[edit] Amitiz

A non-notable organisation that pulls up no Google hits for itself apart from the Wikipedia article. The article is poorly formatted and not in any way fact-checked with references or any other source information. Páll (Die pienk olifant) 22:02, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Holy guacamole, this article is a mess. It's a mess not only because there are so many red links, but because it's junk. Heck, in the edit history, the members of the organization actually fight about whose name should be listed first. -- Kicking222 23:19, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete NN, WP:RS per nom Crum375 23:27, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. DarthVader 23:45, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable, bad article, unsourced, unverifiable. --NicholasTurnbull | (talk) 00:06, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Crazynas 02:25, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep It needs editing, but it hopefully can be saved. Note that I am a member of this organization, but I had nothing to do with the article creation. I'll try and fix it now. FrogStomp
  • It seems you took out some non-existing wikilinks. IMO this has no real bearing on the reasons to deletion: WP:NN, WP:RS - please review these articles. An organization, to be wiki-notable, must have reliable unrelated publications referring to it and describing its notability. Crum375 15:49, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, nn organisation, per nom. --Terence Ong 04:35, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • I think SlimVirgin specifically excluded this AfD from her Speedy Keeps. I assume that's because she felt this one is bona-fide AfD, possibly due to nn, db-club. Crum375 23:47, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
The article may be one of several nominated for deletion but that does not mean it's worthy of retention, even if other articles nominated at the same time by the same editor are "Keep"able. Do you have an argument for retaining the article on its own merits instead of merging it with Aleph Zadik Aleph as has been suggested?Homey 23:26, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep or merge with parent organization. -- JJay 23:41, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep As noted by others above, this delete request is part of a rampage to delete Jewish-related articles. If it is a stub, then expand it. Perhaps there could also be a merge with other pages on Jewish summer camps into a general article on Jewish summer camps and how they are different from "run-of-the-mill" US summer camps (i.e., their role in ethnic identify of Jews, history re: Jews being not welcome and/or proselytized by Christians in other summer camps, use of Hebrew and Yiddish languages at these camps, etc.) But simply deleting all Jewish summer camps as "not notable" smacks of a hidden agenda against Jews.

  • This argument is out of line. The original nominator gets one vote, if that. The rest of us here have nothing to do with the nomination, and we put in our time and effort to improve WP. We try our best to be NPOV, so please stick to the issues. The issues here: nn, db-club. If you feel you can address these issues, you are more than welcome. Crum375 00:08, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
Comment Um, this article isn't about a summer camp. Please read the article and consider it on its merits or demerits rather than voting on an article you haven't seen because you disagree with the nominator's actions elsewhere.Homey 00:03, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
