parts ofthis have obviously been copied from a book and not edited well, and the list of cities with synagouges is so small it implies there are very few synagouges in the united states and around the worlds

[edit] Synagogues around the world

This is a horrible section. You have cities listed and, well that's just useless. There is a synagogue in Newark, Delaware but it's incredibly non-notable... and there is also Arkansas listed. That's a whole state. That section (esecially) and this article (generally) need a lot of work... which is something I'm not really qualified to do... it would be great, however, to find good images for each of the notable sites. gren 20:43, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, it was terrible - taken from the Jewish Encylcopedia, where it was actually a listing of related articles with no other relevance. I have tried to rewrite.

[edit] Notable synagogues missing

The quotation of the influence of Moorish architecture was not exact. I have changed it. Other question: an article about synagogue architecture that doesn`t quotate Frank Lloyd Wright´s synagogue at Elkins Park, or the baroque interventions of Baldasare Longhena at the synagogues of Venice has much to work to be done.
