Neve Ya'aqov is part of the East Jerusalem territory that Israel has effectively annexed following the Six-Day war. Since this annexation is not recognized internationally, the status of these parts is the same as the rest of the West Bank. Therefore, Neve Ya'aqov is considered by international bodies, as well as by some Israelis, as settlements. This subject is covered in the Israeli settlement article, if the relevant sentence in this article is disputed, I suggest discussing this first in that article's talk page.-- Doron 08:10, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
The most common spelling is Neveh Yaakov, not Neve Ya'aqov. It is unnecessary and confusing for the reader to write the ' in Ya'akov, and the Q for the ק has almost universally been replaced with a K. Thus, I will change Ya'aqov to Yaakov. If anyone objects, please discuss here or contact me through my talk page. Note that Google gives 434 results for "Neve Ya'aqov" and 19,700 results for "Neveh Yaakov", which proves the commonality of the latter spelling. -- Daniel575 23:34, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Funnily enough, the only two sources listed for this page call it a settlement. So why is it only a settlement according to 'some' sources. Granted, not all sources will call it a settlement, as this term is disputed by Israel. But the vast majority of sources refer to it as a settlement. Peace Now refers to it as both a neighborhood and a settlement. Its legal status as a neighborhood of Jerusalem is disputed in UN Resolution 476, so how can we lead with this term so unqualified? And why is a term that is disputed by the International Community used so blatantly and prefferably to a term that is disputed only by the Israeli Government (in terms of sovereign government recognitions)? This page really does not seem NPOV, but more like the Israeli Governments POV. Colourinthemeaning ( talk) 03:46, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
As some have accused the term 'international community,' or 'majority of the international community' to be a weasel word, I would like to know on what basis this is exactly, and what alternatives you may consider appropriate? Would for instance 'The majority of nations in the world, and Non-Governmental Organizations' be acceptable? Given they are synonymous as far as I can see, I don't quite understand what the issue with 'majority of the international community' could actually be?

It is considered a part of the ring neighborhoods, according to whom? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Colourinthemeaning ( talk • contribs) 07:24, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
Gilabrand, the source you have listed only states there is a fire station in Neve Yaakov. It does not mention by name, that it receives any other services from the city or what these services may be. Colourinthemeaning ( talk) 07:31, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
Colourinthemeaning: If Neve Yaakov's 30,000 residents are "outside" Jerusalem in your point of view, then Pisgat Ze'ev's 50,000 residents are also "outside" Jerusalem, right? So why can't we be consistent in both articles? We could simply lift the first 4 sentences of the lead of Pisgat Ze'ev, which says it cleanly and clearly:
Pisgat Ze'ev ( Hebrew: פסגת זאב, lit. Ze'ev's Peak)Neve Yaakov ( Hebrew: נוה יעקב, lit. Jacob's Oasis), is a residential neighborhood with a population of50,00030,000 located in northeastern Jerusalem. It was established on land annexed by Israel after the Six Day War. The United Nations and European Union consider it an illegal Israeli settlement. [1] Israel and the United States consider it a neighborhood in Jerusalem, and all services are provided by the Jerusalem Municipality. [2]
I wish the Jerusalem Municipality would read your version and stop billing us for arnona (city property taxes). :) Yoninah ( talk) 09:29, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

This source is cited nine times in the article only one other source in the article is cited more than once. Would anyone be able to explain to me exactly what this source is (who it was written by ect) and why it is suitable as the basis for an encyclopaedia article on the topic?

The current location seems to be some distance from the original location (about a kilometre). It is not accurate to say that the new one is built on the site of the old one. Zero talk 13:21, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Neve Yaakov in the north jerusalem not east (it north east but in jerusalem we call this area of this city "the north of the city" or "the far north of the city" 109.186.161.15 ( talk) 21:59, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

The settlement was established in 1970 as a private development. Regardless of the political history that happned on the same place. It's fair to mention what happened between 1914-1947 under history, but it is clear the district was established in 1970 Rabolisk ( talk) 14:24, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Current text: The international community considers Israeli settlements in East Jerusalem illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this,[9] defining it as a neighborhood within the jurisdiction of the Jerusalem Municipality, which provides all services.[10]
Suggested text: Much of the international community (with Israel and the United States notable as exceptions) considers Israeli settlements in East Jerusalem illegal under international law. The Israeli government defines Neve Yaakov as a neighborhood within the jurisdiction of the Jerusalem Municipality, which provides all services. Israelgale ( talk) 18:59, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Existing text: "In 1972, a new Jewish neighborhood was constructed on the site of the original village". Requested text: "In 1972, a new Jewish neighborhood was constructed on the site of the original village, on land that had been purchased by Jews in 1924."
Justification: The previous sentence emphasizes that the first neighborhood of the new settlement was built on land that was owned by Arabs. As currently written, the reader will need to remember information from the very beginning of the article in order to realize that this second neighborhood was built on land that had long been Jewish owned. Let's make the article accurate, not ideological. Israelgale ( talk) 19:22, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
Actually the text is wrong, as the new settlement was not built on the site of the old one. The location of the old one was approximately where Simha Holstberg St runs into Sderot Neve Yaakov. Zero talk 04:00, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
