Red links[edit]

I checked all the red links against the corresponding page in the Hebrew Wikipedia and made five corrections. As of this date, all remaining red links do not have a page that I could find in the English Wikipedia. -- Deborahjay 10:02, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong title; entire literature calls them "Tower and stockade"[edit]

It's probably a Google Translate mishap (lit. translation from Hebrew "homa ve-migdal"). A change is needed, no doubt.Arminden (talk) 22:46, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unidentified fortress[edit]

I can’t identify this fort. The caption mentions Nahalin & Ussishkin D. Hebrew wiki gives Ussishkin B’s history, founded by Hapoel HaMizrachi. It doesn’t appear to be on the list with this article. Is it the late date - 1940? Or that it wasn’t mainstream?

There are two other forts recorded as built in 1940 described as Ussishkin Fortresses: She‘ar Yashuv and Beit Hillel. Neither mention Hapoel HaMirachi in their articles so I think they must be different. Also the D in the caption suggests there were four Ussishkin Fortresses. The Dafna article says it was the first.

Land purchased or squatting?[edit]

I am having difficulty reconciling the sentence ‘these settlements provided safe havens on land that had been officially purchased by the KKL-JNF,’ with ‘The reason given for "squatting" was that the leased area needed close protection during the "disturbances"’. Which is sourced from Yigal Allon’s biography in the Ginosar article. Padres Hana (talk) 12:20, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
