Israeli Agricultural Labour Union election, 1968

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article on an internal election for a trade union, which I do not believe is notable in itself. Perhaps if there was an article on this union, the details could be merged into it, but at present there isn't one. Number  5  7
 * Delete as not notable (the union might be, but a specific election won't be) unless an article on the union is created - in which case, merge with that . ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 16:19, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
 * I can't find any sources to suggest that the union itself is notable either, so deletion seems to be the best option. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 16:23, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment Seeing as how the page is a virtual orphan, I suggest that it first be turned into an article about the trade union itself before adding pages about elections. Please expand since this would seem like a notable subject of early Israeli history. --Shuki (talk) 18:29, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment2 Main Hebrew article, nonRS, but good resource nonetheless. --Shuki (talk) 18:34, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep, this was a contested (by various political groups) election with an electorate of 45,000 (out of whom around 30,000 participated), carried out nation-wide. Thus a major political event in Israeli politics in that year. Notably one of the first areas were the two communist factions clashed in seeking public support. Also the first such election to take place. I wouldn't mind merging details into a broader article on the union or elections in this union, but awaiting the creation of such articles this one should stay. --Soman (talk) 22:14, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep ,but rewrite as suggested into an article on the union itself, which needs an article. Quite sufficiently notable, with enough available sources.  DGG ( talk ) 04:20, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
