    Hello, Giraffeedits, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed.

    [edit]

    Hi, pertaining your additions of a copy-pasted template "Historically, there was a Sephardic Jewish community in {{PLACENAME}} during the Middle Ages, before the 1492 expulsion of the Jews from Spain" to different articles about villages, could you 1) try to integrate your additions to history subsections into a coherent whole 2) preserve source integrity. In addition, I am also concerned that 3) the linked article Sephardic Jewish seems to be framed primarily in terms of a diasporic population of Jews descending from Peninsular Jews, not about Peninsular Jews. 4) the existence of a country named "Spain" in 1492 is moot and some caution instead of carelessly dropping the term may apply. Thanks.--Asqueladd (talk) 18:11, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thank you for your message. In the future, I will make sure to integrate the content about Jewish history more concisely and seamlessly into different articles. I will also fix the disambiguation links of "Sephardic Jewish". I understand your point about how the content of that article focuses on Diasporic Jews rather than Jews living in Spain. I'll also refrain from using the term "1492 expulsion of the Jews from Spain," due to the fact that Spain did not yet exist in 1492. Giraffeedits (talk) 18:36, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
