This Muboshgu deletion has the edit summary 'totally unnecessary.' Well, nothing is necessary at Wikipedia. This guy need not have an article at all - that is not necessary. We should ask ourselves, is it appropriate. I think it is. Because what he deleted follows the format within this article. We generally think it a good thing to keep to the existing acceptable format. MOS:VAR And descriptive sub-headings in good articles are seen as positives. Maybe Muboshgu can give this a think and maybe revert his deletion of an appropriate addition. Thank you Mr. M. --2604:2000:E010:1100:1D3F:B157:5F3:ECF8 (talk) 21:31, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
An editor reverted here, saying "He's not Israeli, and "playing" in Olympics that'll probably not happen isn't more noteworthy than his MLB career." As to his first point, he is incorrect. As the RS source indicates, he became an Israeli citizen. That makes him an Israeli. Perhaps the editor is confused - one does not have to be born in Israel to be Israeli. As to his second point, nobody said that being on an Olympic team is more noteworthy than his MLB career. I am not certain what led to that comment. It is, however, noteworthy, both in the text and in the lede. Because .. Olympics. The crystal ball fact that the Olympics will likely (in both our estimations) be postponed to some later date than originally scheduled does not change that. That's why for example we don't heavy handedly delete the article for example on Baseball at the 2020 Olympics. That would not be appropriate. --2604:2000:E010:1100:A5AE:3654:8F39:9794 (talk) 21:20, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
