Talk:Shinui
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I think we could delete the paragraph similar parties. Through the category "Liberal parties in Israel" the page is linked to other liberal parties like the parties mentioned in this paragraph.
[edit] Move from Shinui to Change (Shinui)
I was wondering what the rationale behind moving this page from Shinui was. The Shinui party is almost always referred to by its Hebrew name, Shinui, just as the Likud Party is always referred to as Likud not consolidation which is what the word Likud literally means in Hebrew. Numerous major publications use Shinui in their English versions. Both the Jerusalem Post and Haaretz newspapers, political right and left papers, respectively, use the word Shinui when naming the party:
The official website for the Shinui party says that their name is usually translated as the word change, but sometimes as the word reform, clearly showing that using the word change as a substitute for Shinui is not the standard use.
I strongly believe this article should be moved back to Shinui and unless anyone has serious opposition to it, I will do it soon. Benjamin Goldenberg 03:47, 27 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I have moved the article back to Shinui. Benjamin Goldenberg 07:05, 9 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Missing Transcription Request
Shinui proclaimed itself as defender of political purity and lawful behavior (in Hebrew: טוהר המידות ושלטון החוק ). Could someone please provide a romanized transcription for the Hebrew phrase? Thanks. 200.213.43.30 06:33, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- I deleted the Hebrew. It should not be there. Another user improved the language of the paragraph. gidonb 23:11, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
