I don't see how the Moody Gardens or the insurance link were relevant to the article. ] 06:53, 4 June 2007 (UTC) | |||

I feel they are relevant because the Bank controls the insurance company and the foundation which funds Moody Gardens.

==History of the Jews in Brenham, Texas== | |||
Sorry to keep asking for advice, but in the article ] a recent editor keeps posting notices about the intro, which I see as efficient. Do you have any advice? Thanks. ] (]) 02:30, 28 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
Not a problem, feel free to ask questions anytime. I'm more than glad to help where I can. I agree your intro is efficient, but after a casual glance at other "History of Jews in..." articles, maybe something along the lines of the following would be acceptable?? | |||
"The History of the Jews in Brenham, Texas covers a period of over 150 years. As one of the first areas in Texas, outside of major population centers, to develop a sizeable Jewish population, the community boast many things of historical note." | |||
Obviously it needs to be tweaked a bit, but maybe its a starting point? ] (]) 02:57, 28 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
Thanks a bunch. I will also take a look at redoing the intro for the other "History of Jews in..." Thanks again and take care. ] (]) 13:33, 28 December 2007 (UTC) | |||
=={{{header-text|Notability of ]}}}== | |||
]<!-- use ] for YELLOW flag --> A tag has been placed on ] requesting that it be ] from Misplaced Pages. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the ], articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please ]. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the ]. | |||
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding <code>{{tl|hangon}}</code> to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ''']''' explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for ''speedy'' deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Misplaced Pages guidelines. | |||

Hi Nsaum: I received your Email and at this point I would suggest you track and contribute to the serious discussion at ] about this matter where a number of experienced Judaic editors are debating the situation. Thanks for your concern. ] (]) 04:35, 17 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Sources and notability added == | |||
Hi Nsaum75: Shavua Tov: I have spent some time improving the two articles currently up for deletion. The ] and ] articles, now renamed ] and ] to differentiate them from other similar sounding congregations elsewhere, are now a full articles. They meet all criteria for such articles. I also wish to point out that this is proof of what can and should be done to improve stubs. Merely because someone has started a stub does not mean that the article of a place/person/event are "not notable" since not all people have the time and capability of working to improve such articles. There is no statute of limitations on how long a stub deemed to be significant can exist and it is certainly no reason to invoke reasons to eliminate them, otherwise why do we have stubs in the first place? It is requested that the nominations be withdrawn! Please look into this. Sincerely, ] (]) 11:10, 17 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Follow-up with creator of Minnesota synagogues stubs == | |||
Hi Nsaum75: You may be interested to know that I have contacted User {{User|Grika}} who was the editor who originally created all the stub articles about synagogues in Minnesota that have now become the focal point of much debate, and he, as creator of the stubs has neither responded, participated nor defended himself in any discussions AFAIK. Please see ]. Feel free to add your comments. Thanks, ] (]) 09:44, 18 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Thanks for the heads up ]. They haven't edited anything since 05/02/08, and seem sorta sporatic in their edit history -- maybe contacting them via E-mail would illicit a faster response? ] (]) 09:56, 18 February 2008 (UTC) | |||

Re: Galveston
Uh, unfortunately, no. I've lived in Indiana for one year (in Bloomington), but I haven't heard of either place name. And even though I'm pretty comfortable with my English ability, I'm not a native speaker: I just try to guess the pronunciation. And as for my pseudonym, I chose it merely because it sounds cool - now I'll have to decide which one sounds cooler, though. :) Keith Galveston (talk) 04:18, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
