Wikipedia is not a promotional medium. WP:SPIP This is a blatant advertisement for a not notable person. The majority of sources are self or articles written by the person. WP:N WP:BIO — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.24.66.14 (talk) 20:29, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Very not notable. Debresser (talk) 22:22, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I think this should be deleted, it is self-promotional and most of the links cited are not newsworthy or of any value. The person himself is part of a group of Israeli consultants that do nothing of value beside post on SnapChat, Facebook and Blogs about other companies information that was already known to the public, mentioning that he was in a bunker is not news, every Israeli as experienced being in a bunker. All the blogs that ever featured him never paid him he is not a journalist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.226.237.58 (talk) 16:03, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I think this article should not be deleted. Fuld has been featured in all of the tech industry's major publications, as well as his work been covered non-trivially by reputable sources. The value of his work is proven by his ability to keep getting work, which is shown in the different sources supplied. Forbes, The Times of Israel and The Jerusalem Post have all featured articles directly about Fuld, as well as about events and occurrences that include him. Yes, the majority of the sources are his publications, but they are all in major news outlets in the world of technology. אגם רפאלי (talk) 14:08, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I agree with אגם רפאלי. Even a cursory search using the "Find sources" links above show oodles of articles from reputable publications covering Fuld's work and reputation. I would also note that an administrator (DGG) has been working hard to improve the page along with אגם רפאלי and noted on the Talk page that "... at present... it shows at least borderline notability". On the other hand, both the editor who started this discussion and one of the delete votes are from anonymous IPs like myself. Not quite a powerful movement to delete. 77.126.89.181 (talk) 08:44, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I noticed that the IP who first proposed deletion of this article had no prior edits, not did they continue to edit Wikipedia after making this proposal. The same is true for the IP who shares my delete vote. Combined with the fact that the brother of the subject of this article was a recent victim of a hate-crime (see external link #2 on this article and see last entrance at Gush_Etzion_Junction#Attacks), I think we have sufficient reason to say these edits were likely bad-faith. Having said that, I am not sure what the consequences would be, but I urge the reviewing admin to keep this in mind. Debresser (talk) 13:54, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep obviously. Forbes says he is "The Man Helping Transform Startup Nation Into Scale-Up Nation" Geektime says he is "one of 100 most influential people in the Israeli tech industry". Atbannett (talk) 19:18, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Fuld is a very prominent figure in Israeli tech scene and online tech journalism. The article could be cleaned up a bit but the individual is notable. He writes for a bunch of real newspapers, online and print, and Forbes did a bio piece on him (link to article).Joe407 (talk) 10:33, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
