*Weak Keep: news coverage seems to be global and work with GNG. Gerblinpete (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 08:56, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [reply]

Comment did you see the depth and quality of coverage? I just removed some sources, such as a video from Good Deeds Day's own YouTube. Look through contribution history and you'll see a good chunk of info added into the article is a user name that is the same as the article title. Graywalls (talk) 14:12, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why are we not finding any English sources for supposedly globally notable thing? Graywalls (talk) 23:04, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How does your question even START to relate to my opinion? My opinion is that this is a major community day in Israel and hence notable. There is sufficient SIGCOV to support this. I never spoke about anything international. Why would that even matter? The population of Israel is 10 million people. Is this some kind of deflection from my opinion and sources? If you have questions for other people, please ask elsewhere! gidonb (talk) 00:59, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In addition to irrelevant, it also is untrue. Consider: [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. That's just SOME of the English-language coverage in just ONE fine English-language newspaper. Please check before asking and, more important, do a WP:BEFORE ahead of nominating an article! gidonb (talk) 01:22, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, abundant RS coverage demonstrated. We might quibble over whether this has been adequately shown to be a global phenomenon (although a scan of Google News suggests it is), but it has certainly been shown above to have ample GNG-compliant coverage within Israel. (In the "things on AFD that make you go hmm" department, I will note that the two delete votes claiming no RS coverage came after a comment providing two facially reliable sources, and did not state any grounds for considering them unreliable.) -- Visviva (talk) 00:37, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per multiple reliable sources provided above. Cavarrone 09:39, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Something doesn't have to be global to be notable - evidently big in Israel and with some coverage elsewhere. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:34, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
