278:. As described in the article, the killing had a significant effect on Israel-Palestinian Authority relations, which are considered among the most important bilateral governmental relations in the world. So the fact that the nom can say that there is "no evidence that this killing of a settler is any different than any other killing anywhere" is stunning. Other differences between this killing and others include the fact that this one drew at least two government ministers to the funeral and that it led to a military operation. But I'm drifting into summarizing the article, when people should just be reading it. All in all, this incident is nothing like "routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports or celebrities" and everything like a textbook case of a significant, influential and widely reported 542: 534: 314:- Another in an endless series of articles attempting to memorialize news events of the Israeli-Palestinian civil war as encyclopedia articles. As usual, this is a cloaked POV push and Wikipedians need to just say no. Knowledge is NOT A RANDOM ACCUMULATION OF NEWS STORIES, particularly a tendentiously-selected set of news accounts memorializing one team's losses while ignoring those of the other. — 546: 706:
information" since it is ongoing coverage. It is inline with the GNG with significant coverage from reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. It also may meet EVENT with ongoing and widespread national and international coverage. Google News Archive hits shows it all. This happened in December 2009 and continues to be discussed months later.

Israel's link-up with the Palestinian security forces and disengagement from major checkpoint/roadbloc areas. I can think of many articles related to terrorist acts that are frequently created on wikipedia without challenge. It seems the only articles attacked are incidents involving Israelis. Surprise surprise.

I disagree -- they are for the most part reliable and many are solely about the event and its aftermath, while another discuss the event and or its aftermath. And they were produced in the google search looking for articles more than a few days after the event -- there are many more in the few days

The cross-border coverage, along with the number of articles, suggests notability sufficient to satisfy NOTNEWS. Recency of an event is not by itself reason to not cover it -- otherwise we would never have articles on events until months after they took place. And a simple google search shows many

Reasoning to delete based on POV is (again) a problem. POV is reason for deletion if it is bad enough (WP:NOT#OR is part of WP:NOT which is reasoning at WP:DEL) However, just because it is a touchy subject and might be a favored article of those with one POV or the other (those in support of Israel

Just glancing through it, I see a few. You can narrow it down w/various searches (e.g., include rabbi, don't include rabbi but include "west bank" or "shooting" or "killed" or "shot", etc.). I see the mentions that you view as bare mentions as sufficient to reflect continued coverage, and am also

My above comment is discussing the first result. Look at each of the Haaretz results on the first and second pages, the dates are misreported. Those are most of the articles that show up after the first few days. The rest barely mention the topic, they dont cover it. The second gnews does have some

Is it too much to ask that you nominate an article for deletion without maligning the creator's intentions? If you think the subject is more suitable for Wikinews, you're entitled to your opinion. But this is something that actually happened in the real world, according to all points of view, and I

NOTNEWS is not being applied correctly (again). It is not "routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia." It is not against "breaking news should not be emphasized or otherwise treated differently from other

So -- justfixit -- memorialize both "team's losses" that are notable. See otherstuffexists. This is certainly notable, as reflected in the clear majority of comments below. What seems tendentious is some of the delete voters who only appear to seek to delete losses on one side, in the face of a

The sources you added are for the most part either unreliable (Arutz Sheva) or barely touch on the subject (such as ones that say "came three months after Meri Hai was killed in the West Bank") or come from the days after the incident, such as all the Haaretz ones which you oddly only included an

Really, how many more AFDs on Israeli articles do we need? This must be the 10th one. The killing of Rabbi Hei was a significant event and generated international press. It continues to be recorded as a major terror incident within the Israeli government. It was one of the most violent acts since

My intention is not to dissuade anyone from writing NPOV articles. My problem is that it seems a group of editors are furiously creating articles which seek to demonize Palestinians. If this is not your intent, I hope you will change the way you edit articles so that it doesn't do so. Fighting to

I'm just trying to explain why articles of this ilk are being scrutinized more closely than usual — for good reason. I make no assertion that this particular article or any particular editor is part of the well-documented coordinated campaign to skew Knowledge content.

deeper than that you may find that there arent any sources covering this killing after the initial spike in coverage. You may find some sources mentioning it, as in "this killing took 6 months place after Rabbi Meir Hai was killed", but that isnt "coverage".

I was planning to say delete on this as another relatively lesser incident in the conflict. But when I checked G News, I saw athat it was covered not only by multiple RSs in the region & almost all the major US newspapers, but also from

This is not relevant in the least!!! The article was created nearly a year before this signpost issue. Looks simply like part of a POV-motivated campaign to remove any article that portrays Palestinian terrorists in an unfavorable way.
646:. I've now added over 20 refs to the incident and its aftermath, all dated from more than a few days subsequent to the first reports. There are more to be added/reviewed, if anyone cares to check the above gnews and ghit links.-- 164: 511:
This is not an issue of "recency", this happened 9 months ago. And a "simple google search" does not show that. Google news misindexes the dates on articles from Haaretz. For example, a google search shows

The article addresses the incident and provides ample reliable and verifiable references to support the fact that there is coverage over an extended period, backing up the claim of notability.

impacted by the fact that coverage is international, which the guidance indicates is a factor to be considered. In all searches, both spellings of the name yield more fulsome results. Best.
538: 473:. There has been no lasting impact from this and no evidence of any sustained notability. There was a spike in news stories at the time of the event and not much of any coverage since. 158: 253:
How bout you just discuss the article and not the editor, that might be better. Otherwise somebody might start questioning your motives for nominating this article for deletion.
