[edit] Camp Yavneh

To quote User:Saberwyn, this is 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. Entirely non-notable. Páll ^{(Die pienk olifant)} 05:05, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Over 60 years old, affiliated with Hebrew College, mentioned in The Jewish Journal, certainly as notable as many of the elementary schools listed on Wikipedia and camps listed in Category:Summer camps, and concerned about PZFUN's campaign to delete Jewish articles - I believe over 40 listed in one day, and a number of the camp nominations were clearly made without reading the articles (e.g. referring to Canadian camps as "U.S. camps"). Jayjg ^(talk) 20:03, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as per Jayjg and MPerel. 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by PZFUN, and Speedy keep of several articles by Slimvirgin, so it would be advisable for this nomination to be withdrawn entirely ASAP.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. Notable summer camp. —Viriditas | Talk 22:15, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep No more or less notable than the dozens of camps in Category:Summer camps that are not up for AFD. Homey 22:28, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. May be a WP:POINT nomination, but there's no reason why this should be in an encyclopedia. Stifle (talk) 22:51, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. As per Jayjg and Homey. Alithien 23:09, 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.

• Delete. I looked carefully and could find no mentions of this camp that were not advertising or otherwise from the camp itself, except for the Wikipedia entry. This camp fails WP:CORP, I think that's pretty clear, and without any reason to think we should treat it specially, we should delete it. Just because there are other articles on summer camps that don't belong doesn't mean we should keep this one. And while there may be something wrong with someone's behavior, this deletion proposal is reasonable. Mangojuice^talk 00:07, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Per comments above. --PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 01:17, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
