[edit] Israel Polack

He is not a well-known person--64.12.116.7 18:09, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Imagine an article about the founder of the largest textile, closing and knitwear company in Australia, Canada, the UK, or the US, one whose contribution to his or her country was great enough to be awarded a national honour, and to be honoured by one of the premier universities. That sounds like an article that would be worth keeping. I think we have an example of a systemic bias against non-English-speaking countries, which is something that Wikipedia should strive to reduce. We have lots of articles about industrialists in the countries I mentioned, so why not Israel? Ground Zero 18:18, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. Listed as copyvio. They should take care of it. Sdedeo 19:21, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
• (Delete copyvio but) keep replacement article if one gets written. He certainly seems notable. Another bad-faith nomination by an anon. Uppland 21:23, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
  • I have attempted a re-write at Talk:Israel Polack. Comments/improvements are welcome. Ground Zero 16:04, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
    • You should probably move it to Israel Polack/Temp. There is a risk that the talk page gets deleted together with the copyvio version. Uppland 17:07, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
      • Done. Ground Zero 18:09, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
