Your changes to Menachem Mendel of Kotzk edit
Please undo your recent changes to article Menachem Mendel of Kotzk. Listing the doings of his descendants to the 9th generation is not within the scope of Wikipedia. For one thing, their place of study is unlikely to have been published in a source considered reliable for Wikipedia's purposes; see Wikipedia's policies on verifiability and reliable sources. Furthermore, this sort of information does not really add to one's knowledge about the subject of the article; Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Kotzk has hundreds of descendants alive today, and unless they are extremely famous, mention of any one of them borders on trivial. הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) 19:56, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
- ...yet you continue to add the information again. Will you please read the links I gave above, which will give you an idea of what sort of information belongs on Wikipedia, and why the Rebbe of Kotzk's ninth-generation descendants—except if notable in their own right, in which case the connection may be significant, which you would have to demonstrate—are not.
