The translation of Lev. 11:20-23 is inaccurate. Check Wikisource or Biblerulez.com for a list of correct translations. 71.174.111.205 ( talk) 13:15, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
Four varieties are considered by all to be permissible. It is not the permissibility of four varieties but the identity of these four varieties that is in question. As it stands, it suggests that some deny that the Torah permits any locusts at all. DRosenbach ( Talk | Contribs) 19:10, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

The article says currently: "The Halachah regarding locusts, and all kosher animals for that matter,[citation needed] is that one is allowed to eat a specific type of animal only if there is a "continuous tradition", also known as a "mesora", that affirms that it is kosher." I think "all kosher animals" should be changed to "all kosher birds." Do other animals need a tradition? Isn't it sufficient to apply the rules of kashrut (e.g., fins and scales for fish)?

For those looking for the reference cited, it is in Hebrew: See Hebrew University Library. The Book in Hebrew is called Halichot Teiman = הליכות תימן. If you click מידע מפורט it will open a new window and give more precise details about the book, also in English. Cheers. Davidbena ( talk) 15:13, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the requested quotations, Davidbena! [3] [4] I've still got a couple of questions, though:
Thanks a lot, Davidbena! Keep up the good work! :-) Jayaguru-Shishya ( talk) 17:57, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
Hi User:Jayaguru-Shishya I'm questioning your methodology. Why on earth did you remove a totally valid source that I added on this article ? The source is the following : Valensi, Lucette; Udovitch, Abraham L. (1984). Juifs en terre d'islam : les communautés de Djerba. Archives contemporaines. p. 18. ISBN 2-903928-05-3. I added it after reading the book years ago, it's an authoritative work on Djerba's Jews that I heavily used to write the French article on the fr:Histoire des Juifs à Djerba. It really saddens me to see my contribution destroyed for a reason I honestly fail to understand. Regards.-- Kimdime ( talk) 10:44, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
Greetings!
I was recently glancing through the article when I noticed that the section How and by whom Kosher locusts were eaten completely resorts to two sources, Aruch HaShulchan, and Shemot Rabba. First of all, there are no full citation provided for either one of them; just a vague reference to a primary source. Second, indeed, both are primary sources ( WP:PRIMARY). I've already asked Yesman — the user who added the content — to help to provide full citations for the primary sources added (this would be a good first step). [6] Furthermore, I have asked for his help in order to find reliable WP:SECONDARY sources to back-up the information.
Searching information around Jewish primary sources isn't really one of my strenghts, so I'd greatly appreciate the help of any user more capable! :-)

Kosher locust →
Kosher locusts – More grammatical. Not only are multiple locusts, but multiple types of locusts, kosher.
