[edit] Article to be translated (Hebrew:English)

I've noted that this article in its present form was translated from the German Wikipedia version. As the English, German, and French articles are quite brief (and two other language versions are stubs), I'm translating the more extensive Hebrew article into English. I'll take care to retain content from the first English version here, and will support my translation with library research (referencing the Encyclopaedia Judaica and Encyclopaedia of the Holocaust).

Also, I advocate Yiddish:English transcription (e.g. of a poem's title) per YIVO, rather than German orthography as in the present article. Deborahjay 04:34, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

NOTE: Having noted no response meanwhile, I've gone ahead and made the latter change to the text. Deborahjay 17:24, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Suggesting article name change

The article's subject's name is spelled Itzhak Katzenelson in two major English-language reference works:
"Encyclopaedia Judaica" (Jerusalem: Keter Publishing, 1972)
"Encyclopaedia of the Holocaust" (New York: MacMillan, 1990), a tandem edition to the Hebrew "Ha-entsiklopedia shel ha-Shoah", ed. Israel Gutman, published by Yad Vashem that same year.

The present spelling of the article's name appears incorrect to me; what is its basis?
I suggest changing it (as above) and creating the necessary redirects from variant spellings. Deborahjay

Update: Rename to surname spelling Katzenelson done (per move on June 20, 2006; redirect links repaired. -- Deborahjay 20:45, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Done. I'll take care of revising piped links and redirects. -- Deborahjay 10:48, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] There is another Yitzhak Katznelson

I wanted to write an article on Yitzhak Katznelson the mathematician. I was very surprised there was already an article under that name. I have set things up so that Katznelson and Katzenelson are two different articles, with a note at the top of each directing to the other. Should we have a disambiguation page?

CarlFeynman 19:29, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Ofcourse not! Yitzhak Katznelson the poet should be the first resault when looking for Yitzhak Katzenelson! Ask any infant in Israel, he will tell you who the poet was - many great institutes and streets are named after him in Israel! And on the mathematician - only other mathematicians know about! I think it boarders volgarity to top the mathematician over the poet! (-- This unsigned comment was added by 217.132.68.126 on 22 December 2006)

A careful look at the spellings will show that their names are no longer identical, now that this page has been moved to Itzhak Katzenelson to conform with the canonical spelling of the poet's name in prominent English-language sources. Based on the likelihood of confusion, I support the continued maintenance of a disambiguation page. -- Deborahjay 15:49, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
