[edit] Rachel Levy

WP:NOT a memorial. Gets 18,000 google hits but most of those seem to be other "Rachel Levy"'s or wikipedia mirrors. Pboyd04 03:10, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

• Comment At the time this created quite a stir and was covered in major news outlets. N Shar 03:49, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into Palestinian political violence - condense the relevant info into a paragraph and add it to the "current political violence" section. Fabricationary 04:14, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep but maybe merge per above... this is all verifiable and attracted quite a bit of media coverage and public interest. --W.marsh 04:24, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Abstain for now. I found 479 unique google hits for her, so there is a certain level of fame. Pburka 04:38, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete - Her name pops up often on sites about the Intifada, but beyond being blown up she has no other claim to fame, and WP:NOT a memorial. If this isn't deleted, then merge and redirect per Fabricationary -- Thesquire (talk - contribs) 06:31, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and Redirect per Fabricationary -- DaGizza ^Chat 10:25, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep though I'd support the merge suggested by Fabrictionary, too. Levy passes the bar for notability due to the news coverage. I'm pretty certain she even made the cover of a major news magazine (I want to say Time but I've been unable to find an online source to confirm). 23skidoo 15:35, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep or possible merge. Seems a fairly well-written article about an arguably notable news story. Robin Johnson 16:48, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep as per Robin. Themusicking 20:42, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

• keep please because of the coverage Yuckfoo 22:57, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Being in Newsweek seems notable enough. Johnleemk | Talk 00:12, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Victims can be notable. Story is well known and is verifiably documented. Her "American-ness" made lots of news here. MKaiserman 14:13, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep.  Grue  13:42, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable story, widespread coverage, all verifiable. —Cleared as filed. 14:24, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
