First American-Romanian congregation

 * Question: Why wasn't the original contributor of this article informed at any point about the votes for deletion? See User talk:Rshamos. Thank you. IZAK 10:40, 22 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep them all. Should not have been nominated and then relisted. Try clean-up tags and article talk pages. Let's improve the articles, not set off AFD wars. -- JJay 02:31, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * This is that kind of blanket statement that is singularly unhelpful. AfD is a debate, and especially in a contentious debate anything but precise statements will muddle the issue. But you know that yourself. Dr Zak 02:41, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * What do you want to debate? That this is a historic congregation? That AfD is cleanup? That it makes sense to relist some of these articles twice in two days? These are blanket noms, so if you want me to address this article, then please explain why it should be deleted. -- JJay 02:45, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * The articles are re-listed to get over the acrimony in the last round of nomination. I merely listed them again here for debate – hopefully more civil this time. If you don't want to take part in the debate, then don't take part. Dr Zak 02:51, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I commented individually on every one of these articles (voting keep) and I expect my voice to be heard. An immediate relisting will also not achieve your stated goal of eliminating "acrimony" in my view. Regarding this congregation, the building has obvious historic interest and the congretaion's history dates to 1902. The article is partly a copyvio though (the nom should have checked this).-- JJay 03:00, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, but Move to First Romanian-American congregation . Also note that the nickname "The Cantor's Carnegie Hall" returns Google results, with results including news media, , and the results appear to be relevant to this place.    ergot 02:57, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep per above, especially per ergot. Lots of history + news hits = notable. -- Kicking222 03:22, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. -- Olve 07:53, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep them all Evolver of Borg
 * Keep - per ergot. Seems notable. ←Humus sapiens ну? 08:48, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as above. &mdash;Viriditas | Talk 09:07, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per ergot particularly. -- M P er el ( talk 10:18, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, I have Wikified the article. The synagogue is unique because of its early history of switching from being a church to a synagogue and then back again to a church and then to finally a synagogue. It was an integral part of the Jewish history of the Lower East Side. IZAK 10:34, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - a notable congregation that has been in the major media lately, including The New York Times. No legitimate reason to pursue deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alansohn (talk • contribs)
 * Keep as per IZAK and Jayjg. More I think this vote is some kind of misuse of wikiprodedure to prevent debate where they have to take place. Alithien 12:08, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, notable. --Ter e nce Ong 12:41, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep, fairly notable church. and as stated above, there is some media mention.--Isotope23 17:17, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * It's actually a synagogue :) -- Avi 20:08, 22 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Speedy Keep. Notable historic congregation and landmark. I've cleaned up the article a bit, and provided proper sources. By the way, its name is actually "First American-Roumanian congregation", so I've moved it there. Jayjg (talk) 19:53, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. SlimVirgin (talk) 20:40, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
