[edit] Requests

Geography/Localities

• District of al-Ramla (British Mandate District)
• Khodori Institute and Khadorri College now both redirect to Kadoorie Agricultural High School. However, this is probably not correct! There are (were?) apparently two educational institutions named after Ellis Kadoorie, one next to Kfar Tavor, and one close to/in Tulkarm, where Kadoorie Agricultural High School is the one next to Kfar Tavor, while *Khodori Institute and Khadorri College refer to the one by Tulkarm. Soooo: an article about the school/college by Tulkarm is greatly needed. I would like to start it, but I know absolutely nothing about it, Regards, Huldra (talk) 11:07, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

History

• Qais and Yaman, the two large political parties/movements in 19th and early 20th century in Palestine. See under Husayni and Palestinian_costumes. The Khalidis led the Qais faction and the Husaynis the Yamani faction. In many/most articles on WP Qais and Yaman direct to articles which are hardly relevant! The Arabian tribe the Qais in year 600-700 has not much to do with the Palesinian 19th century political party/movement... An alternative would be to expand the Qais/Yaman articles, to include a section on Palestinian 19.th cent. politics. Regards, Huldra (talk) 07:43, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
