[edit] William Maniaci

I'm not sure about this one. The article claims that this guy is an Israeli militant of some note, leadership of Jewish lobby groups, and claims activity in the 1980s, which is suspicious because it only gives 44 google hits, apparently unrelated to Jewish affairs. It is also written with a rather subtle attack-POV tone, which also heightens my suspicion as to whether this is a hoax, or even then, perhaps nn.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 03:12, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nominator, also because the article is (no offense) poorly written. So even if one could argue in favor of it, the article would need to be cleaned up a bit. -EdGl 03:20, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete: this article is so badly written it's hard to tell whether its author is anti-semitic or anti-didactic. In any case, it's very POV and adds nothing reliable to the existing article on the Jewish Defence League, and I doubt a redraft would improve it. --die Baumfabrik 05:37, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak keep; the article is crap but this is no hoax. This proves he's connected, and this proves he's visible. Melchoir 09:00, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, neither a hoax nor non-notable [1]. So fix it. Monicasdude 14:48, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep & clean Screams POV, but notable. Eivind 02:25, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
