Page creation

[edit]

This page was created as a separate page to that of Haredi Judaism. That page deals with the theological and historical aspects of Haredi Judaism as a religious denomination. This page is focused on the sociological aspects of ultra-Orthodox Jews, which are currently the main topics of discussion in the media and public policy.

Similarly, there is a page for Judaism for the religious topics, and a separate page for Jews as a people in the sociological sense.

Proposed move to 'Haredi Jews (Social Group)'

[edit]

Considering the offensive nature of the term 'ultra', and considering that the corresponding article about the religious beliefs is Haredi Judaism, it would be a good idea to rename this page as Haredi Jews (Social Group). --PiMaster3 talk 23:33, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • That seems reasonable. The beginning of the article says "Ultra-Orthodox Jews or Haredim." I believe the latter should be used as the preferred name. Andrew327 05:25, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree Haredi in the title would be better. However, in general, I'm unsure if this as a cultural topic really makes sense as something different from Haredi Judaism, and if we decide that it does, I think it would probably work best under another title entirely.--Pharos (talk) 11:57, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
