Talk:Bar Kokhba refuge caves

Unsourced ones

Don't know where they were collected from.

NB: Israeli sites primarily go by their Hebrew name, West Bank ones primarily by their Arabic name.

•  'Araq el-Battan in Nahal Shiloh: Google has abs. nothing on it. What is the Arabic name of Nahal Shiloh?
•  Nahal Qidron cave: long wadi starting in Jerusalem, I guess there are many BK caves
• Wadi el-Makkuk (Nahal Makuk) caves: only Arabic name brought up smthg. Arminden (talk) 23:15, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

@Mariamnei: Long enough, new enough. Both hooks check out; my preference is ALT0. Not seeing any copyright concerns. There is, I'm afraid, much to whinge about with this. Several sections comprise of single sentences and these should be expanded. Several sentences also deserve {{cn}} tags and these really need to be cited - and if you're asserting that the expounded-upon caves are Examples, then you'd better have a good reason why this meets WP:DYKCOMPLETE. A copyedit wouldn't go amiss either.--Launchballer 12:14, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
