Reliability of a Hebrew Source

User:Avraham, Wikipedia is in dire need of your service. A question was raised on the Talk-Page of Talk:Operation Ha-Har#Heally Gross (author) about the reliability of these two sources, written by the Israeli author Heally Gross [Heb. היאלי גרוס]:.

  • Adullam: `veshavu banim ligevulam`, Jerusalem 2014 (Hebrew) [Hebrew title: עדולם: ושבו בנים לגבולם].
  • Adamah Ahuvah, Jerusalem 2013 (Hebrew) [Hebrew title: אדמה אהובה].

The books are available in most Israeli libraries. The reason for this inquiry is because of an editor's concern that they may not be reliable sources. I submitted a request at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard for their confirmation, but since it is doubtful if they would have access to books published in Hebrew in Israel. Perhaps you can allay all fears by either arguing for or against these books used as sources, based on your knowledge of them.Davidbena (talk) 04:10, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

If they can be easily obtained, they shjould be OK, but we do prefer English-language sources if we can get them. See WP:V and WP:NONENG. -- Avi (talk) 17:07, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
