Home of Old Israel

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I cannot find any evidence that this was a notable old age home. It does not appear to be the first or oldest, or that its buildings were in any way architecturally significant. There is coverage of some of the people who lived there, and the fire. But as notability is not inherited, I don't see that it meets WP:ORG/CORP. StarM 03:32, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. In the article, there is significant newspaper coverage cited such as New York Times coverage from 1930 about a fire and such as ""Stage to Aid Old Israel Home" New York Herald Tribune 10 Dec 1930, 20".  The argument that notability is not inherited would suggest that, if there were an article about the fire, then the material here should be merged back there.  However, we should just have one article about the place overall and about the fire, IMHO.  There appears to be an abundance of coverage, albeit not online and linked, in the article, so it appears to meet wp:GNG handily.  It doesn't matter that the sources are off-line. --Doncram (talk) 00:36, 10 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment I'm not sure the Times coverage on or off line (agree, that doesn't matter) adds up to anything. The fire was reported on, yes. But did it have any lasting impact? I'm not sure. It didn't seem to lead to any change in regulations or anything else. None of the coverage is about the building so NN fire, NN building. I literally cannot find anything about the home/building from which to expand this article. The org existed, yes. But notably? Eh       StarM 02:01, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
