Yokneam is a moshava. Yokneam Illit is a development town. The two are confused in this article. Danny 21:51, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Yokneam photos & review

I recommend that an external link will be added to ttp://www.biblewalks.com/sites/Yokneam.html The site adds many original photos, information, references, which will be useful for the readers. Biblewalks 17:53, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merge from Qira

If there is anything notable about Qira (village) which deserves its own page, it should be added to the page which discuses its current location. (Is there a page on Jerusalem in each and every era? It’s all merged into History of Jerusalem). Chesdovi (talk) 22:05, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

• Merge. Chesdovi (talk) 22:05, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose. There is an entire series on Palestinian destroyed villages. The Qira page already mentions that Yokneam is located on its former lands. Palestinian destroyed villages that have names different to that of the present-day Israeli towns built on their ruins should be discussed separately, though the articles should link to one another.

• Oppose per Tiamut. --Al Ameer son (talk) 20:00, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose per Tiamut. The Palestinian village and the current Israeli city share a physical location, but are fundamentally different in their identities. It's true that major historical cities have gone through several periods, but trying to merge these two articles will cause confusion. Since I'm the third to oppose, and it's been two months, I'll remove the merge proposal, leaving mutual "See also" links in its place. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 03:32, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
