The result of the debate was redirecting seems like it would satisfy the "delete" side while still leaving the information intact for the "keep" side if ever he becomes notable enough for an article, non? fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 16:16, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ohad Shem-Tov

• Delete It's pretty clear from the article and its talk page that it is a non-notable member of fringe party. The discussion in the talkpage should have ended in deletion some time ago, but sadly ended in accuracy disputes. C mon 20:57, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete. I'm guessing that the nominator is correct here. But if someone who knows more about Israeli politics can comment, it might help. Bucketsofg 21:12, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Even if just notable the article gives almost no information beyond what is already in the Ale Yarok article. I would have tagged it for cleanup, but now that is AfDeed I say go ahead and delete it. Not likely someone will invest time in number three when we do not even cover number one anyway. gidonb 21:25, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Ale Yarok. I tagged this as disputed after reverting vandalism. It looks like that has been not been resolved. The party article covers him & a redirect will discourage recreation. -- JLaTondre 21:41, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Ale Yarok may be a fringe party but it is consistently the largest of its kind, and Shem-Tov is a notable member of it - if you follow its development. He was interviewed on TV several times if it's any indication. I believe that he still has future.--Amir E. Aharoni 04:58, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Just a thought: Ale Yarok is the only Israeli party whose platform firmly supports Free Software, a camp to which Wikipedia belongs too. Please take it into consideration. Stallman, Torvalds and Lessig weren't notable once too. I say - give this article a chance at least until the next election, which is not too far, judging by the ridiculous instability of the current Knesset. These would be my last words on the issue. (Disclaimer - i happened to meet Shem-Tov in person once - we study in the same university, but he's not my close friend, and i didn't vote for his party.)--Amir E. Aharoni 11:43, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Even though it hasn't won any seats, Ale Yarok should and does have an article, but that doesn't mean its member should. --Ajdz 05:13, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - per above --Haham hanuka 17:54, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
• Conditional Keep IF and ONLY IF at the moment of vote counting numbers 1,2 and 3 in the list are present as non-stub articles in wikipedia(currently number one is missing), else Delete. --Procrastinating@^talk2me 17:36, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
  • At the time of, uhhh ... what? You know we don't actually count votes, right? fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 16:16, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Is it a joke or something? Self promotion of a non-notable figure. Noon 10:56, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
