Strippergate (Israel)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is pure Content forking. The only notable person is the father, and so the text may be included there. No reason for a new lemma in Wikipedia. --Hannover86 (talk) 10:31, 11 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete or Rename to Yair Netanyahu. I don't think the event meets LASTING, though it did have SIGCOV, it is really NOTNEWS (at present - the sort of event that is in the airwaves for a cycle or three). Yair himself, however, does meet GNG by himself. He actually does have an entry on hewiki -, and did pass a deletion discussion in August 2017 (following different political statements and a bruhahah over some cartoons) - hewiki AFD - and he should pass enwiki's GNG threshold (since he has been covered as a subject for years) which is actually lower than hewiki's notability guidelines in this case.Icewhiz (talk) 11:36, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, I we can rename it to Yair Netanyahu and write about the anti-Semitic Meme he had posted. The meme that was liked by the head of KKK.-- A P S  talk  13:47, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I think there is ample space to cover the incident in Yair Netanyahu (who should meet GNG). You also have WP:COMMONNAME problems here - the news cycley incident isn't known as strippergate (Ha'aretz in English used this in a piece, not used in Hebrew, not used widely in English) - it also involved a bit more than strippers (i.e. Yair discussing possible sexual "sharing" of his girlfriend, and talk about how a gas tycoon was enriched by Bibi). My 2 cents is that the event itself is really a NOTNEWS thing as a standalone - but fit for inclusion (carefully with enwiki's BLP policy) in Yair Netanyahu.Icewhiz (talk) 13:59, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep: clearly relevant because of the corruption debate in Israel. At least as notable as gamer gate and pizzagate.-- A P S  talk  13:32, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Furthermore this guy is known for trying to shut down articles like this. With the wildest claims. According to him I as a Jew am anti-Semitic because I, like most of Israel, dare to write about this topic.-- A P S  talk  13:42, 11 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge to article on Benjamin Netanyahu. Wikipedia is not a newspaper.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:22, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Clearly fails WP:NOTNEWS its clearly "news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities" --Shrike (talk) 13:33, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep clearly a lasting relevance in Israel. At least more relevant than gamergate and pizzagate. Not to mention that the German Wikipedia, known for its fast deleting policy, actually kept their article.--93.207.55.36 (talk) 14:12, 18 January 2018 (UTC) — 93.207.55.36 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. --Shrike (talk) 14:59, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as Content forking. I have no idea whether Yanir Netanyahu is sufficiently notable to support an article - most offspring of heads of state are not. The incident coverd in this article fails WP:GNG.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:02, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

 * delete per WP:NOTNEWS. All the citations are news reports from a single day, a little over two weeks ago. Has anyone cared since? It's too early to tell. Mangoe (talk) 17:41, 26 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTEVERYTHING. Too many wikipedians seem to be slavishly devoted to transferring everything in the news into a bloody article. It's bad enough with Trump issues. If a politician farts, or their kid cusses, it doesn't belong in a bloody encyclopedia. --Animalparty! (talk) 06:37, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - As others have rightly pointed out, Wikipedia is not a newspaper. I hesitate to use that as a reason myself, because I'm trying to think of a newspaper that runs two sentence articles. No, we can't simply rename this to the BLP involved (unless you'd like to see how quickly we can delete a BLP1E). Merge? Meh. If this is significant to any other article, it's already there. Comparisons to Gamergate controversy and Pizzagate conspiracy theory are absurd. Both are clearly -- indisputably -- notable. (If you think either is not notable, please take it to AfD and ping me, just so I can watch.) If, several years down the road this has proven to generate meaningful coverage, we can easily recreate to two sentences that make up this orphaned mini-stub. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 19:40, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
