As most of the sources provided on this "pioneer of the Israeli Software Industry" are either press releases or listings of board members, I would say notability has not been sufficiently demonstrated. - Biruitorul ^Talk 14:29, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Out of 12 references provided in the article, 4 are press releases, 2 are Advisory Board and Board of Trustees listings, and the rest (6!) are newspaper articles or interviews. More references will be provided in the near future. YakiD (talk) 18:48, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The subject of the article is indeed one of the most notable figures in the Israeli IT industry. The article needs to be improved and defluffed but not deleted. There is a lot of news on the web that can be used to source such a copyedit, good and bad, ups and downs of Goldstein's past. --Shuki (talk) 17:42, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The subject is notable, I found plenty of additional reliable sources in a quick Google search. Marokwitz (talk) 06:56, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Can't say whether he's a "pioneer of the Israeli Software Industry", but there are enough reliable sources available ([1], [2], [3]) to satisfy the criteria of WP:GNG. — Bill william compton^Talk 14:18, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
