Talk:List of forests in Israel

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Someone knowledgeable on this needs to give the list a once-over and remove the ones that don't belong here, because right now, it lists a lot of recreational sites. If not, I'll just get rid of everything not with the word forest. (Also, List of national parks and nature reserves of Israel already exists.) Any opinions?

I can't find a list in English, so perhaps, I'll just base it off here for now. Epson291 (talk) 17:55, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Issues[edit]

First of all, thank you Epson for creating this article. Sorry for placing an ugly tag on it, but I really believe there are quite a few issues (aside from the one you raised above):

  1. A sortable table format would do much better than the current format
  2. I don't think categorizing forests into north, center and south is proper. These areas of Israel are ill-defined, and I don't believe there's an official authority which says that something is in ther center or the south. I think the categorization should either be by district (simple, although a few forests may be in multiple districts), or geographical regions (Sharon, Shfela, Samaria, etc.) - complicated and could be more ambiguous than the current classification, although technically this is optimal because it's highly relevant to the forest's properties.
  3. In reply to your comments above: generally, I agree. However, using the Hebrew Wiki is IMO wrong, because they don't have list pages there (one of my main issues with HeWiki actually), and thus a category which lacks articles doesn't mean that the article shouldn't be placed there, so you can't know anything for sure. For now, you can go ahead and remove anything which isn't called a forest (יער) in Hebrew.
  4. The links on the page lead nowhere, and the ones that do lead somewhere lead to completely irrelevant pages. This is probably the most important cleanup issue, and should be fixed ASAP.

That's all for now, I will most more issues if I spot them. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 18:12, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned it up a lot. Epson291 (talk) 14:39, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I like your idea of a sortable table, but we would need more information other then just name and region, i.e., dunams/sq. m., year, type of trees, something like that. Epson291 (talk) 17:26, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

definition[edit]

I know that the Israeli government calling those hideous projects “forests”, but actually according to botany designation those are not forests, you cannot designate them as forests. Those are failed projects to plant trees that actually all of them are sick, dry and tons of them are simply dying and falling apart.
