Joel Leyden

Autobiography. Major claim to fame seems to be that he created the website Israel news agency. Delete Rasmus (talk) 15:10, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. But needs more organization and assertion of relevance or impact. But there is some notability there. And almost surely self-written. A Google search did turn up a decent number of results.--Esprit15d 16:37, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep bio per nom. Simply perform a search for Joel Leyden on Google Web and or Google News - you will find over 116,000 entries. Those numbers should speak for themselves. IsraelBeach 19:49, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Keep. No valid reason to delete this per comments above. Editing can improve articles. -- JJay 21:52, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep per above. Werdna648^T/_C\^@ 10:03, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete - still looks to be auto-biographical to me. Nowhere does IsraelBeach deny being Joel Leyden. And this reads like a resume, not an encyclopedia. -Jcbarr 18:23, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Joel Leyden states that he created these articles here, which explains the hagiographic gloss. - Banyan Tree 19:56, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
