Strongly Oppose - Nesher has his own history. [User:Jor70|Jor70]] 14:16, 15 January 2007 (UTC) (Moved from Talk:IAI Nesher by BillCJ 15:28, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just the article s name is enough to merit a split: Dassault <-> IAI . I also intend to add more data about the Finger conversion in the future from this book [1] --Jor70 17:04, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changed to Oppose - Upon further research, I see no evidence that it is an established, accepted fact. The only source availble online at www.ACIG.org cits no sources for its information. Unless Israel and/or IAI have expressly admitted to assembling Neshers from French-supplied kits, I think the issue is still a matter of debate, not accepted fact. - BillCJ 18:13, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly Oppose Whether or not either one of the stories is true (see Nesher talk page), both are fascinating and more then warrant a seperate article to cover it. Either way, they are certainly not your standard Mirage 5 and need to be recognised as such. Furthermore, the general conception is that the Nesher is a seperate aircraft entirely and most visitors would expect to see it that way.SAWGunner89 01:26, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Though the Nesher article lists references, it currently does not cite its sources. It makes claims that Dassault built the Neshers, and IAI assembled them, which is contrary to IAI claims that it built the Neshers from blueprints. While the articles claim is credilbe, it should state exactly which sources this is based on with cites. Except for the mention of the Nesher issue, the Mirage 5 article is also uncited. These need to be taken care of whether the articles are merged or not. - BillCJ 15:43, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
