Fails WP:BIO. Non notable. No links. Delete Undeath (talk) 07:10, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - Why is the article of the Cheif Rabbi of South Africa up for deletion?  Iconic religious figure in South Africa from the from the final years of apartheid into majority rule.  The article has works from The Times, New York Times and The Guardian primarily about this person.  --Oakshade (talk) 08:05, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

 * While I always support and frequently contribute to improving an article, an AfD should be a last resort after the nominator has exhausted all avenues to research and improve an article on a notable topic so that it can be kept. The "I don't see references or links so it's non-notable" is the very definition of WP:OSTRICH.   --Oakshade (talk) 17:09, 26 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep, certainly the head of a particular religion for a country passes notability requirements, and we have had an excellent Heymann by Oakshade and vultureofbook. --Dhartung | Talk 10:44, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
