Biography of living person

edit

The information about his parents and his family is not cited. Since this article is about a living person, I believe that violates the Wikipedia rules for articles about living persons. That information should be reliably cited or else removed. I changed b1 from yes to no. Djmaschek (talk) 02:25, 3 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

I've found a definitive source for his wife and 3 kids. It's a bit old so he might have more kids by now, but he has at least 3! His father is certainly Hillel Gordin who is quite a notable marine scientist, who definitely studied at the Scripps institute (in San Diego), and the source says Ori was born in California, so it all seems to check out. I don't think it violates WP:BLP on the basis that 'contentious' material needs to be removed swiftly, and the only thing left is his mother's name, and there are even sources that Hillel's wife was called Rachel, so it's near as anything. I think a [citation needed] should do for now, and I will post on the Israel project to see if it can be removed swiftly as I'm far from a native Hebrew reader!

User:Djmaschek Having re-read the sources, it seems none of this material was ever unsourced, just the inline citation wasn't there. [1]https://www.makorrishon.co.il/nrg/online/1/ART2/550/105.html]] includes his mothers name, and that they moved to Israel in when Gordin was 2 (i.e. 1971), I think that covers everything.

@SaarF: C class (b1=no). At the end of Biography section, paragraph 3, there is an uncited sentence fragment. At the end of paragraph 4, there are two sentences that are uncited. If you want B class, please cite these. Djmaschek (talk) 02:47, 8 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
my bad! by "At the end of paragraph 4, there are two sentences that are uncited." you mean these? "serving in this position during the COVID-19 pandemic and in Operation Guardian of the walls, among others." "He served in this position until July 18, 2022."

@SaarF: There are uncited sentence fragments at the end of paragraph 3 ("he went to study in the United States") and paragraph 4 ("a position he held until April 7, 2020"). Everything below the Introduction must be cited for an article to be B class. Also, the 98th Paratroop Division is not listed in the infobox under Commands held. The request for a B class review was unsigned, so I assumed it was yours. Djmaschek (talk) 22:11, 14 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
I added a citation to the end of paragraph 3 and deleted the one in paragraph 4 as I couldn't find a source for it (that information was copied from the hebrew wikipedia page which also doesn't cite it). I also added the 98th division to the infobox. SaarF (talk) 18:05, 15 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
