[edit] Edits to Yehud-Monosson

Hi, I noticed you edited several facts in Yehud-Monosson. Regarding the population, you are definitely incorrect, CBS clearly states that the population of the joint municipality was 25.1 thousand at the end of 2004. However, I'm curious about the name. The Hebrew Wikipedia says that it was formerly known as Yehud-Neve Efraim, while CBS still considers the correct name to be Yehud-Neve Efraim. Do you have any basis that it was never known by that name? If so, can you please provide a source? Thanks, Ynhockey (Talk) 21:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

It's probably confusion related to the continuity of Yehud as Yehud-Monosson (de facto Neve Monosson was annexed to Yehud and Yehud changed its name, although de jure under the merger law, the merger was ostensibly neutral). That would mean that the population of Yehud was approx 22,500 on the eve of the merger, because Neve Monosson added approx 2,600. That is strange but there is no point arguing with the CBS and you are correct that this is what should appear in Wikipedia. However, it should be noted that there is large scale construction in Yehud all the time, particularly in and around Savyonim and in the urban renewal projects in old Yehud, and the population has certainly grown since 2004. The second point is rather complicated. Neve Monosson as a physical place on the map (as in bridge, river, etc.) is officially Neve Efraim. But that is only for physical 1:50,000 maps and the CBS which has not yet updated its site. However, its local council was officially named Neve Efraim Monosson (1962-2003). In January 2006, after the local council was merged with the Yehud municipality, the community, within its previous municipal borders, was declared a Borough by the Interior Minister under the name of Neve Monosson, the "Efraim' having been specifically dropped at the request of its reps. That declaration can be seen in Hebrew at [1]. As for the merged city; the 2003 law provided for the Interior Minister to determine the names of all the merged authorities, but that was only done a couple of years later after a consultation process. Meanwhile, all the merged authorities had temporary hyphenated names, and in the case of Yehud-Monosson that name was (mistakenly) Yehud-Neve Efraim (rather than Yehud-Neve Efraim Monosson). Finally, after a long dispute with the purist Names Committee, which adamantly opposed the foreign-sounding name, the city was officially named Yehud-Monosson in late 2005 by the Interior Minister. You can see the declaration in Hebrew at [2]. Monosig 12:41, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
I should add that the Yehud article mentions a higher population according to the 2003 electoral roll. Monosig 13:48, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:TzipiLivni.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:TzipiLivni.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This was re-nominated as it has been 10 days since the tag was removed, but it has not been placed into any article. It is a copyright violation and is not saved by any Fair Use claim as it is not in use.--Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 01:14, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

An image you uploaded, Image:Jerusalem Municipality Emblem.jpg, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 12:00, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
