Indeed.

As extensive as the built-in docs are, though, they are not a source for
popular external plugins or configuration snippets.  I used to look for
such on the wiki (at wikia) and mailing list archives; presumably there
are third-party resources too these days.

Another useful tip:

:help hebrew
(triggers completion)

Zeev is an Israeli tech entrepreneur. Arrogance does seem very likely!

Too bad that if he wanted to stick something Hebrew there, as some sort
of Easter Egg, that he didn't at least use *correct* hebrew.

The correct Hebrew is nekudAtayim, with a an "a", NOT an "o".

The special double plural suffix is attach to the signular form, not to the
already plural form... Just like he said Paamayim, not Paamimayim

If you don't believe me, check out for example

Really? WTF? Linking to a document from 3 years ago? So, the wold of 
propietary software stopped 3 years ago?

Did you check the status on modern office suits, or will you just link it 
forever, being ignorant and thinking what is the best for you and not reality?

(crap, every time I say something rationable and smart a kitty dies, please

Diego, please. I think you're not doing justice to your own cause by 
writing that kind of meaningless flame mail. Honestly, I did not quite 
understand what that reply was about. The only thing I got is these blog 
posts are outdated. What have changed since then and how does that 
affect us? I think that building a case beyond throwing facts at the 
problem by adding some semantic connections and logic reasoning could 
aid in better conveying your message to us. Could you explain further in 
a calm and clear manner?
