Schick typo edit

Schick, p. 121, writes that this locality is on Socin, p. 153. That is clearly a typo, this place is on Socin, p. 158 (The number of inhabitants, 120 males, is correct) Huldra (talk) 22:43, 13 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

change name of entry edit

The name should be Mukhmas and not Mikhmas, according to Socin, p. 158 and the Arabic vocalization חיים לוי (talk) 08:11, 9 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

How much of the Michmas-article should we re-iterate in this article? edit

We have "Main article: Michmas" link, and I would argue that Michmas-stuff belongs in the Michmas-article, not here. Comments? If others disagree, then I suggest opening a RfC about it, Huldra (talk) 20:14, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Virtually all articles about cities, towns or villages in the Israel/Palestine region which have biblical connections mention that explicitly in the "history" section (or in a dedicated section, usually called "Biblical Connection"). I don't see why Mukhmas should be any different. Tombah (talk) 21:05, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
IFF there is no article about the Biblical place: yes. But it is not usual that we re-iterate content from one article into another article, Huldra (talk) 21:11, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
I agree, we shouldn't re-iterate content from one article into another. Maybe this is not the article to expand on the Battle of Michmash. But in any case, the general, biblical reference must stay. Tombah (talk) 21:25, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Well, the Battle of Michmash has zero non-Biblical sources, and the Michmas-article is also severely lacking in non-Biblical sources. This is Wikipedia, not "Bibliopedia"; the (Hebrew) Bible cannot be used as a source of history here. We link to the Michmas-article here; IMO that is enough.
And instead of edit-warring, I wish you you would spend your time adding academic studies to articles like the two mentioned; Huldra (talk) 22:49, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
