This text is copied from an article I am currently working on in my Sandbox. Please delete this unsourced, copied text, which could also be considered content forking at this time. Another Believer ( Talk ) 16:21, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Note for background: I am currently working on the article for the Portland Youth Philharmonic in my sandbox. The text appearing in this article was taken from that sandbox. I will be moving content to the main article in the near future, but in the meantime having a separate article for Gershkovitch is unnecessary. My goal is to get the PYP article to GA or FA status. If, during the review process, a separate article is needed for any of the conductors of the orchestra, one can be created then. -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 16:25, 19 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep A Google Books search shows notability as he has received significant coverage in many reliable sources. Though it is strange for another editor to bring material out of your sandbox to main space, the material is encyclopedic and the topic is notable.  You don't own the content, Another Believer.  It is for anyone to edit and develop as they see fit.  Cullen 328   Let's discuss it  19:36, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * OK. Perhaps I jumped to XfD too quickly when I should have started a merge or content fork conversation. My argument here is not ownership. I want this content to be displayed on Wikipedia, but I figured it belonged on the Portland Youth Philharmonic article, especially since the current form is so short. Perhaps the current Gershkovitch article should be merged or I should go ahead and transfer my content to the PYP and/or Gershkovitch articles? -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:44, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep – per the availability of reliable sources. Northamerica1000 (talk) 10:16, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * My initial concern here was content forking. Because I think the Philharmonic article will become rather long once expanded, I will go ahead and insert my Gershkovitch information over the copied, unsourced version. Please keep the article and close this discussion. Thank you, and sorry. -- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:44, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
