This page says Alberstein was born in 1947 within the article, but the article is also in the "1949 Births" category. Which is correct? 72.201.77.179 08:45, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article structure

This article is seriously unbalanced. I don't think I have seen such a long discography in any other Wikipedia article -- well over 100 lines, with fewer than 10 lines of biography. The text does little to illustrate her cultural importance in Israel, and does not even mention her (sometimes controversial) political activity.

I suggest that we remove the discography to a separate article, and entirely rewrite the article from scratch. There is a good article on Hebrew Wikipedia which could help; though it looks as though most of the articles in other European languages are copied from this poor English one. Any comments before I start? RolandR (talk) 12:49, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
