Arnon Katz

Notability? This article was most likely created by sock of banned user Israelbeach, aka Joel Leyden, though checkuser proved inconclusive. Article links to Joel Leyden's personal website, the "Israel News Agency", as a source. Note that though linked to Hebrew wiki, there is in fact no article on the Hebrew wikipedia about Arnon Katz. A Google search for ארנון כץ in Hebrew seems to confirm that the gist of the article is more or less true; in fact, I would support an article about this person on the Hebrew wikipedia, if properly verified. But I'm not sure it belongs on the English wikipedia. I am uncomfortable with the fact that this reads like PR copy, and is not linked to from any other Misplaced Pages article. woggly 17:00, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

edit to add: Someone seems to take it seriousely...
      • Comment: Not everybody reading this has time to stop, think, and interpret your sarcasm. You started with the words, "sure he's notable" and most will take you at face value. Not to mention that your style of formatting is a bit confusing, as though three different people responded. --woggly 06:52, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per all above, and voluntarily paying taxes does not assert notability. Nol888(Talk) 20:40, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:N —SaxTeacher (talk) 23:29, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep 1. It is transparent that this article for deletion comes not from what is fact and noble, but has its origins in Wikipolitics. Woggly, as she states in her own words, associates this entry with user:Israelbeach and as such targets this article and anything associated with Joel Leyden or the Israel News Agency as sockpuppets or meatpuppets. Personal vendettas have no place on Misplaced Pages. 2. Woggly states that this article should be included in the Hebrew version of Misplaced Pages and I agree. But what Woggly misses here is that Arnon Katz resides in London and his mulit-million dollars ventures are international in nature. 3. Empire Online links to Arnon Katz, so if we are to delete Arnon Katz, who founded Empire, we should also delete Empire Online. 4. Arnon Katz co-created the first commercial Website in Israel and then went on to develop online gaming on the Internet. That speaks of nobility, not politics. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Israelgeeks (talk • contribs) 12:00, 8 March 2007 (UTC).

I suggest that everyone avoid Ad hominem arguements.--Nitsansh 00:16, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
