Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Amos Meller

This page is an archive of the discussion surrounding the proposed deletion of the page entitled Amos Meller.

This page is kept as an historic record.

The result of the debate was to keep the article.

Article claims he is a modern Isreali conductor but google can't find him (even tried several different searches). I propose to delete as unverifiable. Andris 22:01, May 19, 2004 (UTC)
 * If this is bogus, it certainly is convincing. Delete if unverifiable. - Lucky 6.9 23:40, 19 May 2004 (UTC)
 * Well, I can't verify the information, but  this might be him, and this might be relevant if I could read Hebrew. Isomorphic 02:42, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
 * I am puzzled. I guess I didn't choose the right keywords but neither of 3 my google searches based on information in the article (Amos Meller Taipei, Amos Meller conductor, Amos Meller Beijing) gave me anything. But, at least the part that he is a composer is confirmed. I withdraw my deletion request and propose to send this back to Cleanup. Andris 03:22, May 20, 2004 (UTC)
 * I just ran a search on Amos Meller. Didn't even search the phrase, just the two names.  I run the most general searches possible to start with, and only narrow if I get too many irrelevant hits.  Isomorphic 06:18, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
 * Definitely exists, he's pictured with his baton at http://www.israsong.com/artists/amos_m.htm . Gets a fair number of hits in the Hebrew google too. --Zero 13:49, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
 * OK, I agree with keeping. Do Hebrew sources confirm the rest of information as well (that he directed Taipei and Beijing orchestras)? Andris 22:02, May 20, 2004 (UTC)
 * Certainly keep. I added interwiki links to the Italian and Spanish versions of the article. Everyking 17:53, 20 May 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. On a tangent -- the Spanish wiki claims Meller wrote the United Nations hymn. According to this page, the UN doesn't exactly have a hymn, and if it did it was composed by Pablo Casals. Anybody know anything about that? Wile E. Heresiarch 17:13, 24 May 2004 (UTC)
