## [recensere] "historicus religionis Iudaicae"?

I can't see any evidence of it, on this page or the English one. If he has written on this subject, we'd better cite one of the texts concerned. Andrew Dalby 14:46, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

  What is meant, I think, is that both parents were Jewish people, so at least English wikip. --Alex1011 14:56, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
    Oh, I see. I wondered if that was it. Still, I didn't see anything about his religion on the English page. I'll check again. Andrew Dalby 15:01, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
    I still don't see anything there about his religion. I changed the article to say that both his parents were Jews -- OK? Andrew Dalby 15:19, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

## [recensere] Orthographia nominis

The registrar's error in spelling his name seems a very minor detail -- these things happen often -- so I moved it to a footnote. Hope that's OK. Andrew Dalby 15:01, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

  OK, but: Many would tend to spell Hobsbawn, but now, with Hobsbaum in the background the strange spelling is explained. --Alex1011 18:07, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
    I'm afraid I don't understand this, Alex. Who would tend to spell it "Hobsbawn"? That spelling is not mentioned on the page at all. Andrew Dalby 18:20, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
    Search engines (to avoid hidden advertisement) show quite a lot of "Eric Hobsbawns" who also were born in Alexandria. I myself, of course, always spelled it correctly :-) --Alex1011 19:59, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
      Oh, I see! Yes, the misspellings we find on the Web (always by other people, of course) continually surprise us ... Andrew Dalby 20:24, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

## [recensere] thank you ..

It's exactly what I believed to have written (i.e both his parents were Jews) sorry for my poor Latin.--Massimo Macconi 15:32, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

  No problem, Massimo -- I understand now! I hope what I wrote is aceptable ... Andrew Dalby 16:16, 22 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
