Very little evidence of notability. Only two mentions in Google Books, [1] [2] neither of which is in any kind of depth and thus does not establish notability per WP:GNG or WP:BIO. No other reliable sources that I could find on Google: the few sources I could find are mostly WP mirrors. Everymorning (talk) 15:46, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note - this seems like a translation of the Hebrew wikipedia - [3]. There are some sources in Hebrew, e.g. - [4]. He also might have grounds to notability as WP:AUTHOR (both for his extremely well known song, and his translation work (which complicates sourcing, as he translated quite a bit)) - but I'm undecided here as of yet. In doing a BEFORE here, his Hebrew name "עמשי לוין" is key, sources in English seem to be nonexistent.Icewhiz (talk) 07:31, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree, the first thing I did when I saw this article was check the Hebrew one which is sourced. I don't see any big name Hebrew sources, so I am really not sure about the quality of the ones included, but there are some out there such as the one you included. I am as well unsure about a vote, but I think there is merit to the argument that it meets WP:GNG. - Galatz ^Talk 17:08, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete If it is the case Levin's notability derives from having written the lyrics for "Alone", it is a bit odd that there is no article about the song, nor any mention of Levin in the article on the performer who made the song famous, Zohar Argov. https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%96%D7%95%D7%94%D7%A8_%D7%90%D7%A8%D7%92%D7%95%D7%91 gives a mere mention. The other sources aren't any better: "translated by Amami Levin", as in http://kulmosnet.co.il/articles/eshed/eili/eili.htm is not significant coverage.
