Anonymous references
Adamsa123, hi. You might not have the answer, but I see it was you who added the following references in Dec. 2016 (here):
- Harvcoltxt|Dolgopolsky|1999 and
- Harvcoltxt|Blau|2010.
The Harvcoltxt template only works if the book details are added at least once, which is missing, so they lead to nothing. I have tried to figure them out: Dolgopolsky +1999 seems to have only one matching publication (From Proto-Semitic to Hebrew: Phonology: etymological approach in a Hamito-Semitic perspective). Blau + 1999 is a bit more confusing, as you have used a ref name, bbgd, which is not the abbrev. of his only 2010 book title I could find (Phonology and Morphology of Biblical Hebrew: An Introduction). Could you please see if I got your references right? Please also note that neither can be accessed online, so that one needs to take your word on it, which I'm sorry to say is never a good option, even without the template glitch. Maybe you can find other sources for the topic, which can be reached online? Thank you. Arminden (talk) 17:11, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
Nonsense from the very start?
"Historically, it is regarded as the language of the Israelites, Judeans and their ancestors."
So "Israelites, Judeans and their ancestors"? Weren't the Israelites the ancestors of the Judeans? And which known (?!) ancestors of the Israelites are known to have spoken Hebrew? Serious nonsense, please clarify. Arminden (talk) 17:32, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
"Israelites" became "Israelites and their ancestors" here, in 2012, an edit made by the anonymous "80.3.238.120", who is/are apparently not the most appreciated editor/s (see User_talk:64.56.88.246).
Another anonymous somebody, "80.3.238.120", added the Judaeans to the mix here, in September 2020. Please feel free to explain. Arminden (talk) 17:55, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
