Camp Gesher
To quote User:Saberwyn, this is a US summer camp. Unless the article can explain, through the use of verifiable information taken from reliable third-party sources, how this summer camp is significantly different from the standard, run of the mill summer camp, there is nothing we can do that the camp's own site cannot do better. Entirely non-notable.  Páll  (Die pienk olifant) 05:01, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep Well the average run of the mill Summer camp often has its own article on wikipedia as well.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 08:02, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - PZFUN hasn't even bothered to read the article he's nominated for deletion. It's a Canadian summer camp. Every Jewish summer camp except one (Ramah) has been nominated for deletion. I smell a rat. --Leifern 12:17, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. As per Leifern. Camp is mentioned in more than one article in Canadian Jewish News, site of North Americans first weight loss and fitness Jewish camp, certainly as notable as most elementary school articles and many entries in Category:Summer camps. Jayjg (talk) 19:33, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, I'm concerned about this campaign to delete Jewish camps. -- M P er el ( talk 19:42, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Jayjg and MPerel. Unfortunately, this article is part of a large group of articles that were recently nominated for deletion and about which there is at present much friction see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Nomination by PZFUN, and Speedy keep of several articles by Slimvirgin, so it would be advisable for this nomination to be withdrawn entirely ASAP.

 * Keep. Apparently the nominator didn't bother to read the article before voting delete. Obviously, a nomination made in bad faith. Notable Canadian summer camp, not US as nominator claims. &mdash;Viriditas | Talk 22:28, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep No more or less notable than the dozens of camps in Category:Summer camps that are not up for AFD. Homey 22:28, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and support IZAK request. Alithien 23:11, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep all summer camps (yes, even the Jewish ones). Let's stop the disruption and improve the articles, not remove them. -- JJay 23:56, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep As noted by others above, this delete request is part of a rampage to delete Jewish-related articles. If it is a stub, then expand it.  Perhaps there could also be a merge with other pages on Jewish summer camps into a general article on Jewish summer camps and how they are different from "run-of-the-mill" US summer camps (i.e., their role in ethnic identify of Jews, history re: Jews being not welcome and/or proselytized by Christians in other summer camps, use of Hebrew and Yiddish languages at these camps, etc.)  But simply deleting all Jewish summer camps as "not notable" smacks of a hidden agenda against Jews.
