Okay, since discussion seems to have been exhausted and 7 or 8 people are in favor and 1 against, can User:IsraBot on both en.wikipedia and he.wikipedia be given bot status? I should get a chance to start it running tomorrow evening.
I wonder if you could post for us, here or (preferably) on the wiki somewhere, the template you plan to use? This would be helpful in trying to find some common ground, if possible, with even Stevertigo.
The potentially controversial tidbit in all this would be exactly how you link to an explanation of where the numbers come from, I guess.
Stevertigo would like for you to say "These are politicized numbers from the murderous apartheid Jews". But that isn't NPOV. :-)
Others might argue, though, and legitimately, that the exact wording that you do choose should not inappropriately legitimize or validate the statistics beyond a level that would be uncontroversially accepted by reasonable partisans.
