Greeks in Israel and Palestine[edit]

Article is too narrow in range -- this belongs in the existing article Greek diaspora. (I am not sure if this should really be a merge request...) Imaginatorium (talk) 05:21, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with merge of the small part of the material that is properly sourced. After removing the unsourced material, too little remains to warrant a split. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 15:34, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep -- I do not like the title; and the article is a bad one, but the subject is a legitimate one. It is ptenetially a more detaield article to go with the Hellenistic (ancient) section of the Greek diaspora. Merging it back to that would unbalance that article.

Comment Why not split the article into two articles? Greeks in Israel and Greeks in the Palestinian territories. Solar-Wind (talk) 16:31, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as is, no doubt. The article's length is quite decent, and I've improved it, take a look. This article should definitely not be merged with the main Greek diaspora article, as the latter briefly summarizes the subject in key points and has no place for such long information. However, the current title is wrong and implies that Palestine is a country, which it has never been of course. So instead of naming the article just "Greeks in Israel", the more appropriate and politically current title would be "Greeks in Israel and the region of Palestine", which will refer both the state of Israel today as well as the geographic region called Palestine.
