Do we really need this article? We have articles on big-ticket people like Leah and moderately interesting people like Zilpah, but I don't see that this one adds anything. Ignatz mice•talk 13:06, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to her husband, Ashur. A mention in just one verse of the Bible means there will never be enough material for a stand-alone article. Fails WP:BASIC and WP:NOTDIR as a purely genealogical entry; WikiProject:Religion's Notability Guide says "brief descriptions in genealogical records or church histories of specific individuals are not considered specific indicators of notability."

Correction: two verses in 1 Chr 4 "(5) Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah. (6) Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni and Haahashtari. These were the descendants of Naarah." This doesn't alter my argument. Dricherby (talk) 15:31, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment the start of the articles problems is that it treats the Bible as a reliable source as regards its historicity. Barney the barney barney (talk) 16:01, 27 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and Redirect to Ashur#Wives as I have now done to the other wife Helah --> merges and redirects to Ashur#Wives, since to create separate articles about Ashur's wives is nothing but WP:CONTENTFORKING. Not enough info at this point and per user Dricherby. IZAK (talk) 22:07, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
