MITOC
Thank you for your contribution on the MIT Outing Club. Per Wikipedia policy on reliable sources and notability, articles should have coverage from independent third-party sources. I've found that including information and citations from articles at the Google News Archive to establish more reliable sources and notability on this topic is an excellent way of doing this. I would encourage you to do the same for this article. Cheers! Madcoverboy (talk) 16:20, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Rensselaer Outing Club
A tag has been placed on Rensselaer Outing Club requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guidelines for people and for organizations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.
