Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sacha Dratwa

:The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. As many participants point out, this is a clear case of WP:BLP1E, and we have to take this very seriously when the one event is negative or controversial. If he does continue to do things which are noteworthy, an article can be recreated, but only then - Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. - filelakeshoe 10:38, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Person only known for one event. Notability is not temporary - in six months no-one will remember this person, even the event isn't really notable long term. Travelbird (talk) 05:00, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep. I strongly disagree. Dratwa's first news mention was just a few days prior to his rather bigoted photo coming to light, wherein he was discussed as the new head of Israel's social media fight, just when the IDF's Twitter began to directly engage terrorist groups via the internet. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/israel-social-media-war-run-26-old-201813409.html How the IDF responds to this, and the greater discussion it causes about race and race relations, certainly make it noteworthy. If Mr. Dratwa's career as the head of the "cyber propaganda squad", per his own words http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/israel-social-media-war-run-26-old-201813409.html, continues unabated after this incident, there is a very good chance he will do things that continue to be noteworthy.

  • Keep He's a top spokesman for the IDF. Per nom's own words, "Notability is not temporary." Once notable, always notable.--Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 23:45, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
  • I would strongly encourage editors to read Wikipedia's policy on people known for only one event : Wikipedia:ONEVENT#People_notable_only_for_one_event and WP:NOTNEWS Travelbird (talk) 05:29, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep per ThatBajoranGuy. This is not a case of ONEEVENT; while he has been getting a burst of news coverage lately in regard to the picture incident, his notability stems from his inherent position (a top spokesman for the IDF), not the picture event.

:How do you decided that he is top spokesman?He is merely leutnant.

::I said a top spokesman (not the), which fits the descriptions of him given in the sources. LonelyBoy2012 (talk) 17:45, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
