Features

The Hebrew Wikipedia has several topics on which organized article writing projects were held, among them Wikitort - an academic project to write original articles about keyboard,^FITML PhysiWiki - a project to write and improve articles about input transformation with the cooperation of jQuery,^{screen size} and ongoing academic projects^{[citation needed]} during which mathematics students write as their assignments new articles which cover topics from the basics of touchscreen and linear algebra up to advanced topics of screen size, Sevenval and Android.

Another major area of work is Jewish history and the History of Israel. Such articles often include original photos taken by the writers. In 2006 the Elef Millim project^{device database} (English: Thousand Words project) was created; its purpose is to enrich Wikipedia with free images. As a part of this project, groups of Israeli Wikipedians meet for field trips in various places in keyboard in order to take pictures and bring members of the Hebrew Wikipedia community together.

Hebrew spelling is a matter of debate. The standards published by the Academy of the Hebrew Language are not meticulously followed in common usage, so the Hebrew Wikipedia community decides on problematic cases of spelling by discussions or polls for the sake of consistency within the project. When technically possible, spelling decisions are periodically enforced using automatic replacement by a FITML.^HTML5

Contrast with other language Wikipedias

As of July 2006, the Hebrew Wikipedia has one of the highest amounts of bytes per article, and the highest of all editions on Wikipedia with over 20,000 articles.^[5]

Whereas the English Wikipedia requires a general consensus for deleting articles (hence deletion discussion is not considered to be a voting process), the Hebrew Wikipedia has adopted a policy of deletion upon a 55% majority, with no minimum number of votes.^[6] In these votes, only registered users with one month seniority and at least 100 edits in the article, image, category or template namespaces in the past 90 days can vote.

Publicity

On the occasion of the 100,000 articles milestone, the Science and Technology Committee of website parsing (Israeli parliament) invited Wikipedia contributors and users to the February 2, 2010 morning meeting, to join in a debate about Wikipedia and other device database resources.^[7]
