Here are some tasks awaiting attention:
- Article requests : Ira the Jairite article Twillisjr (talk) 23:09, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
- Category:Irish people of Jewish descent was deleted July 9th for being empty and useless. I recreated the category with a proper structure and even included content (Bob Geldof for one!). My new category was then subsequently deleted based on the discussion which got the old version deleted. However none the arguements which favoured deletion do not apply to the new version I created. I have been told its a lengthy process to get the category back up even under my new structure. Please can I get support from this WikiProject!! Colt .55 (talk) 19:22, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
- Look, there must be hundreds of "citation needed" signs all over the place which refer to stuff clearly stated in the Talmud(Gemora). Can't anyone see if they can sort them all out??? i'm new here so i don't know if there's a specific list, nut they pop up all over the place - for instance, there's no source for the messiah cited! NOTE: As far as the issur of disseminating the talmud is concerned (which is a legitimate concern for orthodox jews) as far as i know it is the 'learning' of talmud that is ossur, not the teaching of facts.--79.177.58.51 (talk) 13:30, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
- Criticism of Moses: the article could use some counterpoints, like most other criticism articles have in some form or another, as right now it is simply a list of criticisms.-- g.j.g (talk) 21:30, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
- Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: Allegations for his Jewishness are not well sourced and there is a stormy discussion on the aritcle's talk page whether to refer to his alleged Jewish background in the aritcle body. It was previously included in special ethnicity entry in the infobox and in the lead and early life paragraph.--Gilisa (talk) 10:25, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Maimonides : The "Philosophy" paragraph contain correct data but with no citations. It's not too much work I guess.--Gilisa (talk) 16:21, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- The Twelve Spies (or some other name) to deal with the scouts sent by Moses and their significance.
- Book of Ezekiel - Why is there no discussion of some of the most famous and perplexing passages in the entire Hebrew Bible? Ezekiel complained about people burning their children to death. "And you took your sons and your daughters, whom you had borne to me, and these you sacrificed to them to be devoured. Were your harlotries so small a matter that you slaughtered my children and delivered them up as an offering by fire to them?" (Ezek. 16:20-21) The Book of Ezekiel then states that God purposely gave bad laws which discouraged life and, by some interpretations, these laws led the people to believe that they should offer gifts of their first born by fire. This contradicts the text of the Torah as we know it, and all of Jewish and Christian interpretation of it. Nonetheless, Ezekiel talks about this as a point of view apparently accepted as truthful by at least some major segment of the population. See the discussion page for my start on this.
- There are a number of red links at Wikipedia:WikiProject Judaism/Encyclopedic articles, for which apparently there is no article in WP to match a topic in The New Encyclopedia of Judaism (New York University Press, 2002); also, when articles do exist, they may be lacking in Jewish content.
- Collaboration of the week
{{JCOTW}}
This is now stagnant.
- Translate
- Please note that in many instances, projects related to Torah study proceed much faster in Hebrew than in English.
- New projects
- Copyedit
see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Judaism#Rival Biblical views - Cleanup : Cleanup listing for this project is available. See also the list by category, the tool's wiki page and the index of WikiProjects.
- List of minor Old Testament figures, A–K and L–Z is heavily Christian-centric; needs to be improved and expanded, with the Hebrew spelling for each figure.
- All of the individual articles on tractates in the Talmud, such as Gittin and Ketubot (tractate) need to be seriously improved and expanded.
- Jewish mythology - needs to be rewritten to be inline with our other mythology articles.
- Three Oaths - needs a serious cleanup, and should be rewritten with reliable sources, avoiding primary sources and original research (which are currently the main sources used in the article, leading to disagreement in interpretation).
- Square Hebrew: this looks to be in serious need of cleanup and referencing.
- Rebbe#Distinctions between Rebbe and Rav: Extra and missing words and punctuation make the meaning of the section unclear.
- Expand : Yom Ha'atzmaut - quite short for an article of such importance
University of Florida Hillel - One of the most popular student organizations at University of Florida
Wikiversity: School of Jewish Studies. Part of the new open content university, Wikiversity.
Way of the Patriarchs - Bible History, Archaeology and Tourism all from a simple road - Stubs : Category:Judaism stubs, Category:Hebrew Bible stubs, Category:Synagogue stubs

There are a series of standard templates used by WikiProject Judaism listed here.
There are thousands of articles to be written and thousands more to be expanded, wikified, cleaned up, etc. Want to help? Here is a good place to start.
Because of the many perspectives to Jewish thought, as well as unique and different transliterations of Jewish terminology, articles on Judaism and Jews follow a standard manual of style.
WikiProject Judaism maintains a list of good Jewish resources on the Internet where you can get additional information.
There are many categories that all Jewish articles can fit into. Categories help organize articles and allow us to better maintain them.
