The speedy delete was declined with "Decline speedy delete, this is about a real person and a real person can not be made up". I didn't find any reference in English and Hebrew about this rabbi. The source provided in article does not even mention him. Looks like a hoax. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 14:48, 10 July 2017 (UTC) Arthistorian1977 (talk) 14:48, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If it is a hoax, that is a WP:G3, not WP:A11. If it is a real person without a claim to significance it is a WP:A7, still not a WP:A11. ~ GB fan 14:57, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:A11 says "obviously invented". I guess a person, with no source showing he ever existed is obviously invented by the author. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 15:01, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That would then be a hoax and fall under WP:G3. ~ GB fan 15:05, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete - This hoax runs deeper than this article. Yedid Nefesh, Kiddush, 1600, Elazar ben Moshe Azikri, 1533, were also vandalized - working on it.Icewhiz (talk) 15:42, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It is even an inconsistent hoax. Travelling from Lemberg to Fez would be improbable in 1551. It would even be more improbable to do so to study with Rabbi Jacob Berab who died in 1546 (five years prior) and who lived in his later years in Cairo, Damascus, and finally in Safed (leaving Algeria at the latest in 1522).Icewhiz (talk) 15:55, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The one reference made does not mention him whatsoever, plus if the info above is correct its a hoax and should be deleted. - Galatz ^Talk 16:02, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
