The result was Keep. The main argument for deletion is based on the idea that the individuals on the list are not independently notable, although the nomination also mentions potential POV problems. If someone were creating articles on these individuals then that would be a valid argument, but individual items on a list are not required to have sufficient notability in and of themselves. POV problems can be fixed by editing the article and are not a reason for deleting an article. Any merger/renaming/etc of this content can be discussed on the list's talk page.

What is the notability of a list of civilian casualties? A newspaper mention of a casualty doesn't make that person notable. Nor is the subject of "List of casualties of ..." notable. Do we have such a list for the 9/11 terrorist acts? I have a minor suspicion this list was created more to make a point, than for its encyclopedical value. The entries are clearly supposed to make a point: "elderly shepherd", "pregnant woman", "sleeping children". If this article were encyclopedical, it would not go into such details, but just mention the facts.Debresser (talk) 16:58, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This list was created after a group of editors continually resisted adding Palestinian casualties to List of attacks on non-combatants in the Second Intifada (see talk page archive [1]). That list was subsequently renamed to reflect its Israeli only contents. Since summer of 2009, both List of Israeli civilian casualties in the Second Intifada and List of Palestinian civilian casualties in the Second Intifada have been copied into the article Civilian casualties in the Second Intifada. Given that we now have two spin-off lists linking back to one main article, I cannot support deleting one without the other as that would be POV. The information in both lists is useful for those who want to see a breakdown of casualties from this period in the conflict. The Palestinian list still needs to be expanded and so will require a separate page as it will be too long for the new parent article once completed. Tiamuttalk 17:21, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - What is the notability of a list of civilian casualties? Probably about the same as the notability of a list of Palestinian rocket attacks I would imagine.
Were any of these lists created more to make a point than for their encyclopedical value ? Who knows but I do know that this kind of information, whatever it is, casualties on either side, armed attacks by either belligerent in the conflict need to be handled consistently and neutrally. Nominating one article is not the right approach in my view. Sean.hoyland - talk 18:11, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
