Israel–Palestine

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Seems like a perpetual stub, unless the term itself is going to merit an entire article, which seems unlikely. It should probably be a redirect, but I don't know to where. Thoughts? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:43, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOTDIC. The article is nothing but a definition of the term, and while it has some informal usage in the media, it's not notable on its own. Maybe redirect to Holy Land, which covers the geographical region "Israel-Palestine" would fall under.   S warm  ( Talk ) 00:43, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - I'm going to agree with Swarm on this one, since it does seem more like a definition. I think if not deleted a discussion on where to redirect it would be necessary. Plus I'm not sure of the relevance of the article. -petiatil &raquo;user&raquo;speak 04:06, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Nominator says that "it should probably be a redirect". Sure, but only as a redirect to a page that says "There were no results matching the query.  You may create the page '.Israel-.Palestine', but consider checking the search results below to see whether it is already covered."  As the history shows, this was a bad idea when the nominator thought there should be a redirect to "Palestine (region)".  Predictably, other people thought it should be a redirect to "Israel" or to "Palestine" or not a redirect at all but an article with content.  There have even been fights over whether it should have an Israel or a Palestine flag to describe it with the words "This is a [take your pick, Israel or Palestine]-related stub."  Remove both this and the redirect to it ("Israel/Palestine").  Nobody ever needed this in the first place.  Mandsford (talk) 15:15, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
