Searches did not turn up enough to show he passes WP:GNG. His scholar counts and Worldcat info are quite low, so I can't see how he passes either WP:NSCHOLAR or WP:NAUTHOR.  Onel 5969  TT me 12:31, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep He is the author of three published books and dozens of articles in addition to teaching at a major Israeli university. Notability seems clear to me.Geewhiz (talk) 15:02, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Greetings, Geewhiz. The fact that someone teaches at a university and has published articles and books does not make someone worthy of a Wikipedia article. Wikipedia does not have such a criterion! If it were otherwise, literally every person teaching at a university would be in Wikipedia! Take care. -The Gnome (talk) 11:49, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

 * 5. Research and Scientific Publications: Shaul Navon's research deals with the treatment of hypnosis and psychotherapy as therapeutic methods for removing patient objections. In 2005 he developed a groundbreaking model that gave him an international name called "disease / non-illness" for the treatment of patients with physical illnesses. This model is based on a paradigm approach in psychotherapy and hypnosis, based on transforming the patient's resistance states into cooperation in the therapeutic process. The approach is based on the presentation of two alternatives that enable transition from a narrative state of "illness" to a narrative of "non-illness".

 * Delete. According to Google Scholar the subject's highest cited paper has 15 citations. That's well below the standard required by WP:PROF, and I can see no indication that he passes any other criterion of WP:PROF or the general notability guideline. Phil Bridger (talk) 13:24, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Phil Bridger, Navon has written a breakthrough model in psychotherapy and is invited to the world's most prestigious medical institutions, and what you refer to here in this discussion quotes?
 * It is known that when something new is proposed in world literature in psychotherapy, the citations are few due to the innovation in the article!
 * However, the number of quotes in all of Navon's articles exceeds 15!


 * 1. Here is an article in a well-known Israeli journal called "Sichot" in which Navon's model: Illness / Non-Illness is cited as a central model in the treatment of diabetes patients:
 * Grossman, G. (2002). Family Therapy for Insulin-dependent Diabetics (IDDM): Literature Coverage and Case Presentation. Sichot, vol. 16, (3): 268-275.

For this purpose he was sent for training in the treatment of :hypnosis in gastrointestinal disorders to Manchester, England. Peter Whorwell, Which is considered the first in the world to prove that hypnosis in Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) has proven itself in an extraordinary way.

 * Delete per nomination. The strenuous and extraordinary effort to attach notability to a non-notable subject is to be noted, admired, and rightfully discarded. Nothing in the avalanche supports notability as prescribed in WP:ACADEMIC. -The Gnome (talk) 11:49, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Here is another example in which Dr. Navon is asked to be the Rerviewer of an article sent to him, in order to decide whether this article deserves to be in the Journal of Clinical Psychology.


 * I also attach an invitation to Navon to speak at the NEW ENGLAND SOCIETY OF CLINICAL HYPNOSIS.


 * Please read here what is written about Navon. Ralph747 (talk) 12:38, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Again you are bringing up irrelevant issues. Neither being asked to referee a paper nor being invited to speak at a conference comes anywhere near satisfying the requirements of WP:PROF. Please read it. Phil Bridger (talk) 13:03, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
