I added the vfd tag to this page because the two case examples, Tel Aviv and Dubai, seem to be unverifiable. There is no clear evidence that there is a single Chinatown in the Middle East. While there might actually be one, this page contribute no encyclopedia-worthy information. freestylefrappe 19:24, May 27, 2005 (UTC)

- The supplied link gives some evidence of a Chinatown in Dubai (which is hardly surprising as Dubai is a truly cosmopolitan city), not sure about the Tel Aviv one. Anyway, any verified information can be merged into the Chinatown article and included in the List of Chinatowns, as this article gives no real information beyond the fact that they (supposedly) exist. -R. fiend 02:20, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Keep and expand. Interesting article that's part of a Chinatowns in _____ series. I will try to contribute towards improving the article. -ÅfÇ++ 03:06, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)- Actually, I doubt that an article as in depth and informative as the other Chinatowns in ___ articles. I don't believe that there are any other Chinatowns in the Middle East and an initial search for information on the Tel Aviv Chinatown is proving difficult. I suggest treating Dubai Chinatown as its own article much like other Dubai developments (Palm Islands, The World (archipelago), Burj Dubai, Dubai Land) -ÅfÇ++ 05:26, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Very weak keep if there are none. This article is here as part of the series from the {{chinatown}} template. If this article is deleted, the template should also be changed. Or maybe update the template and then Delete this article. Vegaswikian 06:15, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
