Antisemitic garbage

Whats the purpose of this article. It was quoted by some skinhead!--Temoni prince 01:19, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

:The purpose of this article is the same as Christianity and slavery and Islam and slavery, namely to provide neutral information regarding a religious group's relationship with the institution of slavery.Bless sins (talk) 02:20, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the purpose of this article is more historical than religious. The articles Christianity and slavery and Islam and slavery deal with the religions more than history.Bless sins (talk) 06:00, 24 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The purpose is to create a factual article on a historical subject. Atari400 07:14, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Atari400's concerns

It seems that several editors agree that the article should be moved to a new title, "Jews and slave trade" because it reflect the content of the article better than the current title. Atari seems to have some objections regarding this move, but without explaining his reasons. Could you please mention you concerns here Atari400? -- Karl Meier (talk) 12:19, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is no need for that. Since there exists an article entitled the Arab slave trade, the precedent has been set for such naming patterns. Atari400 07:14, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The roles played by the ethnic groups are different, so your analogy needs more work. Arrow740 (talk) 10:33, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't make any sense. Atari400 16:52, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
