Delete WP:POINT, also, I'm sure there are some jews among the 100,000 foreign workers living in the KSA. Just because the KSA reports its statistics as 100% Muslim doesn't mean it counts all foreign workers. Regardless of that, if something doesn't exist as Klonimus points out, why bother making a list of it?Yuber 15:02, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Btw, the Saudi government would typically reject visa applications of foreign workers with a Jewish background.JFW | T@lk 22:17, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong Keep and allow for organic growth. In the future there may be jews in Saudi Arabia. There are several jews mentionied in the Koran and hadith, who are historical figures and thus worthy of of inclusion into a List of Saudi Arabian Jews. Perhaps editor's such as Yuber might try and expand this list. Personally I consider this article to be a stub, and I encourage wikipedia community to add to it, instead of deleting it.

- Delete. Totally unverifiable, and sneaky POV besides. Mirror Vax 12:06, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete; utterly moronic "article". There was no Saudi Arabia in ancient times, so there could not have been any Jews there. -R. fiend 15:48, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- That is untrue, Muhammed fought with several tribes of jews living around Mecca around 670 CE0. Klonimus 18:54, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- That was in the Arabian penninsula, not Saudi Arabia, which did not exist until the 20th century. -R. fiend 19:15, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedily deleted. Klonimus, if you want to make a real article, then make a real article, but don't leave worthless stuff like this here. --Golbez 20:17, May 6, 2005 (UTC)
- To explain my delete - it fit the criteria of lacking context. It was a speedy candidate. As for rejecting Jewish workers, I dunno, I once sent a package to a man named Goldstein working for an oil company in Ad Dammam, IIRC. --Golbez 20:36, May 6, 2005 (UTC)
- Dude! Instead of deleting the article you totally should've added "Some guy named Goldstein or something in Ad Dammam" to the list. Then it wouldn't have been empty and we'd have a first rate article on our hands! -R. fiend 21:02, 6 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
