notability
Why isn't this person notable enough and Azzam Azzam is? Counterboint (talk) 18:19, 30 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for contributing. The tags says "may not be" not that he is not notable. Notability (people) requires sources in independant 3rd party sources. Not being an expert on these issues, I would prefer to see more references. Azzam Azzam has 4 refs, 2 of them from news sources, one of them the BBC, so no doubt in my mind. Another reference from another source would be enough for this article, IMHO. Thanks again. --triwbe (talk) 18:33, 30 August 2008 (UTC)


 * One of the problems are that the other references I found are in Hebrew. The Jpost article seems to be the only one in English. Wikipedia's importance is also in bridging the language gap - bringing entries to the knowledge of English speakers even if they are unreported by English sources. I added the main Hebrew reference.

 * Personally I accept non-english sources and I assume other editors, for example from Wikiproject Isreal, will check them. --triwbe (talk) 08:29, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
