... that scholar Christine Hayes' PhD thesis on differences in the Babylonian and Palestinian Talmuds became the impetus for Jacob Neusner's book, Are the Talmuds Interchangeable? Christine Hayes's Blunder? Source: "In 1996, Mr. Neusner published a devastating critique of a doctoral thesis by a young scholar, Christine Hayes. There, for all to see, was "Are the Talmuds Interchangeable? Christine Hayes's Blunder."

5x expanded by Cawhee (talk). Self-nominated at 18:43, 11 May 2020 (UTC).[reply]

@Cawhee: thanks for working on this article about a very impressive scholar. I don't believe it has been expanded 5x per WP:DYKRULES 1b. Could you confirm if I am missing something? Onceinawhile (talk) 17:01, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article was 10,370 prose characters prior to the first of Cawhee's edits, and is now 4,266 prose characters, a decrease in size rather than an expansion. This was in two steps: a cut/rewrite on May 10, and a further expansion on May 17. However, as it says at WP:DYKSG#A4: Fivefold expansion is calculated from the previously existing article, no matter how bad it was (copyvios are an exception), no matter whether you kept any of it and no matter if it were up for deletion. So this cannot qualify as an expansion. If the article should someday become a Good Article, it can be nominated at that time, but it is too large a base to qualify as a 5x expansion. Courtesy ping to Onceinawhile, the original reviewer, who noticed the expansion issue. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:23, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Her own religious views[edit]

I think the article should mention her own religious views;

"Christine Hayes of Yale University is one of the very few and perhaps the most accomplished academic expert in Talmudic literature who was neither born nor raised as a Jew and who, as you will see below, consciously decided not to convert to Judaism."
