This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Conversion to Judaism page.

The above article lacks notability. There are hundreds of halachic concepts discussed in the Talmud, and not all of them are notable from a secular perspective. Additionally, many translations of the original Aramaic exist, so it is difficult to place those quotes as the definitive translation. Artscroll, for example, tends to use a technical translation that does not stay true to the literal meaning. This last problem could be resolved by adding the original Aramaic phrase above the English translation (which I suggest should be done), but as a whole, I don’t think the article is noteworthy.

  • I have added this page since it is (or will be) a significant list of quotes concerning a significant and contested area of the Jewish world. The quotes are all from significant rabbis across generations. I am happy to leave the message up until I have made a more complete article, so that people can make a more complete judgement call.
