POV

very pov article. every sentence is just gushing with praise for israeli technology.

But is that not what this article is about.

• Indeed, comparing to Science and technology in China or Brazilian science and technology, this is pretty gushy. Probably the best thing to do is instead of saying, "Israel has a high reputation in..." is to actually list specific contributions or elements which contribute to its reputation. Alternatively, we could find surveys which rank the top countries with regard to innovation in certain fields, or more concretely, top institutions, and say specifically where Israel falls in the rankings, rather than using vague and somewhat subjective superlatives. -- Beland 02:23, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

the full list of contributions cannot be listed, and listing the major ones is problematic as you have to choose what a major invention is. i beleive the correct aproach whould be statistics, comparison, and maybe one or two examples.

Specific Statistic

I remember seeing an article in the Times that talked about research around the world, they had a bar graph that said that Israel is #1 technology exporting per capita country in the world. This was now a couple of years ago, but I think we should write in the article that in that particular year, Israel was #1 research per capita exporting. Does anyone know where to find that Times article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JanTervel (talk • contribs) 06:55, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Lists

I'm not sure this article should be bogged down with lists of companies. Better to have links to the articles about these companies in the body of the text, explaining their contribution. Any thoughts?--Gilabrand (talk) 07:27, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Agree. Let's mention the companies in the relevant sections in the text and delete them from the lists so that the lists can be eliminated. -- Chefallen (talk) 07:42, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
