[edit] Camp Galil

• Keep and cleanup The "daily routine" section can go, but Google brings up 2,000 hits (all of which on the first page related to this camp and were not false positives), and the article has external links to reputable sources. -- Kicking222 02:56, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, per comment by Jayjg in previous Afd: Oldest Jewish summer camp in Pennsylvania (60 years old), associated with an international movement, member of Foundation for Jewish Camping as one of 7 Habonim Dror camps [1], mentioned in more than one story in The Forward and The Jewish Exponent,[2] [3] [4]. --MPerel ^{( talk | contrib)} 10:54, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, article does not establish notability. We have an article on Habonim Dror and don't need one on every single camp of theirs. Dr Zak 13:06, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep a good short article that describes an important working example of teaching Zionism and Hebrew language to Jewish youth in the USA. IZAK 13:48, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, since there are no guidelines for summer camps, I simply don't see anything that distinguishes this particular summer camp.--Isotope23 17:14, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep As before. Oldest Jewish summer camp in Pennsylvania (60 years old), associated with an international movement, member of Foundation for Jewish Camping as one of 7 Habonim Dror camps [5], mentioned in more than one story in The Forward and The Jewish Exponent,[6] [7] [8], certainly as notable as most elementary school articles and many entries in Category:Summer camps, such as Camp takajo or Woodward Camp, or indeed almost any of the camps in that category, almost all of which are referenced at best by a link to the camp's website.

• Keep per all the persuasive keep arguments above. One of a small number of Jewish summer camp articles that help improve wikipedia's incipient coverage of summer camps. -- JJay 21:43, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to Habonim Dror Ted 22:55, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep --Shlomke 03:34, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep since there are no guidelines for summer camps. Age of camp is significant by itself, guidelines should be drawn up before articles are deleted for lack of guidelines. --Shuki 19:26, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

• Neutral - article is in need of serious rewriting, to eliminate POV and establish encyclopedic form. I'd be tempted to advocate a merge with Habonim Dror, but there's not much "room" in the target article for it (or the other six articles). B.Wind 13:00, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
