[edit] POV tag
Why? Tiamat 16:48, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
- To start with, because it is one-sided, and it relies almost entirely on a highly biased essay from a magazine which fails WP:RS. When providing context from an Israeli newspaper, this article does not link to Haaretz directly, but quotes a biased secondary-source which is clearly cherrypicking material that supports its thesis.

I have no idea who Jihad Shaar is or what his relevance to Faris Odeh is. This article is about a child whose image of throwing a rock at a tank has immortalized, widely published, and who has since become a symbol of Palestinian resistance. Please use the regular AfD process if you think he's really not all that notable. Thanks. Tiamuttalk 19:17, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- The main issue is WP:ONEEVENT and also a bit of WP:NOT#MEMORIAL. I've AfD'd. пﮟოьεԻ 57 20:52, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- The image is of him wasn't taken at the time of his death, has been published worldwide since then, and is widely recognized as a symbol of the Palestinian resistance. I don't think WP:ONEEVENT is applicable here at all. Tiamuttalk 01:29, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Image
The image is not on this page. I'm guessing it has something to do with copyright. could somebody who knows about these things make it clear why the image isn't on the page. thanks. Delad (talk) 01:25, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
- You beat me to it. It's a justified use of a copyrighted image according to fair use doctrine and wikipedia's non-free content criteria. We can use copyrighted images if they're very famous and central to the notability of our article's subject; cf. 1968 Olympics Black Power salute, Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima, etc. <eleland/talkedits> 01:40, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
