Recent news show that Arad is declining as a city, because of funding problems, and a wave of immigrants without the resources to take care of them from the government. Can anybody verify this?

Though what you've written strikes me as a fair assessment, it is nonetheless a matter of opinion. If you want to add this kind of statement to the article, you should ideally quote some source (such as an op-ed piece) or give statistics to support your claim. --Woggly 07:00, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have been able to take many pictures in Arad on March 5th this year (there are still at least a dozen I haven't uploaded, which I still have to add to the article), but there are still quite a few photos which I forgot to take (or couldn't), and would help this article. They are as follows (off the top of my head):

• View from the industrial zone into the Ne'urim neighborhood
• Buildings of Eshet Lot Artists' Quarter
• The park with the eagles at the entrance to Arad
• Park Arad (Hurshat Ran)
• Any road sign pointing to Arad (preferrably tri-lingual)
• Patios, clearly showing the architecture and planning. The Hebrew wiki kind of has a similar picture, but it's not illustrative enough
• The outdoor swimming pool
• Monument in Gan HaHamisha - I have taken 12 pictures on that site, and none of them are good enough (need to see both the sign and the monument clearly, without the stone structure)
• Any view of the Halamish neighborhood
• Any one (or all) of Arad's medical clinics (Kupot Holim)
• Inside look on the Arad Historical Museum, as well as the Arad Museum (of Art)
• The conservatory (music school), preferrably on the inside (it doesn't look like much on the outside)
• (???) Atarok Amphitheater - not sure what this is, it's perhaps the only place in Arad I've never been to, but it would be interesting if it's really an amphitheater
• The Mega BaIr supermarket and the Paz gas station nearby (interesting architecture)
• Any notable industrial building (don't know much about them, can't remember the area clearly)
• The airfield - no way I'll be able to go there anytime soon
• Tapuah Payis

Kill me, but I still can't understand what a section about synagogues has to do with demographics... -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 15:58, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually probably having a totally unique section is better. Its a tricky one because many articles do have religion statistics in the demography section so, for example, religion is classified here in the Tel Aviv article. Flymeoutofhere (talk) 16:05, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The religious statistics you are talking about are about religious buildups of cities - i.e. percentages per religion, religious faction, etc. The section on this page is completely different. It can be a separate section (as you made it in the Haifa article), but I see nothing wrong with it being under 'services', as I believe the 2 main synagogues in Arad, at least, are state-funded (not 100% sure about this). -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 18:11, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think on reflection it is fine how it is. Flymeoutofhere (talk) 18:14, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A very important source, the Arad Historical Museum, appears to have domain problems, and isn't online. The refs which point to it point to a single page, which can be found here. I hope that the site is back shortly; if not, another source will need to be found, and this will be very hard to do. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 18:09, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, the source is up as of March 18. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 21:34, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of sources, if anyone wants to extract some info from here, it would be very helpful. I will if I have time. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 23:21, 20 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here's another source for Tapuah Payis, a pretty important educational facility. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 20:16, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to add somewhere in the article that Arad received a ration of 3,203,600 cubic meters of water in 2001.[1] Not sure where the right place is. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 22:02, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

•  Done the article still have citation needed tags.
• images are simply dumped even though all are not necessary. it would have been better if you would have simply given a link to wiki commons.
•  Done either expand the Etymology subsection or simply merge it in the introduction. lead is very brief. please expand it.
• in the history section move the images to the left. edit section links is getting misplaced.
•  Done in the geography section. remove the co-ordinates since it is already mentioned above the infobox.
•  Done infobox info. is incomplete.
•  Done oh, one more thing please merge Auxiliary laws in the main section only and please don't make a distinct subsection for it unless it is worth in length.
• i think the above stated reason are enough to with-state that this article currently doesn't meet the GA criteria. thanks, Sushant gupta (talk) 05:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have found 3 refs for the citation needed tags, and removed one of the facts. Are there any more issues? -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 18:51, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

i think the article has surely been improved to a lot extent. thank you, Keep it up! Sushant gupta (talk) 18:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the pass. Cheers! -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 18:59, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What is the source for the list of mayors? I'm asking because Avraham Shochat's MFA site says he was mayor until 1989. -- Nudve (talk) 11:47, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for bringing that up, I don't think there's a single source for the list, which could be a problem for FA. This page has information about the earlier mayors mostly, confirming that Shochat was mayor until 1986. Maybe they made an error though - I'll write them a note. -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 20:08, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps Shochat remained mayor officially, but was in fact already too busy in the Knesset, so his deputy was practically running the town. -- Nudve (talk) 20:21, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's what I thought too. I have sent an e-mail to the museum contact, in hopes that he will clarify the issue, as there's no other way to settle the dispute between conflicting reliable sources (unless more sources are found, which is hard to believe). Of course, if you can find more sources, that would be great! -- Ynhockey ^(Talk) 20:23, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In the lead, it is explicitly stated that there are communities of Bedouins and Black Hebrews, but the Demographics section doesn't seem to mention it. Since the lead is supposed to summarize the article, I think we should incorporate the info into the body as well. Also, if 99.2% of the population is not Bedouin, why mention them in the lead at all? --Al Ameer son (talk) 03:15, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's because there are Bedouin and Black Hebrew communities in the city, so it would be discriminatory not to mention them at all. Unfortunately I don't have sources discussing this stuff in detail, so it's not practical to have it in the main text. It's not really a problem as far as WP:LEAD goes (lots of small statements go in the lead, like common abbreviations which are sometimes contested, without anything being said in the body), but if you have sources on the issue, I'd highly appreciate having a look at them! Thanks, Ynhockey ^(Talk) 03:51, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, I agree with you about the discriminatory thing-if there's a community we should mention them. I still believe it needs to be added to the main body and I might look for a source on that sometime soon, but it won't be easy (I got no clue where to start!). Personally, I think you should nominate this article for FA status soon-it's very informative, comprehensive, and detailed, especially for such a small city. Cheers! --Al Ameer son (talk) 03:57, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Articles that I haven't had time to go over:

• http://www.themarker.com/tmc/article.jhtml?ElementId=is20091008_458758

"The town itself, however, was officially founded in 1962 by a group of young Israelis, most of them ex-kibbutz and ex-moshav members, who were seeking an environment free of the urban ills of overcrowding, traffic, noise, and pollution." - This makes it sound like the town was a private pioneering initiative. In fact it was conceived and planned by the government and the first residents were selected by the government. 'Contrary to other development towns, settlement in Arad was, from the very start, a controlled process.' (Elish Efrat, Arad - A new town in the desert, GEOforum" 18/1974). Zero^talk 04:31, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I wish to insert a panorama of Arad, which, when expanded, can give an overview of the entire city, but Ynhockey argues that the municipality building is better suited. I would suggest moving a view of the city into the lead article image, but including the municipality building within the article itself. The panorama I have is better when expanded, and I think it can do the infobox justice.--RM (Be my friend) 04:52, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Which image are you talking about? So far you have put a very low-quality low-res image of the Ne'urim neighborhood, which is the 2nd oldest in the city and not representative; also, again, it's a very low-quality image that probably shouldn't be displayed on Wikipedia as there are dozens of free images of Arad available, most of them taken by myself. What is the rationale behind putting the image you did in the infobox? —Ynhockey ^(Talk) 00:29, 29 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that somewhere along the way an editor was of the view that "notable residents" lists were a deprecated practice. That view appears to be at odds with wp's overwhelming practice. Other than for Israeli cities, the overwhelming majority of all articles on major cities and U.S. states have either: a) an embedded list of notable persons, where the list is short (see, e.g., Venice#Notable people; or b) a link to a page with a stand-alone list (see, e.g., New Jersey#Notable people). And we have all sorts of guidances/MOS to tell us how those lists should read. The same with nearly all major universities. See Harvard University#Notable people. The same with all dab pages, such as name dab pages. See Sherman (name). The argument posed against having such a list here would apply to the vast majority of the 11,000 notable people lists and 7,000 notable residents lists and 12,000 notable alumni lists (the numbers here may be over-stating it slightly, but I believe are generally in the ballpark), both embedded and stand-alone. We have oodles of of people by nationality, as well. Consensus, as reflected by wide-spread practice, is in favor of such lists, it appears. Accordingly, I will restore the (rather short) such list here, and if editors disagree I invite discussion here. Best.--Epeefleche (talk) 07:04, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the confusion, it was actually a peer review and can be seen here (Dweller is or was very active on FAR and knows this stuff well). There is (generally) no problem with standalone lists because many of them are (according to a major school of thought) meant for navigation, or primarily for navigation, so you can just list just the people who have Wikipedia articles. Even so, some such lists that reach FL or close to FL status get very strict criteria from the editors on who is in and who is out. Also really large lists have been known to be deleted, as in this precedent.

For embedded lists it's a bigger problem. Articles, or parts of them, are not meant for navigation, and listing just people with articles would be against policy. Speaking of which, can you point to the MOS guidelines that you were referring to? I'd be interested to see them. Note that embedded lists are avoided as much as possible in high-quality articles, unless the same thing can't be expressed in prose and is well-formatted (usually in the form of a table). The WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS examples are problematic. The article Venice is nowhere near FA quality, as is the article on Harvard, which incidentally lists its alumni as prose (but if the article got reviewed for GA or FA I'm sure this would still come up). —Ynhockey ^(Talk) 18:11, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Across the project we have tens of thousands of embedded lists. They are used when stand-alone lists would not make sense, because the list is short. Such is the case here. This is a list of one, solitary entry. The consensus across the project is clearly to list notable residents, as reflected in the many thousands of lists. We have an MOS for embedded lists of people, also reflecting that they are appropriate (where short enough) under wp policy. And Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Embedded lists, which though it indicates that often prose will be preferred in an prose article, in some cases embedded lists are appropriate (and it certainly does not call for deletion of the list, in any event, in a case like this). It says in part: "Articles are intended to consist primarily of prose, though they may contain lists.... Lists of links, which are most useful for browsing subject areas, should usually have their own entries: see Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists for detail." But of course, this falls along the guidances that suggest, in cases of short lists like this, they are better embedded (that's in fact why we have an entire guidance on embedded lists; if they were not called for in some cases, we would have no need for a guidance). When this list becomes sufficiently long, it can be made a stand-alone, of course, w/reference in the Arad article. As far as "otherstuff exists", it is perfectly appropriate under the guideline to point to other stuff -- as long as that is not the only reason pointed to. As the guidelines makes clear: "While these comparisons are not a conclusive test, they may form part of a cogent argument; an entire comment should not be dismissed because it includes a comparative statement like this." I invite others to weigh in.--Epeefleche (talk) 22:19, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

One of the main issues here is the quality of the article. What might be fine for a start-class article is not necessarily fine for a peer-reviewed GA (essentially A-class). This was exactly my point about WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS—not that it's an irrelevant argument in general, but that I don't think it's relevant here. If we are to take examples from other articles, they should be ones with some evidence of peer review (i.e. at least GA-class). Just off the top of my head, I would add Lyova Eliav and Beiga Shochat to that list, although they are also notable as council heads. And that's exactly the problem with such a list. We should also add a source to the line about Oz (even though I know it's true). —Ynhockey ^(Talk) 14:21, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that what may be fine for lower-quality article could be different for higher quality articles, as a general proposition. But here we are talking about a practice, supported by massive consensus (tens of thousands of articles), and guidelines. I see no reason to say that the opposite is required for a high quality article. Rather, I take consensus and guidelines to be of some moment. A peer review comment is a comment by a lone editor. The mass of editors who make the guideline and who apply the approach in tens of thousands are of greater weight, IMHO. I've worked on FA and GA articles, and can tell you that individual reviewers are just like you and me -- individual editors, with personal leanings at times that me be against consensus. I think that in this format a list works well, though if you wish to change it to the approach used in the Harvard University article I would have no objection. I'll add the footnote as well as you suggest, and if you like feel free to add the other two people -- there may be more, of course, and if I get a chance I will take a look. Best.--Epeefleche (talk) 16:45, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
