[edit] golem

Hi Derwig, I see you changed everything to Golem - may I ask what your source is? Some municipal site? Nobody has ever called it that in all the years of its existence. It is always called the Mifletzet, the park is Gan Hamifleztet, even if there's a sign calling in Rabinovich park (if you asked anyone where that was, they'd give you a blank stare LOL. --Gilabrand 13:08, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Hi Gila. I was surprised to find out that the "official" name of the sculpture is The Golem. I have lived in Kiryat HaYovel for several years, and I too never heard that name. However, all the sources I have looked at, including the municipal site cited as reference #4, Niki de Saint Phalle wikipedia article, Hebrew Kiryat HaYovel wikipage he:קריית יובל, and various other websites [1], [2] have all called it Golem. I think that name should appear in an encyclopedia article, with a mention of the more common name. Shana Tova, Derwig 08:19, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
