[edit] Camp Tel Noar

Non-notable. Written as an advertisement for a summer camp, and has almost no encyclopaedic information apart from its location and founding date. Páll (Die pienk olifant) 21:55, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Non notable. Crazynas 02:30, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Its a US summer camp. Unless the article can explain, through the use of verifiable information taken from reliable third-party sources, how this summer camp is significantly different from the standard, run of the mill summer camp, there is nothing we can do that the camp's own site cannot do better. -- saberwyn 02:57, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, nn camp. --Terence Ong 04:34, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Popular enough to be notable.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 08:05, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - needs to be rewritten, but this is hardly a controversial topic. Note that this is part of a campaign to delete every article about Jewish summer camps except one. --Leifern 12:26, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, I'm concerned about this campaign to delete Jewish camps. --MPerel ( talk | contrib) 19:44, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Over 60 years old, one of three camps supported by the Cohen foundation, site of famous 1998 fire as documented in the Pulitzer Prize winning Eagle-Tribune, certainly as notable as many of the elementary schools listed on Wikipedia and camps listed in Category:Summer camps. Jayjg (talk) 19:53, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Popular and notable. Pecher Talk 20:42, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as per MPerel and Jayjg. Unfortunately, this article is part of a large group of articles that were recently nominated for deletion and about which there is at present much friction see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Nomination by PZFUN, and Speedy keep of several articles by Slimvirgin, so it would be advisable for this nomination to be withdrawn entirely ASAP.

  • Keep. Way too many Jewish camps being nominated. -- JJay 23:51, 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.

    • False. These are articles that have been caught in a stub sweep through a particular category. (In this case it was the Judaism related categories, some other time it might be anime related, or software related, or what have you). Kim Bruning 00:19, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
Answered on your talk page. It's how you check articles. Kim Bruning 01:42, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
