The articles discuss the same general subject, and are the same also on Hebrew Wikipedia. There's absolutely no reason to have a separate list of defense ministers and a general description of the ministry, unless someone expands either article to a point where it can stand reasonably on its own (no indication that this is going to happen any time soon). —Ynhockey ^(Talk) 06:22, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sort as

• Category:Lists of government ministers of Israel -> Defense. Quacelinz3 (talk) 20:44, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: (or maybe this was already done). It looks like all of the articles in those categories are sorted by the name of the ministry, in this case "Defence" or "Defense". If I am misunderstanding the request, please make the request in the form of "change X to Y" showing the before and after wikicode. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:30, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Compare Ministry of Tourism (Israel). Quacelinz3 (talk) 21:42, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That article appears to sort under "T" in all cases. What is the actual broken thing that you are trying to fix? Please link to a specific page that shows an undesirable result, and describe that result along with what you think it should look like instead. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:52, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, it isn't, see below. Quacelinz3 (talk) 06:05, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I think I have changed the article in the requested way. Thanks for your patience, and please check my work. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:39, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think there should be a literal translation of the minstery name at along side the name this article use more literal translation of ביטחון is security, Defense is הגנה

I have added it to the intro. Cheers, Number 57 18:41, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think the article should be changed due to the fact that Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has been dismissed by the israeli prime minister. Death editor (talk) 20:29, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Remove the name of the "current minister in charge" as he was fired by Prime Minister Netanyahu today. Change it from Yoav Gallant to "Unknown" or "TBA" or "Vacant" or whatever fits Scott the Reporter (talk) 04:41, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

First paragraph has pointed Hebrew with missing letter yodh that is used in Modern Hebrew. משרד הביטחון is what is used by the entity itself and should be added for factual accuracy.

Please change:

Benny Gantz of Blue and White was sworn in on 17 May 2020 as Israel's new Minister of Defense.

Benny Gantz of Blue and White has been the Minister of Defense since 17 May 2020.

He's been in office for nearly four years, so calling him the "new" minister seems a bit outdated. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 03:30, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. Please remove that statement entirely. He left office in 2022, so it duplicates the chart. There might be a good reason for the text to mention when the current minister started, but a blurb about a previous minister is just odd. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 03:53, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a

Not clear? How can I make it more clear? Please remove that statement entirely. You don't need reliable sources to remove content. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 02:56, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
