Crappy sources
edit@Pieruto33: Please do not remove good sources and do not insert crappy ones. tgeorgescu (talk) 19:25, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
@Pieruto33: What the heck is wendag.com? It does not remotely look like a WP:RS. And you have replaced Amsterdam University Press with MDPI, which made it to Beall's List. At the same time you have removed fas.harvard.edu and the book of a winner of the Dan David Prize. tgeorgescu (talk) 21:51, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- If it were a bad source, Wikipedia would have warned me before I published my work. These are baseless claims that you're making. Pieruto33 (talk) 21:56, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Pieruto33: Some sources are indeed blacklisted, but not so many as you might think. But wendag.com is on the outskirts of Wikipedia's radar. Or was, till now. tgeorgescu (talk) 22:00, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- The vast majority of bad sources are not blacklisted. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 22:03, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
El is just a general word for any god. Not for the Jewish God.
editEl is being conflated with Yaweh. This is like saying Thor is Yaweh because he's called a god and so is Yaweh. The El page simply doesn't support this reading. El is just a general term for any god. The idea that Yaweh was split from a Cainenite pantheon seems fringe. Especially in light of Jewish distaste for pantheism.

- For us WP:FRINGE is generally speaking defined by WP:CHOPSY. In other words, Yahweh cannibalizing his father El is not fringe, your POV is fringe. tgeorgescu (talk) 14:12, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
- None of this is the subject of the article, and I've removed this stuff from the lead, where it was undue. Iskandar323 (talk) 15:28, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
Proposed section: Evolution into Israelite Religion
editGiven that the Canaanite religious system was subject to a cultural evolution that ultimately resulted in the earliest forms of the Israelite religious system, think there should be a section on this page that covers the elements of this socio-religious transformation in the region. Mistamystery (talk) 21:56, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- If you have any sources that sounds like a great idea, especially since it's so heavily referenced in the bible QueerCB97 (talk) 19:58, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
- Absolutely agree. I don't know how to add it to the page, but a good source is The Early History of God : Yahweh and the Other Deities in Ancient Israel by Mark Smith. 76.113.21.168 (talk) 19:41, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
- Absolutely agree! 45.244.45.47 (talk) 20:45, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

editThe link doesn't work anymore 2A01:CB00:8BDE:6400:9046:F2E9:872E:5097 (talk) 15:57, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
YHWH removed
editDoes anyone knows why YHWH from the list of dieties was removed? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Canaanite_religion&diff=prev&oldid=1220830800 Viceversa r (talk) 20:49, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Probably the typical touchiness. Yahweh worshippers are called different from Canaanites in the canon. I re-added.

Jean Bottéro ref of Eblaite Ya
editI'd like to read this one, can we add a cite to help? Temerarius (talk) 01:36, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
