This articles, as many containing list of Jews, are simply awful. How can anybody feel free to publish publicly the religion appartenance of anyone? Thankfully, Nazi time is over, and that kind of pages should be deleted as soon as possible.

- Keep. This is one of a series, with the parent at List of Jews by country. Somehow I don't think they're kept to single people out for persecution, nor is it based on "religion", but ethnicity/cultural identity. Postdlf 22:44, 12 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I don't think divulging the fact that Alfred Dreyfus was Jewish constitutes a breach of privacy. Rather I think the fact is important for anyone trying to gain a better understanding of history. Eixo 23:26, 12 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This article has existed almost a year now. I see no reason why this article should be removed.EvilPhoenix
- Keep. We have thousands of lists that are equally liable to offend (and are also equally informative and encyclopedic). -- BDAbramson thimk 23:54, 2005 May 12 (UTC)
- Keep - thankfully, Nazi time is over, being Jewish should be nothing to be ashamed of, and a collaborative encyclopedia should be free to identify prominent individuals publicly holding to a religion. Samaritan 00:05, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep in memory of List of Saudi Arabian Jews Klonimus 04:14, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep — I don't see a problem with such a list, any more than a List of French Muslims, for example. — RJH 14:43, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Listcruft. Just because we have thousands of lists like this is no reason to keep this one. --Carnildo 18:03, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete in memory of List of Saudi Arabian Jews. I think consistency is what Wikipedia desperately needs. Grue 18:22, 15 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't get your point. The List of Jews by country series list Jews from 96 different countries, including 9 Arab ones. That's pretty consistent. Juko
