[edit]I got here through http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Hebrew_words. "Bimkom" is Hebrew for "in place of". I've never heard of the group the article currently talks about, so, though it probably does exist, it's not well-known enough to be the article's default, the way The United Nations deserve to be the default for UN.

- The organization's chosen name is a word, not an acronym or idiom. The logo (seen on the wesite as only a fair use file is available on the Hebrew WP page) indicates the name is "BIMKOM" rather than the alternative vocalization "BAMAKOM" (meaning "in the place"). There needn't be any more read into it as the website describes its activities relating to locales throughout Israel, with a focus on seeking sectorial equity in building and infrastructure policies. -- Deborahjay (talk) 17:22, 18 June 2025 (UTC)
The external link to NGO Monitor
[edit]Igorp lj, as I said on Talk:House demolition in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict "Furthermore, you did actually use NGO Monitor to dismiss Bimkom here above. Then you went into the article Bimkom and added NGO Monitor's view about them under External links". Would you accept the same but in the opposite way? --IRISZOOM (talk) 00:26, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
- "as I said on Talk:House demolition in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict" too:
- I try to understand your logic:
- you do use your POV's force pushing allowing yourself such "crap" expression as (Undid revision 661751775 by Igorp lj (talk) A crap website like that isn't needed. We don't need to promote them.) :
Bimkom
's web site(erasedby IRISZOOM)
BIMKOM, NGO Monitor, August 20, 2014
- and it's you too who wrotes the following (Undid revision 661800463 by Igorp lj (talk) Sorry but that is just promotional stuff, as I have shown on that talk page. Get consensus to include it.)
- That is, your version of consensus includes only things that coincide with your POV. Any other ones may be erased without consensus.
- Exellent :) --Igorp_lj (talk) 21:44, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
- I did it per WP:BRD. I see no reason to have a fringe website like NGO Monitor, that you used to dismiss Bimkom, in External links. Again, would you accept the same but in the opposite way? Namely, if someone added a source of the same type to NGO Monitor? --IRISZOOM (talk) 02:25, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Missing information|Critics
[edit]I have removed the Template "Missing information|Critics" that was initially placed on 14 May 2015. Such content nor the equivalent template aren't included on the source page in the Hebrew Wikipedia, nor does a web search for this matter yield any relevant information. This is possibly a POV issue as the organization has been described as "left-wing" and is critical of Israeli government policy. It would be arguably more constructive at this point to build the page with information about the organization's past and current activity, with citations from the mainstream press and comparable bodies active in the field of intersectional equity in housing and infrastructure. -- Deborahjay (talk) 11:44, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
