it appears this topic does not have many "third party" references available (in fact probably none, aside for the article written by y. epstien which has been quoted) -most references are from "shulchan aruch" or responsa to parts thereof.
i will add in some more references (if applicable) and remove the reference request (i actually place it further down the page, pending research into the "mitzvah detail").--Marecheth Ho'eElohuth (talk) 16:08, 23 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hi In ictu oculi;
In addition to [1] i feel compeled to a whole revert of the recent edits to this article;
Insertion of bible translation where the sacrifice is item of article -this negates the entire article theme and a result of hurried and unrehearsed changes (מאת זבחי הזבח is entirely a mundane slaughtering and has nothing to do with the Korban area)
Change of general Gaonic view to that of the lone Rav Hai Gaon (assumption he is the only Gaon of this view?)
Translating Shochet as butcher lacks consideration of this article content's scope (it was edited by "Editor2020" -but was okay before your edits in question)
As stated in prior revert I am in agreement with EN usage (and will return to this article to do such -if you aren't able to first) -but i oppose editing to the point where focal article content is distorted--Marecheth Ho'eElohuth (talk) 20:55, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The gift of the shoulder, cheeks and maw of a sacrificed animal to the priest (Hebrew: זְּרועַ לְּחָיַיִם וְקֵּיבָה) was a practice in Ancient Israel:
Re this change:
1. The giving of the foreleg, cheeks and maw - why has "the gift of" been changed to "giving" - this is bad English
2. Why has "shoulder" been changed to "foreleg"? WP:RS have "shoulder"
3. is a positive commandment ( Mitzvah) -- where is the WP:RS that this is practised today? Why has reference to Ancient Israel been deleted?
4. "requiring a Shochet (jewish ritual-slaughterer)" - can you say this in better English please?
5. to give the aforementioned parts of a kosher-slaughtered animal to a jewish priest ([Kohein]]).
6. REF Shulchan Aruch Yoreh Deah 61:1 - what year/edition/publishing house, what language is this source in?
7. "This giving is required to be free of both monetary and servicial compensation." - can you please rewrite into standard English.
8. REF Talmud-Bavli Bechoros p. 27a, and Rashi thereof. - See WP:IRS. The correct was of expressing this would be "according to Rashi's commentary (on B.Bechoros 27a). REF page no edition year, place of publication, language of publication.
I see now that you simply cut and pasted and duplicated the badly written paragraph from lower down (and left it there as well) well, I've now rewritten it in English. Non-native speakers are welcome on en.wikipedia, but please ... show some consideration for grammar, style and English usage. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:03, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but no matter what any individual editor thinks "should be" the correct English word, Google Books and Google Scholar indicate that the "shoulder, cheeks and maw" (430 uses) is standard English usage vs "foreleg, cheeks and maw." (9 uses). Reverted per WP:RSIn ictu oculi (talk) 15:24, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Same again, one month later...
Marecheth - I'm wondering, since there you have a religious sensitivity against the terms used in the English versions of the Tanakh and Mishnah that you can present here using English language sources? In ictu oculi (talk) 00:56, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies for interupting the flow of RM with this reply but seems needed to calm things down.
Remember to base arguments on WP:article title policy, and to keep discussion succinct and civil.
IZAK, we all need to bear in mind above. Please notice also that Marecheth Ho'eElohuth himself requested sources on 23 April in the first section of the Talk page above. And also please note that I am aware that there are 5 or 6 editors have come who are very strongly opposed to conforming the title of Marecheth Ho'eElohuth's article creations to the subjects as discussed in English sources. In such cases the result of an appeal to the wider community will almost certainly be an experienced and capable admin coming along and closing this RM as "no consensus", and the page will be left with a title and article wording not found in English sources, probably for many years. So please take it easy. The RM process is not intended to be "hostile" (much less so than a ping-pong of reverts), it is simply a mechanism that invites other non-involved Wikipedia Users to review article titles, should they wish to, that's all. Best regards and take care. In ictu oculi (talk) 11:15, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How does this deletion and the edit summary "nothing to do with sacrifice" fit with:
And this shall be the priest's due from the people, from them that offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep; and they shall give unto the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
בקר טוב In ictu oculi, let our record show this as a classic example of Lisa mile long list of complaints against you. You are supposing that your translation source is the first, middle and final word on all and every article on Wikipedia. I've grown frustrated at this and will join the call for you to take it easy on myself and the long list of editors that waste their time trying to reason with you.--Marecheth Ho'eElohuth (talk) 17:49, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'd stick with abomasum since maw has multiple meanings and abomasum has but one and that one is the one specified by rabbinical authorities.--חודר לעומר (talk) 22:58, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
