and standardized the referencing style. Therefore, I'm removing the relevant templates that were initially placed at the beginning of the article. If there are any corrections or edits needed, please let me know, and I'll make the necessary adjustments. טל ומטר (talk) 22:39, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

peer review[edit]

The current article is rated as 'start'. After my recent contributions, I would appreciate a peer review. But I don't know how to do it. Thank you for your assistance. Tal Umatar.טל ומטר (talk) 18:39, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
