Talk:List of East Jerusalem locations

Category:East Jerusalem

Deletion of the overall category, Category:East Jerusalem, was endorsed by the closing admin of the deletion review linked below.

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_June_22

I think there would be little rational objection to more specific categories based on the 2 subsections of the page here. Here are the pages listed below that were categorized (incorrectly or not) at Category:East Jerusalem. There was one subcategory too: Category:Gates in Jerusalem's Old City Walls.

• A-Tur
• Al-Aqsa Mosque
• American Colony Hotel
• Augusta Victoria Hospital
• Beit Hanina
• Christian Quarter
• Church of St. James Intercisus
• Dome of the Rock
• East Jerusalem
• Faisal Husseini
• French Hill
• Gilo
• Har Homa

• Church of the Holy Sepulchre
• Jewish Quarter
• Ruhi al-Khatib
• Amin al-Majaj
• Michael Dennis Rohan
• Muristan
• Ophel
• Orient House
• Rockefeller Museum
• St. George's Cathedral, Jerusalem
• Temple Mount

Discussion is now archived here: [1]

It lists many examples of this still-ongoing POV campaign. --Timeshifter 17:38, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Maps

Tewfik blanked a couple maps from this article. See this diff [2].

The external link is to the best, most detailed map of East Jerusalem, etc. that I have found. The West Bank map, Image:We-map.png, that I put in the article puts Jerusalem in context.

B'Tselem - The Separation Barrier. Article with link to large PDF map of the West Bank that shows details of Jerusalem and surroundings.--Timeshifter 17:17, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

The maps are on the main articles, here they should be removed. This is a list, not an article. This is not even a POV issue. --Shuki 22:33, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

There is no rule against having images on a list page. That is ridiculous. I am a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Lists. Many list and chart pages have images. --Timeshifter 01:13, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Category:Disputed territories

In the same diff linked in the previous talk section Tewfik also removed Category:Disputed territories. The list of East Jerusalem locations includes many locations that are disputed territories. See the article East Jerusalem. --Timeshifter 17:20, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

After the above diff Tewfik again removed List of East Jerusalem locations from Category:Disputed territories. Here is the latest diff: [3]. His edit summary was "I'll grant the [POV] map until a better one can be found, but this is still a 'list', and not a 'territory' ( East Jerusalem, OTOH, is so categorised)".

Locations are territories according to the general sense of the term. See:

Isarig is tag-teaming with Tewfik. Here is the last diff. His edit summary is "not a 'territory' ". See WP:Vandalism#Types of vandalism and "frivolous" explanations. You guys need to discuss your deletions seriously.--Timeshifter 06:55, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
