Only one sentence actually about the yeshiva; rest is fluffy un-footnoted stuff about another institution run by the same congregation. Orange Mike | Talk 18:02, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete: No evidence of notability; I found only one (fairly routine) news article. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:58, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
- I've added more substance to the history page. The institution is state registered and accredited. Several hundred students have passed through and some are successful leaders in their industries, etc. The article is notable. RS543 (talk) 06:04, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
- Can you explain, in terms of Wikipedia's notability standards how this organization is notable? We aren't interested in why you think it's important; that has no relevance here. Please illustrate specifically using reliable independent sources how this organization meets either WP:GNG or WP:NORG. Thanks, RS543. 174.212.208.18 (talk) 23:15, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete The two articles in The Jewish Ledger (2008 here and 2014 here) provide some level of coverage, but these are typical pieces written in local Jewish newspapers and not the in-depth coverage in independent reliable and verifiable sources needed to establish notability. I couldn't find anything else in a Google search. Alansohn (talk) 15:29, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
