[edit] Introductory paragraph

I have rewritten the introductory paragraph. The old introductory paragraph was a general introduction, not linked directly to the rest of the article. It was also lifted verbatim from the Star-K web site and a possible copyright violation. --Redaktor 15:17, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Subject

Surely the subject of this article should be Cholov akum (the main concept). The expression cholov Yisroel is relatively recent and is used to indicate that a product does not contain cholov akum.--Redaktor 22:11, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps there be on article on each term: Cholov yisrael, Cholov Akum, and Cholov Stam. On the hebrew wikipedia the article for this subject is Cholov akum [1] with the other terms like cholov Yisrael redirecting to that article. Shlomke 23:18, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

That sounds right. We should do the same here.--Redaktor 15:31, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Chalav Yisrael

The change to 'Sephardic' spelling was made without any discussion. Most of the discussion on this subject is by people who use the Ashkenazi pronunciation,This is borne out by Google test: 25000 hits for Cholov Yisroel v 15800 for Chalav Yisrael. Please revert to the long-standing spelling. --Redaktor 22:48, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
