Dira Betachtonim

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Delete and redirect to Chabad philosophy. Minor piece of the Chabad movement's philosophy that fails WP:GNG. All the sources are Chabad-affiliated, and thus are not independent to established notability. Per a WP:BEFORE, couldn't find RS to justify a standalone article vice the proper paragraph-length coverage in the main article. Longhornsg (talk) 05:55, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep – per WP:Before, this should never have been raised as an AFD. WP:RS are easily available when searching online, (eg. in Google Scholar). Editors can locate sources by using Hebrew keyword, english translation rather than solely searching for the transliterated term. Since the AFD notice, I have expanded and reorganised the page to better present the idea as a significant theological doctrine and added multiple scholarly references. In any case, editors should also be able to use discretion to determine whether certain Chabad sources do in fact meet WP:RS. I.am.a.qwerty (talk) 10:48, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep particularly in light of the excellent work done by @I.am.a.qwerty; numerous, academic, non-Chabad sources are now included. Kazamzam (talk) 14:54, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
