message: The Reference to the Poll seems to be a broken link: "Poll: Only 47 percent of Palestinians would vote for prisoners", Ha'aretz 19/06/2006
At least I just get an advert on that page... If I do a quick search I find this document:
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=723105&contrassID=1&subContrassID=0&sbSubContrassID=0
But that seems to show the support for the Prisoner's document as 77%, not 47%. Unless document in the original link can be found, then we should show the degree of support as 77%... or at least state that the degree of support is in dispute and provide more than one working link.

replies: text: What the polls showed is that most Palestinians support the document itself (up to 80%), but less than half would have voted in that referendum that Mahmoud Abbas was planning for late July because Palestinians saw the calling for a referendum as another example of factional bickering of the sort they were fed up with. Too bad the link is broken. Ramallite (talk) 12:19, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I propose merging this page into Palestinian prisoners in Israel. Any opposition? Shalom11111 (talk) 11:55, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Coverage of the prisoners document in the main article seems about right as it is. There are more than enough RS discussing this specific topic to warrent a stand alone article (e.g. ) What is the basis for your suggestion? Dlv999 (talk) 17:07, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: While the subject of the article seems notable and there are some sources on the web about it, I think it'd be best to cover in the main article of 'Palestinian prisoners in Israel'. Currently, this article has a very short section there which doesn't discuss important key points, so instead of expanding that section, we should merge this article into it and let it have its own, well written section there. That article is not particularly long at all, with only 53,887 bytes. Shalom11111 (talk) 17:10, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with you that the topic is notable. In Wikipedia notable topics warrant their own article. I have no problem with you expanding the section in the main article, but you haven't given any policy based reasons or evidence that would support removing the stand alone article on this topic (which you agree is notable).

replies: text: That's the thing, I have no specific policy based reason for this merge proposal of this article, which we both agree is notable. It could be more of a preference type of thing, I assume. I just think that in most cases, including this one, we should aim at making the main article ("Palestinian prisoners in Israel" in this case) as inclusive as possible and discuss sub-topics in a thorough way only in those main articles, even if that subject may meet the WP:N guidelines. It's more organized this way and gives readers a better view on the coverage on the entire subject in one article. Shalom11111 (talk) 23:06, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

text: Since you're the only user objecting this proposal, Dlv999, I just want to ask it one last time before I leave this: have you changed your mind or do you still oppose this merge? Shalom11111 (talk) 05:20, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm afraid you haven't provided policy/evidence based arguments for the proposed changes so my objection remains. Having said that, your suggestions to include more material in the main article can be done without deleting this one and I would encourage you to carry on with that part of your proposal.

replies: text: Agree article should be kept and the templates removed. Carolmooredc  (Talkie-Talkie) 00:53, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
