Edit warring[edit]

@Number 57: asked me on my talk page to revert my recent edit. I will reply here since this is where the discussion should be. There are other things wrong, the infobox says Israel, the pushpin map is Israel, the Green Line doesn't have a salient. In general I think the edit warring (57 and Dan, outside 24 hours but still edit warring, the other two articles as well that are currently under discussion at Dan's talk page) should stop until we actually do have a "clear consensus".

Again, I request that you undo your edit. There is a clear consensus at Dan's talk page that the description of the site being in the Latrun salient is correct. Number 57 12:46, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I refer you to my comment above. Selfstudier (talk) 12:47, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And I refer you to the talk page where there is a clear consensus that the article should describe the village as being in the salient. Number 57 12:52, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have copied the ongoing discussion from Dan Palraz talk page to the Latrun salient talk page. Selfstudier (talk) 13:06, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Madaba map[edit]

I'm guessing that the reference is to ΕΡΥΤΑ (Eruta? No Kfar, but there seems to be KA and some missing letters) that appears on the west side of Jerusalem. The map is way out of scale and while Kfar Ruth is midway between Jerusalem and the sea, ΕΡΥΤΑ is marked only about 1/10 of the way. So calling it the same place is wishful thinking.

After further investigation, Kafr Rut is identified with Khirbat Kafr Lut (mandate map spelling) which is right beside this place. I'll add a source. Moreover, the missing letters are just enough to spell Capheruta, which is how several sources interpret it. Zerotalk 05:18, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
