Maor Ashkenazi

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Reads like WP:PROMO... for another article (see Noam Cohen). No real sign of notability here. Edit: The concern here is mainly a WP:BLP1E concern which is visible in the lede of the article, which includes "mainly notable for". Allan Nonymous (talk) 17:18, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep: Relevant article created from reliable sources https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/380226 (Israel National News), https://www.timesofisrael.com/amid-thrum-of-war-popular-songs-of -rage-and-resilience-become-post-oct-7-soundtrack/ (Times of Israel), https://www.ynet.co.il/entertainment/article/rkh4kr0zp (Ynet), https: //web.archive.org/web/20231203000349/https://glz.co.il/%D7%92%D7%9C%D7%92%D7%9C%D7%A6 (glz). In addition, the artist appeared on the most listened to lists in Israel The song was a hit on streaming and entered at number 33 on the Mako chart. At its peak, it reached number 26 on the charts. In the creation of this article I believe it, seeing the rapper Shabjdeed who does not offer much notoriety but maintains an entry on wiki without any problems. In addition, the rapper Ashkenazi is not an orphan, he is linked to the article Israel–Hamas war in Israeli music. --Acartonadooopo (talk) 18:22, 6 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep: It seems clear that the Hebrew coverage is very good. "The broken heart of the Rishon LeZion rapper never stops winning hearts" (Hashikma, April 5 2024), "The experience in the shadow of death turned into a moving song to the point of tears" (Mako, Oct 28 2023), "Opening my eyes and realizing that I'm alive, I'm moving the bodies of my friends above me" (Mako, Dec 11 2023), "Maor Ashkenazi joined the 'Bad Guys' and became a singer with millions of views on YouTube" (Rishon Mynet, Jan 24 2023). A question for the nominator: Are you looking at the Hebrew sources before nominating these pages? Toughpigs (talk) 19:19, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I did see the Hebrew articles you cited, the problem is that this gets us to only two sources covering the guy, where three is generally preferred, given that one of the sources (Hashikma, April 5 2024), seems to be an interview and thus is not eligible for establishing notability. In particular, the two sources appear to be local, (although the Mako article is very deep, so that may ameliorate some concerns). The remaining sources mostly seem to consist of tangential coverage, coverage of his one song, or both. Even the articles here, that do contribute to notability seem to do so in the context of his song (Haarezt, Mako). Allan Nonymous (talk) 12:34, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. The notability has been discussed and established above. No need to repeat that. Nominator is unhappy with a statement in the intro. That's ok. THE LAST REMEDY we want in such cases is an AFD, wasting valuable community resources. Keep also by SOFIXIT and AFDISNOTCLEANUP. SNOW also applies. Arguing as above only makes the impact of this AfD worse. gidonb (talk) 15:06, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep strong. There are reliable sources here. In fact, Ynet increases the team notoriety. 181.197.40.84 (talk) 16:25, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
