Throw the Jew down the well


Delete, the subject of this article fails WP:Notability. FrummerThanThou 07:25, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. If there had actually been any media coverage on this song, WP:Notability would have been fulfilled somewhat but there hasn't. In addition this article has included the entire copyrighted lyrics to the song several times which is what caused the redirecting of this article the first time. Gdo01 10:08, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 17:03, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Once again a user has tried to put the lyrics to this song on the page. Gdo01 19:05, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete and redirect to Borat. --Dhartung | Talk 17:30, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename Throw the Jew Down the Well It has been covered by more than enough media sources (hell, more than enough conservative anti-Borat media sources) to exhibit notability. Just take a look at the dozens of Google News hits, including articles from Israel (natch), Australia, and India. (Aside: 82,000 G-hits for "Throw the Jew Down the Well".) While some of the articles only relate to the song or mention it in passing, many are specifically on the song and the controvery surrounding it. -- Kicking222 17:31, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually its closer to 677 unique G-hits of which most are fan sites or video clip portals. I'll accept the fact there are many news articles but other than stuff about the Anti-Defamation League, what more is there to say? Gdo01 19:05, 14 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep or redirect. Notable and interesting in its own right based on the controversy, but could be merged into a Borat article. References must be included. --GunnarRene 18:09, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree that it should be a redirect to Borat--Dmz5 21:37, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep The topic gets 81 thousand hits and was discussed even in prestigious publications such as the New Yorker. Personally I would favor keeping the article under its current name and expanding the text. TSO1D 21:57, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Change of mind due to insertion of refs. It seems it is one of his acts that people feel the need for further reading up on. frummer 04:15, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Frummer: What are you doing? First you nominate this article for "deletion" and now you vote to "keep"  it? This is just another example of the trouble you are causing on Wikipedia as you have done in Templates for deletion/Log/2006 December 14 and Articles for deletion/Orthodox Halakha. You must stop your disruptions ASAP, or face the consequences. IZAK 10:55, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Per above I changed my mind. Simple as that. frummer
 * Keep and rename Throw the Jew Down the Well OMG OMG OMG how much more famous can you get! - crz crztalk 05:12, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. Open and shut, really, one of the most notable parts of the US Da Ali G Show. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:57, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, it's well known comedy by now, And yes, it also belongs in Category:Antisemitism for its contents and depictions. IZAK 10:39, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, on the condition that it is properly categorized (per IZAK) and analyzed. ←Humus sapiens ну? 12:34, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
