[edit] Camp Yavneh

  • Keep, notable enough, over 60 years old, affiliated with Hebrew College, mentioned in The Jewish Journal. --MPerel ( talk | contrib) 10:38, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete. Its a 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. The article linked to (3rd external link onthe page) seems to be a good external source, but IMO effort can and should be made by those who seek inclusion of this article to cut out the badvertisment and write an externally verifable article with references and/or citations. -- saberwyn 10:46, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Or weak merge per below. -- saberwyn 11:32, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge with the Hebrew College mentioned by Mperel above. Markb 10:57, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep no difference with the other articles to keep on the subject. Alithien 12:12, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as per MPerel. IZAK 12:41, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, notability established. --Terence Ong 13:03, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  • 'Delete - per User:Saberwyn. Only 542 Ghitshttp://www.google.com/search?hl=da&client=safari&rls=da-dk&q=%22Camp+Yavneh%22+-Wikipedia+-Answers.com&btnG=Søg&lr=]. Would change vote to weak keep if phrases like "Camp Yavneh claims to be at the center of the lives of thousands of people throughout the United States, serving as a staunch example of Judaism and love" and "a strong Jewish camp environment where Jewish values and activities are emphasized in a fun and stimulating atmosphere." were removed, they're far too POV.

  • Instead of complaining about POV, if there are lines that you think need "removal", why not edit the article? Normally, I would include a link here to the various help pages on editing. However, since you have demonstrated in-depth knowledge of AfD, I assume you already know how to edit. -- JJay 01:56, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

      • Man, that is the opening for a great joke... if only I knew GWO better...--Isotope23 19:28, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep, as before. Notable enough, over 60 years old, affiliated with Hebrew College, mentioned in The Jewish Journal, as notable as most of the thousands of elementary schools listed on Wikipedia, or many of the camps listed 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 Mperel. Possibly do other actions too (merge or fix), but definately keep it. --Yodamace1 16:18, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Nice encyclopedic treatment of this summer camp. Just the kind of article I like to read and contribute to in my spare time. Let's make our camp coverage more comprehensive. -- JJay 19:48, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep -- I already voted to keep this before, I vote so again -- thank you, DR., for wasting my time by making me do this over and over... Rooster613rooster613Rooster613 01:47, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep definitely notable. Pecher Talk 14:36, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • keep please these mass nominations are not usually helpful Yuckfoo 19:35, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - copyvio of [1]. At present, merging with Hebrew College is not an option as the latter article is a one sentence stub. B.Wind 12:30, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
