That said, having looked at the current Hebrew

reading this list,
Shach
and Ovadiah Yoseph made no less outrageous comments
in their time, but
their
articles seem to be far more balanced.
The current article also suffers from all the brouhaha around it. It
has been edited by several new accounts, which are most probably
operated by experienced users whose reaction to the situation is part
encyclopedic, part tongue-in-cheek. Certainly not the right way to
handle it.
Yes, the article is POV and Yitzhak is known for 1) being litigious, and 2)
twisting facts. Rather than simply protecting it, the article should be
stubbed first--I doubt he would have a problem with the current English version
of the article at

now, the Hebrew version is essentially a two-line introduction,
followed by a list of all the controversial statements he made.
