Partnership minyan

Could you provide a source that many liberal Jews object to partnership minyanim? From WP Policy Citing sources

The need for citations is especially important when writing about opinions held on a particular issue. Avoid weasel words such as, "Some people say…" Instead, make your writing verifiable: find a specific person or group who holds that opinion, mention them by name, and give a citation to a reputable publication in which they express that opinion. Remember that Wikipedia is not a place for expressing your own opinions or for original research.

If you read through the talk:Partnership minyan page, you'll see that we went through a similar process for this page when some folks on Orthodoxy's right wing expressed some very strong but unsourced views. Gotta be fair here.

As an FYI, there seem to be a lot of people who may have a different theoretically orientation who nonetheless find the partnership minyan concept to their liking, e.g. (search for Shira Hadasha):

Hebrew spelling of minyan.

Can't believe I misspelled minyan. All I can say is "oops," and THANKS for the correction! :) NearTheZoo (talk) 23:27, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Photos for independent minyanim article.

Mahrabu, You may have noticed that the only two photos I was able to use for the article on independent minyanim were from two in the Washington, D.C. area. Since it is obvious you are knowledgeable, and perhaps experienced, when it comes to these minyanim, I'd like to ask that you consider uploading and using some others -- especially from minyanim like Hadar and Shira Hadasha that are explicitly mentioned in the article. Thanks! NearTheZoo (talk) 16:46, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

The Yankles

Mahrabu, you and I had extensive discussions over elements in the article I created regarding the independent minyan phenomenon, and you helped improve the article a great deal through those discussions. Now I'm writing this note just to let you know I created a short article on the movie "The Yankles," and if you have not heard of this movie you might enjoy looking at one of the trailers I included among the external links! It might not be the best movie in the world, but it made me smile, and it is very respectful to Jews and Judaism, even if it might not bat 1000 when it comes to every Jewish observance it mentions! Best wishes! NearTheZoo (talk) 14:20, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Presidential line of succession

You took numbers away from people who had been arbitrarily designated as ineligible in an inconsistent fashion.As it is,some acting officials are shown as eligible and others,citizens or not,aren't...but I see no legal basis for treating Thomas Shannon and Adam Szubin differently,which you intensified with your edit.--L.E./12.144.5.2 (talk) 23:28, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

The distinction (which I didn't originate, but took from the rest of the article) is between acting officers who were confirmed by the Senate to their current positions (deputy secretary, etc.) and those who weren't.

When you feel the article is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. lovkal (talk) 18:18, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Yeshiva Week

Hello, Mahrabu. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Yeshiva Week".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Masum Reza^📞 21:06, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
