Prof. Reichman's article

edit

Hi Number 57, I'd like to suggest the following addition to Prof. Reichman's article. Please let me know if there is anything I need to change. Thank you for your consideration.


Early life and education:

Uriel Reichman was born in Tel Aviv during the British Mandate to Gerda and Alfred, refugees who fled from Nazi Germany in the 1930s to the Land of Israel. He studied in New High School (Tichon Hadash) in Tel Aviv and was a member at Hebrew Scouts Movement in Ramat Gan.

Reichman served in the Paratroopers Brigade of the Israel Defense Forces from 1960 to 1963, earning the rank of Lieutenant. As a commander in the IDF Reserves, he fought in the Six-Day War, War of Attrition, and Yom Kippur War. After his brother, Gad, fell in a battle in the Golan Heights during the Yom Kippur War, he was transferred to a non-combat unit and served as the President of a Military Tribunal with the rank of Major[1].

Reichman studied law at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, receiving an LLB in 1967 and an LLM in 1972. In 1975, he was awarded an JSD degree by University of Chicago. Kerenmr (talk) 09:36, 20 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Done. Number 57 23:55, 20 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for accepting these additions. I'd like to offer some additional information about Prof. Reichman's academic career:

Reichman served as a Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, Professor, and Dean (1985-1990) at the Faculty of Law, at [Aviv University]. His academic publications address property law and were published in leading law journals—among them Journal of Legal Studies, University of Chicago Law Review], and Southern California Law Review—and cited by the Supreme Court of Virginia, the Supreme Court of Oregon, the Supreme Court of Wisconsin, the Court of Appeals of Washington, and the Supreme Court of Israel.

Professor Reichman contributed to the reform in higher education in Israel, by establishing academic studies in private colleges alongside the public universities; the reform has allowed more people access to high education in Israel (in 2015, 66% of all students in Israel studies in colleges). In 1990, Reichman founded the Ramot Mishpat Law School—the first private law school in Israel not subsidized by the government, and led it until 1994.

In 1994, Professor Reichman founded the [Center (IDC) Herzliya], the first non-profit private institution of higher education in Israel. He has served as its President from its establishment to date, with the exception of only one year (2006). From a small college with 240 students operating in the barracks of a former military base, IDC Herzliya has developed into a leading academic institution in Israel under his leadership with 7000 students from all over the world.

Reichman was awarded a number of prizes, among them, the Life Achievement Award by the Israeli Marketing Association (2016); a Prize for a contribution to scientific innovation, academic excellence, and legal education in Israel by the Israel Bar Association (2015); an honorary doctorate by Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf, Germany (2010); and the “Knight of Quality Government Award” by the Movement for Quality Government in Israel (2000).

Hi Number 57, I've recently made some suggestions to Prof. Uriel Reichman's article on the last talk page.

I was wondering if you've had the chance to look over them?

Please let me know if I need to send anything else.

Thank you.

Kerenmr (talk) 11:03, 14 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Kerenmr: Sorry for the delay; I've made some of the changes you suggest. Some I have not made for various reasons;
  1. The list of his academic publications is a bit too CV-like.
  2. The bit about allowing more people access to higher education is a bit of WP:SYNTHESIS (we'd need a direct source attributing the growth to Reichmann).
  3. There is no source for him being president of the IDC after 2006
  4. The history of the IDC is relevant to the article on the IDC itself
  5. The Israeli Marketing Association does not have an article on Wikipedia so it does not appear to be a notable organisation. I have omitted that prize, but included the others.
Cheers, Number 57 13:02, 14 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

No problem, thanks. I will try to find a direct source for the missing bits. 194.153.101.99 (talk) 16:32, 16 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

thnak you! Bhbarak (talk) 08:40, 24 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Bhbarak: Before I look at these edits, could you confirm whether you have a WP:Conflict of interest here. Are you working for or on behalf of Reichman or his organisations? If so, you are expected to disclose this. Number 57 09:16, 24 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

hi number 57. no, i dont have WP:Conflict of interest. I am writing and editing Wikipedia content from 2013 And to this day I edited and wrote dozens of articles on Wikipedia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhbarak (talkcontribs) 10:47, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

I'm afraid I don't believe you. Your requested text is pretty much exactly the same text that was previously added by an account named "Idc.herzliya" and then again by Kerenmr (who admitted working for Reichmann). The chances of this being a coincidence are practically zero, so the only reasonable conclusion is that you're either the same person as the "Idc.herzliya" account, or you're editing on their behalf. If you can't be honest about this, then your edits are not going to be considered.
Aside from this, the proposed text is not that much different from the original, except that it is entirely unreferenced, uses inappropriate terminology ("Land of Israel") and has inline external links, which should not be done, so I don't think your proposal would be accepted anyway. Number 57 10:59, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hi
I try to edit the same text, not trying to hide it. Apologize for misunderstanding.
I am helping Kerenmr to succeed in editing Uriel Reichman's Wikipedia page. And that's because she could not do it properly by herself.
I'm here to change anything you tell me. 100% willingness to write it right.

(For example: "Erez Israel", I did not think you would have a problem with it, now understand the explanation you wrote). Thank you for your reading and comments — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhbarak (talkcontribs) 13:36, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

As far as I can see, there is no need to change any of the current text, as it says pretty much the same thing as what Kerenmr has requested. Kerenmr is also able to make requests on the talk page so there is no need to use a proxy to do so. Number 57 13:50, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Why you can not change Interdisciplinary to Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya Or: IDC Herzliya This is the right name of the place And so it is mentioned in Wikipedia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhbarak (talkcontribs) 14:16, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I was talking about the second set of changes and missed that one. Now fixed. Number 57 14:20, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

1. please change: In 1994 he established the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, serving as its president until 2006.[4][5] to: In 1994 he established the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya.[4][5] He has served as its President from its establishment to date, with the exception of only one year (2006)[1]

Because this is the reality today. I added a reference to the official website of IDC Herzliya.

2. please change: He was awarded an honorary doctorate by Heinrich Heine University in 2010. In 2015 he received the annual Israel Bar Association prize.[8] to: He was awarded an honorary doctorate by Heinrich Heine University in 2010. In 2015 he received the annual Israel Bar Association prize.[8] On April 23rd 2018, Prof. Reichman was awarded The Robert and JoAnn Bendetson Public Diplomacy Award on behalf of The Institute for Global Leadership at Tufts University.[2]

I added an updated award from this year. I added a reference to the official website of IDC Herzliya thank you! Bhbarak (talk) 14:04, 24 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

I have added the second request. However, before I deal with the first, with regards to his presidency of the IDC, was the 2006 hiatus due to him becoming a Knesset member? As an aside on this request, the source does not support the statement being made so will not be used. Number 57 16:01, 24 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

hello 57, As for your question, the answer is yes. There was a brief break, in which Reichman served as a Knesset member. For convenience, 2 new links are added. 1. An article from YNET about his entry into politics in Israel. 2. An article from Haaretz on his departure from politics Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.179.223.230 (talk) 19:51, 26 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

PS The last article (from Ha'aretz) Also documents his retirement from politics - and his return to be president of IDC Herzliya thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhbarak (talkcontribs) 07:56, 27 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Done. Number 57 23:27, 27 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello Number 57 There are 3 updates as of today, which I would be happy to do:

1. At the end of the first paragraph, add after the word "Kadima", the sentence: “Currently serving as the Chairperson of the Board of Directors of Reichman University.”

(This is actually his current position at Universita).

A reference to this: https://www.runi.ac.il/en/about/prof-reichman/biography/

2. In the first paragraph, the internal link to Reichman University is incorrect - It appears under the old name "Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya" I would like the internal reference to be on the correct word in the continuation of the sentence: "Reichman University".

3. Under his picture, change to the title: "Founding President of Reichman University"

(Instead of "Faction represented in the Knesset" - which is less relevant in relation to his current position)

Hope I worded things well. Thanks in advance! Bhbarak (talk) 11:42, 25 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've made the first two changes. I'm not sure the final one is something we usually have in infoboxes. Number 57 11:46, 27 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
First of all, thanks for the quick response!

unfortunately The changes did not enter. (I also checked the history and did not see that someone removed them). Could you please check again? And regarding 3 - I checked, you can freely write the title in the infobox - under the word "office 1". Another thing, if you want, I can happily make the changes myself. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bhbarak (talkcontribs) 06:44, 28 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

The changes were made, although not exactly as requested. "Founding president" is not an office, so I don't think is appropriate in the infobox. Cheers, Number 57 12:01, 28 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
There may be a misunderstanding, but I don't see the changes. Neither in the article nor in the history of changes.
1. The sentence "Currently serving as the Chairperson of the Board of Directors of Reichman University" - does not appear in the first paragraph. And nowhere in the article.
2. The internal link that points to Reichman University still appears on the wrong words "Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya".
It should be about a phrase he is referring to - "Reichman University"
3. Office - As far as I understand, this is just a general title, to enter the current office position. It also does not match what is now appearing "Faction represented in the Knesset". As mentioned, it is not significant and not updated in relation to what is happening as of today.
Thanks Bhbarak (talk) 13:04, 28 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
The changes are visible in this link: [1]; the words "currently chair of its board of directors" were added, while the link IDC link was fixed so it goes directly to Reichman University (the words still appear as IDC because that's what its founding name was).
