[edit] Date notation

Would there be any objections to move from Christian-centric BC/AD to neutral BCE/CE? ←Humus sapiens ну? 11:06, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

There shouldn't be. It's entirely appropriate. Be bold. --Dweller 14:45, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
It is a good idea to acquire consensus first: see WP:MOSDATE. Thanks. ←Humus sapiens ну? 01:13, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion

Yochanan Ben Zakkai is one of the most important sages in Jewish History and his article merits much more information. I think we need to add a section about the famous account in the Talmud about his faking his own death in order to ask Vespasian for Yavneh. Anyone want to make this article a collaboration project?--Valley2city₪‽ 17:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
