Comment- Not to be confused with First International Bank of Israel, I found citation of it being "Largest bank in North Dakota", so it may be worth keeping it for that reason, although the sourcing could certainly use some improvement. Whosethose (talk) 02:15, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: would we keep an article based only on the subject's merit as being the largest bank in, say, McAllen, Texas? North Dakota has the same size population as McAllen. Other than an occasional small deal or lawsuit, I couldn't find any news coverage about this bank. Owen× ☎ 21:21, 8 December 2023 (UTC) Changed to Keep per Sammi Brie's thorough work on sourcing. Thank you! Owen× ☎ 19:07, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep I've given it a go to see if I can't improve this article. Seems to be just enough coverage. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 05:14, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Sammi Brie began adding sources. While we are at it we probably need to remove the Forbes (contributor) WP:FORBESCON article from references - it was in there before the AfD. Lightburst (talk) 15:09, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
