The result was Keep, but I'm going to tag it for {{sources}}...If there's no sources added in a couple of weeks or months, I'd strongly recommend another AfD for failing WP:V. — Scientizzle 22:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Cannot find any reason why this guy is notable. None of the English google hits for Dov Gazit are for him, and from what I can make out neither are most of the Hebrew ones. The most that can be said about him is that he was a chief-commander of the IAF (Israeli Air Force) Technical School in Haifa, but I do not believe that is a notable position.

- Yes, there is another Dov Gazit listed in Google - head of the 2ooo Gazit report, former Gaza administrator and Brigadier General. But this Dov Gazit precedes Google and is an important contributor to the Israeli Airfoce. He was a member of Haganah and commander of Air Force technical school, and most interestingly, this Dov Gazit brought the first lion back to Jerusalem Biblical Zoo, where it lived for some 30 years. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.49.94.160 (talk) 21:40, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The article brings in info from Slavic-language sources (not cited), so it's not surprising to find few or no Google hits in English. His notability seems well established in the article. -- Rob C. alias Alarob 01:16, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The article cites an individual linked to Zionism in Russia, service in the Haganah, and a human interest portion (the story of the lion acquired for the Jerusalem Biblical Zoo. -- Steven alias StevenBirnam 04:17, 15 September 2007 (UTC) — StevenBirnam (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
