Request Edit - CC-BY English Text

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Sefaria has English translation of this text, presented in parallel to the original.

We have both:

Midrash Tanhuma-Yelammedenu, translated by Samuel A. Berman,
and Midrash Tanhuma - Buber, translated by John T. Townsend

Both were published by Ktav, and released into the commons with a CC-BY license in exchange for Sefaria compensating the publisher.

I believe that a link to this would fall under section 2 of WP:ELYES.

I have a COI (I work for Sefaria). I have discussed it on WikiProject:Judaism and it has been adjudicated and resolved favorably atCOIN#Sefaria_requested_edits.

Links should probably be to both Midrash Tanchuma and Midrash Tanchuma - Buber

Since Altamel has answered your requests before, I believe it would be best for them to answer this one too. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 16:24, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

LevEliezer, are there any posts on Sefaria about Ktav releasing the books? I found a similar announcement for Talk:Sefer ha-Ikkarim, and thought it would be useful to leave a note for posterity. Altamel (talk) 23:29, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Altamel, your question makes me realize that we don't have an announcement. We should. The best I found was a recent note saying that we put it up, but not that Ktav released it. Let me see if I can remedy that. LevEliezer (talk) 12:32, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Midrash Tanhuma. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

I'm going to re-open this. There was support for the change, but Altamel wanted to have some backing that Ktav released these versions into the commons. They did, and I have legal documents that attest to that, but it wasn't reported onlne. Unfortunately, in the back-and-forth, this request wasn't implemented.

Still - the English language texts are up on Sefaria, and Wikipedia users could benefit from having them linked from this article.

Links should be to both Midrash Tanchuma and Midrash Tanchuma - Buber , as they are both quite relevant, and different from each other.
