I intend to expand this article, this village exists in Israel and I will expand the page soo it appears as other pages regarding Israeli locales appear, Seth J. Frantzman (talk) 18:00, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Is it notable, though? What is the importance of this town? Alinnisawest (talk) 18:10, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

It is as important as all the other small localities already included in wikipedia.org in Israel. See for instance Hamaam or Kamanneh.Seth J. Frantzman (talk) 18:22, 10 May 2008 (UTC)The only reason it wasn't included until now is no one took the time to expand it. I have now expanded it and I think included enough information to show that it is notable.

(edit conflict) I think that locations are generally presumed to be notable, though I'm not sure where I read that. In any case, I think the speedy tag has been placed in error, as the context is clear from the article. -FrankTobia (talk) 18:22, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

I placed the tag there because it was created with little information- I realize now I should have used a stub tag instead. I agree with your reasoning- however, remember that just because Article X exists, that doesn't mean Article Y should. Alinnisawest (talk) 18:26, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Now I have added more references, I hope that is good enough.Seth J. Frantzman (talk) 18:27, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Seth J. Frantzman (talk) 18:50, 10 May 2008 (UTC) My logic was not just because Article X exists, that doesn't mean Article Y should, but rather to complete part of the project of adding information on villages that are already listed under regional councils in Israel as part of the geography.

Can someone please remove the speedy deletion tag now?Seth J. Frantzman (talk) 18:32, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Done. -FrankTobia (talk) 18:37, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
