Category talk:Antisemitism
- So are all the subcategories going to have to be renamed now too? I'm sometimes amazed that the absurdity of this place can still surprise me.--T. Anthony 04:40, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
- Apologies, I should have looked this up more thoroughly earlier. On learning more I see that the B'nai B'rith and Simon Wiesenthal Center prefer this spelling. I got thrown off by the statements about "scholarly concensus" which make no sense to me. However the people who have reason to care most about this now predominately use this spelling so I withdraw any complaints. Again, I'm sorry if I'd been insensitive.--T.

Antisemitism template
The Anti-Semitism template is confusing and potentially misleading. Check out for instance the Host desecration page which has the Antisemitism template. It lists organizations and writers such as the Anti-Defamation League, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, Deborah Lipstadt etc who are scholars and organizations involved in COMBATING antisemitism, i.e. they are Anti-anti-Semitism. To include them in the antisemitism template would make an unfamiliar reader think that they ARE anti-semites. It should probably include Anti-Semitic organizations like Neo-Nazis, and people like Hitler, the Protocols of Zion etc instead. Perhaps someone can correct the template to include a clarifying that Jonathan Sacks and Deborah Lipstadt are scholars who are NOT Anti-Semitic...maybe something like Organizations/Writers FIGHTING ANTI-SEMITISM would be more appropriate
