new edit inserted March 6 by 62.0.91.31 that needs to be wikified:
When the people of Israel made their historic march out of Egypt, through the desert, and to Mount Sinai, their ultimate goal was to re-enter the Land of Israel. After the famous battle of Jericho, they ascended the ridge of hills, and began the establishment of the Jewish Nation, no longer just a small family tribe they had been when they left hundreds of years earlier. The place they set up their poltical, religious, and cultural center, for 369 years, was Shilo.
While eventually the Tabernacle, and all the items connected to the center of prayer, were headed for Jerusalem, in the meantime the city of Shilo was where it was at. The story of Hana praying for a son is the basis for several ideas of prayer which Jews use to this day. Leaving from Shilo, against the injunction of the priests, the tablets from Sinai were lost to the Philistines. It seems Shilo didn't have a large permanent population, but rather was the place the nation gathered three times a year, Pesach (Passover{, Succot (Feast of Booths), and Shavuot. It is even physically similar to Jerusalem, a hilltop, surrounded by higher hills.
Shilo lay desolate for nearly 2000 years. Yet the Tel was known, and even visited by minor archeological expeditions in the last 100 years.
After the land was recaptured by the reborn State of Israel in the Six-Day War of 1967, Jews began returning to their ancient sites. On Tu B'Shvat, 5739 (1979), nine families moved into temporary homes at the foot of Tel Shilo. The community has grown, and a visit to the site www.shilo.org.il is almost as good as a visit to the community itself. Today over 200 families make up a flourishing, and still growing community, dedicated to rediscovering what it means to live as a Jew in a country of Jews. Agriculture, Industry, and Education flourish in the light of the yeshiva that has been a part of Shilo from its second year. The re-integration of Tora into the life of the nation has proven to be a slow and diffucult road, but the incredible warmth of the community helps it to continue to move forward towards our goal, exprossing God's will through our lives.
As the Jewish People continues, apparently one country at a time, the ingathering of the exiles, Shilo continues to absorb jews from all nations. Mixing with the young generation which is both growing from within (already 6 marriages of Shilo youth to Shilo youth) and from people drawn from across the country, helps to create an atmosphere of cross-pollination, fertile thought and life. Many families are large in Shilo, and it feels like a world of children sometimes.
God willing, we will continue to build a better world than that which we have seen until now.

Yishuv - it takes a village
The word "yishuv" as it was used in this entry, is contemporary Heblish, and has nothing to do with the meaning of "Yishuv" as appears in the Wikipedia entry.
The "yishuv" entry is a proper noun, and should really be "The Yishuv", with definite article and capital, if at all. See, for example, how "The Bund" appears under "General Jewish Labor Union".
The way "yishuv" is used today in modern Hebrew/Heblish, and the way it was used in the entry previously, it is just another word for settlement/village. There are enough words in English for that.
For the sake of better hasbara, we should employ proper English to describe a yishuv in the sense of a community in eretz yisrael. I had shown this entry to a non-Jewish, non-Hebrew speaker friend of mine. He read it and asked me what it meant. The English Wikipedia is meant to contain exclusively words of the English vocabulary, though a parallel Heblish wikipedia might davka be interesting.

- Nu? For what does a man want to do "hasbarah" on wikipedia.
- Seriously, wikipedia is supposed to be an encyclopedia. Hasborah is innapropriate here. (For those not in the know, Hasborah is Israeli Hebrew for propaganda.) 88.153.0.6 17:16, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- Dear anonymous
- firstly, if you had sincerely meant to clarify the meaning of the phrase Hasbara, you'd have just wikified it instead of presenting an opinionated take on it.
- second, my posting was directed to "specific listeners". my error to have posted it as i did, and here. constructive wikipeds can glean from my posting helpful tips about Hebrew, instead of "picking at the nits".
- third, there's a bit of propaganda in every wikiped. each and every one of us participants have topics we love and entries on our "watchlist". it's human nature, and therefore normal. we write in objective tone, but no human should be so presumptuous as to suppose he's above bias. wikipedia's virtue is in the collaborated efforts of everyone as well as its inevitable, positive, mutual balance.

Fair use rationale for Image:Shilo emblem.jpg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Shilo emblem.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 insure 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Revenant rights
This article talks of "revenant rights", which sounds like some sort of legal theory. But in Google searches (including Scholar and Books), I can't find any references to this term except a few referring specifically to Shilo. Is there a more standard name for this legal theory? --Macrakis (talk) 18:37, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
Legality
Regarding this edit that removed the standard legality statement from the lead. I assume the edit summary "theres no historical or any other typical encyclopedic material in lede. expand lede and reinsert" is a request to add other information to the lead before restoring the legality statement and that the absence of this undefined information has been used to justify the removal of existing content. I don't think that makes sense. The due weight associated with this issue evident from reliable sources and the presence of the legality statement that follows from it isn't dependent on the presence or absence of other undefined and unrelated content. The article can easily be expanded with further information and statements about this issue, content that is typical of the coverage of this specific settlement by reliable sources, so that the contents of the article more accurately reflects the actual coverage by RS.
