Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yuval Tal

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. It seems like the sources provided by E.M.Gregory and Unscintillating have not been contested beyond perfunctory "not notable" arguments. There does not seem to be enough support for a WP:TNT based deletion, either, and the article is already tagged for cleanup. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:42, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The notability is that of the companies, and is covered adequately there. DGG ( talk ) 07:42, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - other than one single interview, none of the sources go in depth about him. Bearian (talk) 19:19, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The standard her is not what sources are currently on the page, but, rather, Do good sources exist?E.M.Gregory (talk) 05:07, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, seems to just need someone to source the page to the many articles that cover him in substantive detail in articles about his companies. And ther are profiles of him Here's [1] a juicy profile in the New York Observer. Another in a 2006 book Makers: All Kinds of People Making Amazing Things in Garages, Basements, and Backyards'.

Note in particular, that Tal drew wide attention when one of his companies pre-paid cards was used in the Assassination of Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh. Wall Street Journal, Hamas Killing Shines Light on Payoneer, Prepaid Cards, [2].E.M.Gregory (talk) 05:05, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Here is another reference. Unscintillating (talk) 21:57, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The vague arguments of the delete !votes clearly ignore the alternatives to deletion. Why try to get this edit history deleted? And as for the redirect that could have been done without a deletion discussion, Payoneer barely mentions this CEO, and the article here is the only coverage we have for BorderFree. Another article involved here is Assassination of Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh, where readers would have good reason to want to know what reliable sources have to say about this topic, just as the Wall Street Journal saw fit to write a related article, as referenced by E.M.Gregory. Also as E.M.Gregory has noted, this topic is sufficiently established to be referenced in a book. Unscintillating (talk) 21:57, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as clear advertising and I concur with the nomination as it fluidly and noticeably shows the concerns, I see no compromises of which would not affect both substance and its considerable advertising-formatted, hence delete. SwisterTwister talk 05:20, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

comment fails to address either notability of topic or the substantive sources that have been found by editors here.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:23, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- a vanity page on a businessman not notable outside of the companies he was affiliated with. Payoneer itself is only marginally notable, so delete. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:50, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
