Israel Model Railways Club

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable club. A local railroad hobby club with 30 members. No independent coverage to be found anywhere. Claims of being the "first such club in the Middle East" are not verified. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 18:56, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I have added a few sources now. Though it's still uncertain if the article meets basic notability guidelines. Shalom11111 (talk) 08:19, 20 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've actually deleted two of the sources which Shalom11111 added as they had nothing to do with this club at all. This source talks about a model railroad set up at the Jerusalem rail station as part of an historic exhibit, but makes no mention of the IMRC; while this source is a YouTube video about a model railroad club in Haifa. This second source is interesting for one thing: it belies this article's claim that the IMRC (located in Netzer Sereni, not in Haifa) is the "only model railroad club in the middle east". And because that claim is suspect, so is the third source that Shalom11111 added, this blog on the website of the magazine Eretz (not to be confused with the major daily Haaretz), which echoes that claim of uniqueness.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete - I have been convinced, WikiDan61 is right. As it stands now, the article should be deleted. Shalom11111 (talk) 14:58, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
