[edit] name change

OK, I messed up. I think since this article is about the umbrella organization it should be called HaKibbutz HaDati, not Kibbutz Dati. Please comment. --Shuki 19:55, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be better as Religious Kibbutz Movement, as this is how they call themselves in English on their website? Number 57 09:33, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Absolutely. --Shuki 21:38, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

It was requested that this article be renamed and it was done without a debate --Number 57 14:09, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Movement" or "movement"?

Is "Movement" actually part of a proper name here? If not, it should be changed to a lower-case "m". I honestly have no idea, but I think and hope that this is a non-controversial question that can be addressed and resolved quickly, while the debate about renaming the associated category is taking place. (I've suggested renaming the category to match this article, whereever it might end up.) Xtifr tälk 22:59, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

It's part of the name. Please visit the official website in ex-links. --Shuki 06:40, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
As Shuki says, it is part of the name, and should removed capitalised - it is not a Religious Kibbutz movement, but rather the Religious Kibbutz Movement. Number 57 08:11, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
Seems clear enough, thanks. Xtifr tälk 12:05, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bad Arithmetic

The article currently reads:

"Its membership includes 19 communities, 16 of which function as traditional kibbutzim, while the other two have the status of Moshav Shitufi"

Last I checked, 16+2=18, not 19. Anyways, the list of individual towns lists 3 moshavim, which would solve the riddle. Anyone, if you know the list is correct, care to fix it up?62.219.163.100 (talk) 11:50, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
