[edit] Avraham Bentzion Isaacson
Not notable as either a rabbi or in South African history as the article seems to claim. There have been hundreds of better known rabbis in South Africa, and there are still many there, but most, like this one, would not deserve "biographies" on Wikipedia that merely seem to be preludes to their obituaries. Violation of WP:NN, WP:BIO, and WP:NOT#WEBSPACE. IZAK 06:43, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

- Delete as non-notable per WP:BIO. EyeSereneTALK 19:24, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Very Weak keep if the importance of his anti apartheid sermons alluded to can be demonstrated. But the person who did not become chief rabbi is not automatically notable. DGG (talk) 04:43, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
- His sermons and fame in South Africa were totally off the radar. He was outside the country much of his professional life and then he spent it in the shadows. IZAK 06:49, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
