- Third intifada (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
This is essentially a re-hash of some November 2006 news stories. Wikipedia is not a news outlet. A current Google News search yields numerous hits regarding similar threats to launch a third intifada due to the current Temple Mount situation, which illustrates that - as Wikipedia is not a crystal ball - maybe we should not have an article on every threat to launch a conflict, but actually wait for a conflict to occur before writing about it.

- Keep while Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, the symbol of a new intifada, and the use of the term when discussing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, is itself worthy of an encyclopedia article. KazakhPol 07:07, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Löschen-- I agree with the nominator. For all we know, this will turn out to be just another Hamas threat. Suggesting that this deserves an article is crystal ballism. Mangojuicetalk 05:17, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]- Move, then merge Having looked a little more closely, I note that this event is not covered at Khaled Mashal, and probably should be. I suggest we move the page to Talk:Khaled Mashal/Third intifada, and then make a note on Talk:Khaled Mashal that the information is there so it can be merged into the article. (Move, rather than delete, though, because of the GFDL requirements.) Mangojuicetalk 16:02, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete WP:Crystal. --The Way 08:26, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or merge - While WP:CRYSTAL doesn't technically apply since the article covers past statements, and WP:NOT only applies to Wikipedia not being a primary source in regards to news, this should be deleted or merged for other reasons; namely, the article only consists of one statement by Khaled Mashal then two statements not necessarily connected to the subject--i.e. WP:OR. So, WP:OR applies here as well as WP:N since the article only cites one source referring to the third intifada. --notJackhorkheimer (talk / contribs) 23:20, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
