[edit] Date of move to NYC

I made an anon change from 1935 to 1937. This was made without edit sum or comment so I favor the status quo.

[edit] Reference by Last Name

I think that it is disrespectful to call him by his last name. --Ezra Wax 02:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Honorifics added. -- Avi 14:56, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notable rulings

Greetings. Has there been any effort to recap some of Reb Moshe's most innovative or controversial rulings? If not, would anybody object to such an effort? Perhaps folks can help put together a list of notable rulings and some outside sources. For this purpose, I'm guessing that reliable sources would include Jewish press or halakhic journal articles, though as usual mainstream academic and news sources would be better. Hmmm, to be a bit bolder, maybe I'll just start a list on the article itself, for folks to rip apart revise and expand. Thanks! HG | Talk 03:03, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, started the list w/some references. Please don't delete items that still lack a reference, send me a msg and maybe we can track them down. Anybody want to summarize the key rulings? HG | Talk 03:50, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
