Talk:Ringelblum Archive

Requested move 20 June 2016

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Ringelblum Archive. This is a close call, but there seems to be a general consensus that the current title has a potential to mislead, and Ringelblum Archive, mentioned by several posters as a potential alternative, also has an advantage of being WP:NATURAL.

Oyneg Shabbos → Oyneg Shabbos (group) – This is a WWII group. "Oyneg Shabbos" is the same as the name "Oneg Shabbat" refers to "enjoyment on Shabbat". IZAK (talk) 16:58, 20 June 2016 (UTC) --Relisting. Anarchyte (work | talk) 07:39, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

• Support moving this page to another name and redirecting the two current redirects עונג שבת and Oyneg shabes to Oneg Shabbat. As IZAK indicated, "Oyneg Shabbos" is both the Ashkenazi pronunciation and the Yiddish equivalent of the Hebrew "Oneg Shabbat", and there's no reason to disambiguate on the basis of pronunciation.
  However, the question of the new name is vexing. Should it be "Oyneg Shabes Archive"? the ahistoric but much more common "Oneg Shabbat Archive"? the still more common "Emanuel Ringelblum Archive"? As far as I can tell, Oyneg Shabes originally referred to both the "gatherers" and the archive; today, it is used mostly to refer to the archive. We may need to broadcast this move request (WP:JUDAISM and WP:POLAND, for starters) to get the input of a larger group of editors. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 02:16, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Based on the comments below, I support moving to Ringelblum Archive. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 14:07, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
• Support move to Ringelblum Archive, as a very common name, which also has the advantage of being unambiguous, and which avoids confusion. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 03:52, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
• I've notified WP:JUDAISM, WP:POLAND, and WP:MILHIST, the three WikiProjects whose banners are at the top of this page. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 04:28, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
• Support moving to Ringelblum Archive. Even though the Oyneg Shabes [1] is more than three times as popular as Ringelblum Archive in Google Books, [2] DR Emanuel Ringelblum is a universally recognized scholar without whom the Archive would not have existed.

• Comment someone searching for Oneg Shabbat would either use that term or Oneg Shabbos, they wouldn't spell out Oyneg. I think Oyneg Shabbos can be the main article about the group with a hatnote to Oneg Shabbat. Sir Joseph ^(talk) 16:57, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
• Comment I have no problem with the move, but I don't feel strongly either way. Both names are deserving of honor. I would point out that Oneg Shabbat is a disambiguation page, and its entry for enjoyment of the Sabbath links to a section of Shabbat which has a one line mention of Oneg Shabbat containing less information about the concept than the disambiguation page.--agr (talk) 02:14, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
• Relist comment: I've relisted this discussion due to there being consensus supporting the move, but there isn't any obvious consensus on where to move it to. Pinging all participating users: @IZAK, Malik Shabazz, Cullen328, Poeticbent, Sir Joseph, and ArnoldReinhold:. Anarchyte (work | talk) 07:39, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Unless we all agree on one thing, and only one thing, this request is not going to materialize, which is the usual outcome. I'm sure participants are aware of that. My final comment is that the "enjoyment on Shabbat" was an intentionally misleading name of a clandestine organization. The name therefore will always be misleading for as long as "enjoyment on Shabbat" is what it is, no matter what spelling difference we use. Poeticbent talk 12:57, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

P.S. I'm not sure what to do with pages Oyneg Shabbos (which currently redirects here, to preserve linking) and Oneg Shabbat (which is a malformed two-entry dab page). In my opinion, both of them should redirect to the same target, but I'm not qualified to decide which one. No such user (talk) 09:23, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, Anarchyte and No such user. I've changed all the redirects that were aimed at this page or at Oneg Shabbat (the former disambiguation page with two entries) to redirect to the appropriate section of Shabbat and added a hatnote to that article. Currently, Oyneg Shabbos (the old title) still redirects here. It's linked in ten articles and I'm too lazy right now to fix them, but eventually they should be fixed and Oyneg Shabbos should also be redirected to Shabbat#Other rituals. Thanks again. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 03:22, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
