[edit] non-notable

Who is this person and why does he deserve an article on Wikipedia??? --Gilabrand (talk) 10:52, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

I've read work by him in American publications; I don't think he's known in Israel because he writes in English. By the way, he is mentioned in the New York Times review of Levin's play, except that his middle initial is omitted (paragraph 6). AshcroftIleum (talk) 23:30, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Just because he appears as the translator of one play doesn't make him notable. There are thousands of people who write in English in Israel, and if they are in any way important, their names are recognizable. There is nothing - no sources or other comment - in this article to show that, and I support deletion.--Gilabrand (talk) 05:38, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and this is his glorious "profile":

"Age: 27 Gender: Male Astrological Sign: Capricorn Zodiac Year: Sheep Industry: Non-Profit Occupation: Writer Location: New York : New York : United States Describe the sound of a moist waffle falling onto a hot griddle. Alas, the whole span of my life is the time it takes to drop from my frozen cardboard womb to this hot, sizzling grave.

Interests Skulduggery Tomfoolery Haberdashery Pomposity Bacchanalia and imbroglios Favorite Music Elvis from his fat period" Articles on such "celebrities" as these are what make Wikipedia such a sick joke. --Gilabrand (talk) 08:19, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

I don't think anyone's Blogger or Facebook profile should be used to gauge their importance or notability and I certainly don't think Wikipedia is a sick joke. In a google search I found Azoulay's website, along with details of his publication in the literary journals American Drivel Review, Smyles and Fish, Promethean, and the Israeli journal Iton 77 (עיתון 77). I don't think anyone should be offended by this little stub of an article and it might even lead someone more knowledgeable than us to write more things we don't know. If you don't agree, go ahead and delete it; I won't stop you. AshcroftIleum (talk) 18:14, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

American Drivel Review? You gotta be joking. To make the list complete, we can add stubs on everyone who has ever written a letter to the editor--Gilabrand (talk) 06:35, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
