 * Delete - no assertion of notability and no sources attesting to notability. BlueValour 19:57, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Assertion of notability is made in the original article (excavated Timnah).  See also Amihai Mazar, LMLK seal, and Tel Batash.  On Amazon, see the 1995 book,Timnah: A Biblical City in the Sorek Valley; the book was reviewed in the following publications: Journal of the American Oriental Society 118.3 (July 1998): p440(1); Journal of Biblical Literature 117.2 (Summer 1998): p339(3); The Catholic Biblical Quarterly v59.n2 (April 1997): pp352(2); and the Biblical Archaeologist v59.n4 (Dec 1996): pp246(1).  As expedition director Kelm published final reports for the Publications of the Institute of Archaeology, Hebrew University of Jerusalem: in 1997 for Timnah (Tel Batash), and further finds in 2001.    Also articles like: "Escape to Conflict: A Biblical and Archaeological Approach to the Hebrew Exodus and Settlement in Canaan". Biblical Archaeology Review. 18.6 (November/December 1992), 8, 10; Kelm, George L, Mazar, Amihai. "Three Seasons of Excavations at Tel Batash—Biblical Timnah," Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research 248 (1982): 29-32. &mdash;Viriditas | Talk 00:38, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Prof. Kelm will always be an important figure in the history of Biblical archaeology for having been co-director at Tel Batash.--Funhistory 03:01, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep looks like he passes WP:PROF. Paddles TC 13:40, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Another inappropriate nomination. SlimVirgin (talk) 17:55, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - with the addition of the publications this is now a clear keep. BlueValour 22:13, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * It was a clear keep without the publications. You don't get to be Professor Emeritus of Archaeology without having published something. SlimVirgin (talk) 22:19, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
