List of newspapers in Israel
This is a great list with few red-links, but should be reordered as a category in accords with Wikipedia is not a directory. frummer 11:46, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Reorder as a category. frummer 11:47, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep fine list. Don't see an issue. - crz crztalk 13:12, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep it's not uncommon to have a "list of" article in conjunction with a category on Wikipedia (unless things changed). —Tokek 14:51, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Good list. We have a whole category filled with these lists - I'm sure there has been precedent set to keep them. --- RockMFR 19:55, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - useful, does not violate Wikipedia is not a directory. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 22:11, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, falls into line with the other newspaper lists. SkierRMH 01:47, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep useful list that would be less useful/informative as categories because of the different types of newspapers. TonyTheTiger 03:55, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep/Merge into Israel/turn into a category. Just H 03:56, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Doesn't violate any relevant policies. Yuser31415 04:05, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Useful and per RockMFR. —dima/s-ko/ 04:13, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Is it informative? Yes, because it provides information that a category can not. Is it navigational? No, the category is much better at that. Is it for development purposes? Yes, because it contains red links. In other words it satifies two of three WP:LIST criteria and deserves to exist. Punkmorten 17:54, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. 'Lists' are accepted aticles. This actually list provides for sub-cats (frequency and locality) where as real cats would not be productive or legitimate. --Shuki 19:52, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep' but it does need some work, I will try to do that tomorrow. --Chussid 02:24, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Per Categories, lists, and series boxes, "Wikipedia offers three ways to create groupings of articles: categories, lists, and article series boxes. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and each is appropriate in different circumstances. These methods should not be considered to be in competition with each other. Rather, they are most effective when used in synergy, each one complementing the other." This list provides information that a category would not be able to provide. Alansohn 06:39, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, as lists and categories serve different functions, and the newspapers are notable. IZAK 17:13, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
