Timeline list of Hasidic leaders

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Orphan page that isn't even a list of what it claims to be about. No significant edits since well over a year ago . Page should be "userfied" until ready for promotion back to article-space. Ajh1492 (talk) 17:36, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (or: ~~rename and~~ userfy but rename if recreated): I have always wondered what the purpose of this list is. There have been very many (several thousand) Hasidic leaders since the times of Hasidism's founder, the Baal Shem Tov, most of whom are easily notable per WP:GNG (only some of which have articles; see Category:Hasidic rebbes), but I can see no logic in organizing them with a timeline. Some of the content of this page could be used, renamed, to form a Timeline of Hasidism, but even so, the article is so incomplete that user-fication is required. (The usual way of organizing Hasidic leaders is by dynasty; Yitzhak Alfasi's books on Hasidic leaders and dynasties, the standard reference works in this field, and similar works by other authors all use the dynastic organizational scheme.) הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) 18:46, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Amended: who cares what name it has in userspace? הסרפד (call me Hasirpad) 19:37, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and הסרפד. This looks like a term paper project. It is also unclear whether the maps are public domain or not. Hasidic Judaism already covers the same subject. Yoninah (talk) 18:57, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – per others. United States Man (talk) 02:03, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and userfy. The article is essentially content-free, a skeleton around which an article may have grown if the primary author (seemingly an occasional editor) had gotten around to it. The maps seem fine to me, unless I'm missing something. Lagrange 613 01:46, 11 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
