Delete unsourced article about a mayor of a mid-sized city - we don't know when or where he was born, or whether he's still alive. Any way, for those who have stated that mayors of cities over 100,000 are inherently notable - Macon's population was 97,606 in 2000 and certainly less when this dude was mayor.

- Keep. Stubs and unsourced articles are surmountable problems and are not a reason to delete. Further, before nominating things for AfD, please do a cursory Google search for the article topic. In under five minutes I found six fairly substantial sources which can be used to reference and expand this article. Knowledge of a subject's birthdate is not a requirement for inclusion, as some people consider that information private. However, if you care to know, George Israel is 57 or 58 (as I'm fairly certain he was born in either 1949 or 1950, though I wasn't able to find a source offhand that explicitly states that), he is currently the president of the Georgia Chamber of Commerce and is on the board of directors of YKK Group. (Fun fact: YKK is a big employer in Macon.) LaMenta3 23:37, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

- Keep. Article is sourced and asserts notability. --Goobergunch|? 12:02, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
- Strong keep -- just a cursory Google News Archive search turns 330 news items. This took all of 30 seconds and anyone can do it. Why are we even having this AfD?--A. B. 12:56, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
