Fails WP:BIO, lack of secondary sources about the person, only indication of notability is a non-notable prize that I cannot even find actually exists (Namir Prize). Additionaly, COI issues possible with the creator and largest contributor having uploaded the picture used with the claim that he or she took the picture themselves, indicating a personal connection with the subject.

Keep. The article has numerous secondary sources (ASABE,Manila Bulletin, Washington times and more). The Namir prize is referenced here- https://www.agri.gov.il/he/pages/655.aspx?fbclid=IwAR2UkQrLF2NgjGMTHsRJYw-2lFgLvZd4EraDHobvqzO6OJnt1pBp-MUnK1s

And a simple search attests to its existance and notability: https://www.google.com/search?q=%D7%A4%D7%A8%D7%A1+%D7%94%D7%A2%D7%91%D7%95%D7%93%D7%94+%D7%A2%22%D7%A9+%D7%A0%D7%9E%D7%99%D7%A8&oq=%D7%A4%D7%A8%D7%A1+%D7%94%D7%A2%D7%91%D7%95%D7%93%D7%94+%D7%A2%22%D7%A9+%D7%A0%D7%9E%D7%99%D7%A8&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 That prize alone is sufficient, but it is not the only notable attribute. Sarig was elected ASABE fellow, which is "a member of unusual professional distinction with outstanding and extraordinary qualifications", and he has several other awards for inventions in agricultural machinery, also in the bio link above. Yes, I knew Ihim IRL,and took that photo, but knowing someone is not a conflict of interest, nor a reason for deletion. AgEng (talk) 15:25, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Did you know he was dead? Since you write I know in the present tense. A bit curious this is your first edit in 9 years though.  nableezy  - 15:34, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
 * typo corrected, yes I know this. I don't edit wikipedia anymore, but read it often, and you pinged me that you are about to delete something I worked on for quite a bit back in the day. What does any of this have to do with this discussion? AgEng (talk) 15:53, 15 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep. Notable academic for many reasons, not least being the highly selective and prestigious ASABE fellow. Free1Soul (talk) 15:29, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
