Rosa Levin Toubin

This article is about a non-notable individual. Although the article asserts that she has written 2 things, they have not been published by a reliable publisher. Furthermore, the sources cited for the article are either not reliable or mention her only in passing. Karanacs 21:58, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep this article is relevant to Jewish Texan history. Bhaktivinode 00:36, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Can you explain how it is relevant and why you feel she meets the notability criteria outlined in WP:BIO? Karanacs 01:35, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, local historian, all-around nice lady, but far below WP:BIO. Very disappointing when an editor puts so much hard work into an article that is destined to be removed. Wikipedia isn't about everything. --Dhartung | Talk 02:14, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Ancestry doesn't confer notability, nor does what is self-publication; the article doesn't seem to claim notability for the individual about whom it's written; doesn't meet WP:Notable, WP:BIO. Accounting4Taste 14:36, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:BIO, and reads like a memorial article. Edison 14:34, 24 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or Merge into History of the Brenham Jewish Community or B'nai Abraham Synagogue, Brenham because this article is part of a group of articles relating to Jews and Judaism in Texas (the others being James Simon (Businessman), Henry Cohen Community House, Jimmy Kessler, Rosa Levin Toubin, Simon Theatre Simon family, Joe Levin (Businessman), Alex Simon, Sam H. Toubin) that have been nominated for deletion by User Karanacs (talk · contribs) (and another, Temple Freda nominated by another user) yet taken as a whole these articles are a valuable set of records about a topic in a state with relatively few Jews and with an even scantier record of notable Jews, Judaism and Jewish history in it. There is indeed a great need for an article about History of the Jews in Texas and these articles would all be good starting points and resources for it. This article, like the others in this group, cite adequate sources and meet the minimal requirements to be kept. The nominator is requested to reconsider her nominations of these articles. Thank you, IZAK 05:02, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, possibly merge any relevant info to History of the Brenham Jewish Community. --Eliyak T·C 11:06, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
REQUEST: In order to reach a greater consensus about the related "Texas Jews articles" that have been nominated for deletion, please see and add your views at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Judaism#Nominations of Texas Jews articles for deletion. Thank you, IZAK 00:17, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Judging by the sources, it looks like this person might be the wife of a notable person, and therefore isn't inherently notable. I also had trouble finding references to this person in the cites given, as a few of them didn't even mention a "Rosa" or "Toubin" or a "Levin." --slakr^\ talk / 01:29, 1 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
