[edit] Charlie Wohlberg
A candidate for state assembly is not inherently notable. Does not appear to meet WP:BIO at all. Only two relevant Google hits, neither of which asserts any importance. Delete as non-notable politician/civil servant. Wickethewok 04:08, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per above, not to mention that this page reads like a campaign website, and we all know what Wikipedia isn't. -- H·G (words/works) 07:26, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Strong delete as per above. --BrownHairedGirl 07:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
- Don't Delete The Article is not specifically about a campaign, although it is true that it mentions Charlie's current occupation as working for a campaign. The main purpose of the article is to publicize one of the FIRST American Jewish Students to visit Germany Post-WWII. This is a big deal. YUHSB (Charlie's school)sent a diplomatic mission, entirely sponsored by the German Government, the FIRST OF ITS KIND by a High School with its goal being to rebuild connections between Jews and Germans. Not meaning to sound Melodramatic, but Charlie and the rest of the delegation "made history" so to speak, by acting as Ambassadors of Jewish Youth to a nation struggling to deal with its past in the holocaust. This was never done before - it is therefore noteworthy. It does not deserve to be deleted. This is not an article of self-praise, it is an article dealing with an individual who functioned as a leader on a barrier-breaking mission. --YonkersRepublican 08:52, 3 August 2006 (UTC)Matt Stern
