History of Jews in Poland

Notified Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Jewish history, Portal talk:Poland/Poland-related Misplaced Pages notice board, User:Piotrus and User:Jacurek

Article has several issues and no longer meets the criteria.

  • Length (4): At 94 kB of readable prose it is too long.
  • Lead (2a): The lead is too short for such a long article.
  • Lots of external jumps.
  • In parts a lack of citations (1c).
  • The External Links section needs to be shortened.
  • Inline citations need to be formatted.--Peter Andersen (talk) 19:33, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

When I have written it two years ago I was quite proud of it. Unfortunately today it's not to our standards (lack of inline cites). I will see if I have time to work on this again; I agree with most of the above comments - with the exception of length - we have quite a few FA around that size. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 20:32, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Piotrus, please let me know what can I do as far as improving this page. I would be happy to help bringing this article into the standards. I also agree with you that length of the article is necessary for a reader to have a clear understanding of a complex history of Polish Jews and especially relations of Jewish Poles with their Christian counterparts, which is too difficult to understand without being provided with wider information. There is so much interest in the cultural past among both Poles and Jews and a quality Wiki page regarding the subject is for sure appreciated by all. This project helps so much to combat anti-Polonism found among many Jews and plain stupid anti-Semitism found among many Poles. I have always been amazed at how twisted that history has been.--154.20.146.225 (talk) 05:20, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
