Article fails to meet WP:BIO and WP:ANYBIO standards. A search turns up some secondary sources regarding the subject, mostly consisting of articles regarding his arrest and links to YouTube videos but no significant coverage from credible and independent sources. While his activities and imprisonment made the news, that alone doesn't seem enough to warrant an article. Furthermore, the Jewish Task Force appears to be solely an online based political organization of little to no significance. Having your own web site, a public access show in New York and making YouTube videos does not establish notability or relevance. The page also has a history of vandalism.

- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2016 June 20. —cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 23:18, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep There is enough evidence to back up his notability. The history of vandalism, is in fact a history of whitewashing the article. To my opinion, this AfD is another attempt of whitewashing as this is only the second/third edit of a brand new editor. I even give a sockpuppet alert as the new editor seems well acquainted to the rules and policies, much more then you can expect from a new user. The Banner talk 08:44, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Speedy keep A convicted terrorist who easily passes WP:GNG. Article should probably be moved to Chaim Ben Pesach, the name by which (I think) he's better known, as opposed to his legal name. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 11:40, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

- Keep The ample reliable and verifiable sources about the subject passes the notability standard. The argument about vandalism is a good reason to protect the page, but a very poor reason to delete it. With an edit history of three edits, two of which are related to this AfD, it appears that we're dealing with an WP:SPA or an out-and-out sockpuppet. Alansohn (talk) 14:19, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep and support move to Chaim Ben Pesach per WP:COMMONNAME. Pburka (talk) 15:01, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep: Passes GNG. --Dcirovic (talk) 16:46, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
