- Being listed on Google News is not very difficult and probably not enough to make something "notable" by our standards. The Alexa ranking is low and there are few unique Google hits. No reliable sources are presented for the information in the article. Currently it seems to me that the article doesn't qualify for inclusion, but I'm willing to be convinced if evidence to the contrary is presented. Haukur 21:55, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- How is notability being measured in this case? Are we applying WP:WEB, or another standard? Þorgeirsson states that getting listed on Google News is a rather trivial task; how does one accomplish this? For the moment, I am leaning toward keep due to its frequent citation by the press, but am open to discussion. Silensor 00:38, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

- Comment. Just for the record, with regard to issues discussed in the previous AfD, the Israel News Agency is not a government-controlled press agency in Israel, just a private entity, and it is not even the leading press agency in Israel -- that would be Itim which Misplaced Pages doesn't yet have an article about.
