The result of the move request was page renamed. Mazel tov on reaching consensus after only three days! — harej ( talk) ( cool!) 00:57, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
Mazal tov → Mazel tov — This page should be moved back to "mazel tov", it is the most common English spelling (Per WP:USEENGLISH), "mazel tov" is found in the dictionary as the primary entry (and the only entry in Merriam-Webster here), whereas "mazal tov" is either not found, or is found as a spelling varient. In addition, it beats 2:1 in Google test. - Epson291 ( talk) 15:57, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Just as a note, "mazel" is Yiddish, "mazal" is Hebrew" (ancient as well as contemporary). Debresser ( talk) 01:17, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
dont get me wrong boys but the whole article stinks its not even clear wether maseltov is good or bad no sources, nothing — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.104.108.244 ( talk) 00:37, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
While it's probably correct that this is a well known Yiddish phrase, I've tagged this up as deducing that from a mention in a Black Eyed Peas video borders on WP:OR/ WP:SYNTH -- 146.115.187.103 ( talk) 02:27, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
I always thought Mazel Tov had a slightly different connotation, that you were acknowledging someone for a good deed. So not just a congratulation, but more a compliment for doing something worthwhile, for being a mensch. Or am I mixing it up with a different phrase? 146.137.70.70 ( talk) 14:35, 3 February 2017 (UTC) Ken
