Rabbi Yerushalmi[edit]

The article incorrectly linked to the twentieth century historian Yerushalmi, when it says that it is referencing a sixteenth century rabbi. Obviously they should not be linked together since there is a few centuries separating the two Yerushalmis.Akiva100 (talk) 21:30, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Cultural Reference Section[edit]

The image on Decemberunderground by AFI might actually be an homage to the three hares (since it does have three hares running in a circle); unfortunately, the AFI album cover doesn't have the important aspect of the three hares' ears being made up of ony 3 actual ears in a triangle -- it just has hares running in a circle. Further, there is no mention of the image being an homage by the band. I'm removing the section until someone can get some citations or something for it. 74.134.228.189 01:09, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm removing this section... again. Not attempting to start a revert war or anything, but next time you revert me, please take the time to read the rationale for removing the section, and then respond to it. Thanks 74.134.228.189 01:49, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Hares.jpg[edit]

Image:Hares.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Still looking[edit]

for a source or two. No luck yet. Carptrash (talk) 16:45, 30 January 2010 (UTC)).[reply]

This article needs separate sections[edit]

Either geographically (Europe, Asia, Middle East) or by religion.) We have almost totally ignored Buddhist and Asian influences and discussion or the symbols meaning from their perspective.[1] 7&6=thirteen (talk) 16:09, 31 January 2010 (UTC) Stan[reply]

A separate section on Islam would be good. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 10:52, 16 June 2010 (UTC) Stan[reply]
Maybe. I would be somewhat surprised if it were found in mosques in Arab lands, and the map shows only a few dots there... AnonMoos (talk) 13:26, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not mosques. But silks, coins, reliquaries and metal objects according to some of the sources. The map is incomplete. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 13:40, 16 June 2010 (UTC) Stan[reply]
Not my map. I take neither credit nor blame, although I think it a good beginning. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 14:55, 16 June 2010 (UTC) Stan[reply]

I note particularly that the Polish mosques and the Ukrainian Galician headstones don't seem to be represented in the map. 7&6=thirteen () 00:40, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notes[edit]

further reading[edit]

The last entry in the further reading section looks strange. It reads "Xizang Zizhiqu (1991) wenwu guanli weiyuanhui. Guge gucheng (The Site of the Ancient Guge Kingdom)". My Chinese is not very good, but according to mdbg.org, the "wenwu guanli weiyuanhui" probably means something like "archeological committee" or "archeological bureau" (文物管理委员会?) and so the more logical name for the editor would be "Xizang Zizhiqu wenwu guanli weiyuanhui", i.e. "Tibetan archeological committee". The Chinese title is probably just "Guge gucheng" (something like "Ancient town Guge").

I guess it would help if some Chinese speaker would have a look over the further reading section. Yaan (talk) 10:34, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article rating[edit]

I understand the "stub" and "start" ratings if one looks at separate portions (e.g., China) in a myopic sense. However, the overall quaity of article is far better on the subject of "Three hares" than anything on the internet or in print. It pulls together all of the available sources and materials, gives references in the appropriate format, points researchers in the right direction should they want to pursue it further. This is a source of frustration for editors, or at least for me: Wikipedia seemingly does not know good content even when confronted by it, or how to give it recognition. The persons who are doing the ratings apparently know little or nothing about the subject matter, and won't let the overall treatment or sourcing, etc. actually affect a rating. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 16:59, 28 January 2011 (UTC) Stan[reply]

I've waited three years for someone to address the rating, and I am guessing it won't spontaneously happen. I changed this to a "C" for quality, which IMHO still underrates it. If there is a differing opinion — one way or the other — have at it. 7&6=thirteen () 19:29, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Symmetry[edit]

Yin yang whorl), it has a threefold rotational symmetry. 

The yin yang has rotational symmetry 2 not 3. 91.125.52.238 (talk) 20:46, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Three hares of Stonehenge[edit]

"Three hares of Stonehenge" (video). 2007. Retrieved December 10, 2013. Not really encyclopedic, so I didn't put it in the article. But great fun in a significant place. 7&6=thirteen () 19:44, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting triptych of wolves. 7&6=thirteen () 22:30, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

European churches[edit]

It is currently written that "The motif of the three hares is used in a number of medieval European churches, particularly in France (e.g., in the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière in Lyon)." However, Notre-Dame de Fourvière is not a medieval church as it was built in the 19th ct. (what is more, in an architecural style that did not exist in medieval France). Thus, the sentence may be formulated in another way to be clearer. Leo.hoerter (talk) 08:46, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Leo.hoerter Good catch. Fix it. 7&6=thirteen () 13:49, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
