Cultural studies scholar Paweł Dobrosielski, who performs a vernacular culture analysis, reaches the same conclusion as Tokarska-Bakir.
editThis is not exactly correct. Dobrosielski states that while her analysis can be accepted he proposes a different interpretation--MyMoloboaccount (talk) 09:53, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
- Which is very similar in its own conclusion - however we don't need to argue here over the analysis of the Polish source, as we have a 3rd academic, cited in the article, stating this explicitly in English-
- source. QED. Icewhiz (talk) 10:28, 26 August 2019 (UTC)"Paweł Dobrosielski reaches the same conclusion by analyzing the image as an element of vernacular culture."
Level of craziness
editIcewhiz suggests that Polish culture is a kind of cargo cult. It imitates Jewish culture or uses it in an anti-Semitic way. Any aspect of Jewishness makes a page ten times longer. Mazurkas (Chopin) contain 14,163 bytes, this one 28,675 bytes. So the only way to develop Mazurkas (Chopin) is to find Jewish influence on the Mazurkas. And yes, I have found it https://en.chopin.nifc.pl/chopin/composition/detail/id/179 Xx236 (talk) 11:32, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
Survey data - separate section
editI've moved (and expanded) the survey data to a separate section - diff. Please note that using Dobrosielski directly is use of a WP:PRIMARYish source (this is a preliminary technical report - Wstępny raport z badań ). Some of Dobrosielski's findings are cited in a secondary manner (Tartakowsky) - which we should prefer. I am not averse to a further expansion of the survey section, with more data from Dobrosielski. However, please do so in the body of the article first - Jew with a coin#Survey - the amount of space for this in the (pretty short) lead should be limited, and we should agree first on the body prior to moving items up to the lead.

editMedia orgs
editWhy are we using media orgs — Vice, Haaretz, Jewish Chronicle, Newzealand Herald — in a topic so controversial and so well-traversed by academics? TrangaBellam (talk) 10:02, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
- Not even sure what the NZ piece, an extract from a travel-memoir by Diana Wichtel, is cited for in the lead. TrangaBellam (talk) 10:08, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

editI will appreciate some details about the journal/magazine, editorial board, etc. TrangaBellam (talk) 10:08, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
