Fails WP:NORG. Of the sources, several do not mention the source at all, and the rest are passing mentions, or the website itself. This may be related to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matzav (2nd nomination). Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n! 08:37, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:GNG. I am unable to find any sources talking about this website, only the website promoting itself. BTW in my own research, I find that the website merely copies from other sources, like Yeshiva World News, and even from Wikipedia articles. Yoninah (talk) 11:16, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete There's nothing i the article to support a claim of notability and I couldn't find anything more in a Google search. Alansohn (talk) 13:21, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This seems to be the third attempt to shoehorn this into an article and I can't see how it is notable.

  • author note: I've reformatted to begin that they're primarily a news aggregator, but that they do develop their own material which has been picked up by The Jewish Press (Matzav.com claims 4 part-timers get their non-aggregaion "scoops") and a number of Jewish organizations and specialty sites (JLaw.com).
P.S. It's not the 3rd time, only second-and-a-half: In the original Matzav article about the "situation" (meaning of Matzav), this topic (Matzav.com, the site) was the tail. Now it's the turn of Matzav to be the dog-like tail: Matzav.com doesn't need [[Matzav] to stand tall, OK, on the shoulders of .. stream-of-consciousness postscript ... perhaps it's still (notable 2008 cited comment) "up and coming. Keep an eye on it." Pi314m (talk) 13:38, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
