[edit] Muslim jew

Delete - idle speculation, dicdef at best. FreplySpang (talk) 03:49, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Not encyclopedic. -- Barfooz (talk) 04:23, 24 May 2005 (UTC).
• Delete, not notable dictionary definition. Megan1967 06:46, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete speculation. could be worth keeping if the article referenced the existence of actual muslim jews, but it doesnn't. Nateji77 07:56, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

change vote to Keep following cleanup. Nateji77 05:53, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - lacks any useful information. Cedars 12:43, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - but the information needs to be expanded greatly. There are terms such as Christian Witch in regular circulation so why not have Muslim jew?Internodeuser 12:48, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, in severe need of cleanup. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 13:33, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, contradiction in terms. Radiant_* 13:48, May 24, 2005 (UTC)

i think in this case "muslim" is the individual's religion and "jew" refers to his/her ethnicity, rather than religion. Nateji77 06:59, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete or rewrite including a link or redirect to Donmeh -- there really are Muslim Jews, but they're rare. Haikupoet 19:00, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

• Change vote to keep per Mustafaa. Vastly improved. Haikupoet 03:34, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete for the above reasons. Also, it's an orphaned article. Jacob1207 23:06, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep POV as it stands - but could make an interesting article --Doc (t) 01:07, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep. The phenomenon certainly exists, and is certainly article-worthy, but I'm not sure this is the correct name. I've added a bit. - Mustafaa 03:11, 26 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete non notable contradictory term. JamesBurns 10:32, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, but fix capitalization by moving to Muslim Jew. Jayjg ^(talk) 16:19, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Surprised that there is a VfD on this. --Irishpunktom\^talk 16:25, May 30, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable phenomena.Yuber^(talk) 22:59, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
