Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to UCT Hisory and Current Affairs Society, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you.

Clubs, societies and notabliity
Hi, you may find it helpful to take some time to read Non-commercial organizations which explains the notability criteria for such organizations. In general, it can be quite hard to provide suitable references for a University society to demonstrate the expected level of impact required and it helps a lot if there are national newspaper articles, books and magazines which explicitly mention the society as a key part of their story. The more of these you can find, the more likely that the article will stick permanently rather than being subject to a future deletion. Thanks Fæ (talk) 15:02, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of UCT History and Current Affairs Society


The article UCT History and Current Affairs Society has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * The program for a student society which doesn't appear to have notability independent of its institution or the people/organisations who have given talks to the society members

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Kateshortforbob talk 14:14, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

UCT History and Current Affairs Society
Hi, though the article was deleted as a result of deletion discussion, there were very few opinions expressed. If you let me know I would be happy to userfy the deleted article so you can continue working on a draft version and hopefully unambiguously demonstrate notability in the near future.
