Did you know... that the Bavarian municipality of Hainsfarth once had a population that was almost 40 percent Jewish and still has a Jewish cemetery and synagogue?

Jewish bias

Latest comment: 14 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

The article as it currently exists is heavily biased toward its Jewish history; a more appropriate title of this article might be Judaism in Hainsfarth. Without downplaying the Jewish significance, this article needs to be expanded to describe more about the community as a whole, similar to other location articles. Per various Wikipedia guidelines about communities, it should have the following sections:

Geography
History <- its Jewish history can be included here
Demographics
Education
Industry and commerce
Notable residents

Can someone familiar with this area please expand this article. Thanks. Truthanado (talk) 15:30, 1 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Agreed! What about the 60% who make up the city, Germans? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.12.205.64 (talk) 16:59, 1 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

For almost four years the article had no content except an infobox and one sentence. Now it has considerable content on what makes Hainsfarth, an otherwise completely undistinguished Bavarian village whoes only distinction is to once have held the largest Jewish community in Bavarian Swabia, so unusual. Before, nobody looked at the article twice, now people complain about it! What a crazy place Wikipedia is! Calistemon (talk) 02:59, 2 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

This page was redesigned at the edge.
