The result was keep. Given the discussions and even the nomination statement, despite this keep close, there is no prejudice to an early renomination for an AfD in case the article is not developed Wifione ....... Leave a message 06:48, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable webcam. There are several different webcams focused on the Western Wall, and this one isn't different in any way. Perhaps a distinction in the mid 1990's, but none now. Jmlk17 02:03, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete unless further notability can be established. —Ynhockey (Talk) 17:44, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep This article is not about a single wall cam, but about the idea of them. The idea of wall cams does meet the general notability guideline - there has been significant coverage on the topic in newspapers, books, and other reliable sources.

- Tentative keep The article is indeed about Western Wall web cameras in general, not about a particular camera, so the nom's rationale is invalid. The cited sources establish a certain amount of notability, which seems just barely sufficient. Perhaps the nom can show why there is insufficient notability, or the creator(s) can bring more sources, deciding the issue either way. Jalapenos do exist (talk) 15:29, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and improve/expand a little googling under various keywords readily reveals that there are multiple cameras (as the article states), many news articles spread over several years, and even discussions in books on digital art, one of which I added as a source.AMuseo (talk) 12:02, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: improve&expand Lack of specific rationale for nomination on non-notability by nominator. Article needs a little work like a purpose section, otherwise deletion should be better rationalized.QuAzGaA 21:27, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
