The result was REDIRECT to Order of the Arrow. There's little support for retaining the standalone article, and it's now been culled to contain so little substance it is an obvious candidate for a redirect as largely implied by Gadget850. -Splash - tk 23:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Abooikpaagun Lodge
I'm concerned that this unreferenced article doesn't meet WP:ORG as while articles like Scouting in Arkansas is a possibly reasonable article (if poorly done), the various districts within it are not. What next? Individual scout troops? FrozenPurpleCube 17:27, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:ORG: "Individual chapters of national and international organizations are usually not notable enough to warrant a separate article unless sufficient notability is established through reliable sources." For another ongoing deletion discussion about a local Order of the Arrow lodge, see Articles for deletion/Gabe-Shi-Win-Gi-Ji-Kens. Deor 17:48, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Scouting in Arkansas per WikiProject Scouting policies. --Gadget850 ( Ed) 07:23, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Can't recommend that anything be lodged other than the name, as there's nothing sourced there. Perhaps a delete followed by a redirect?  FrozenPurpleCube 13:18, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * At least 80% of the article duplicates material found in Order of the Arrow, so there really isn't much to move. The article is currently tagged for a merge and a delete.  --Gadget850 ( Ed) 14:51, 21 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge to Scouting in Arkansas or De Soto Area Council. For the record, I'd like to not that the policy says usually. If this were a well-crafted article that was sourced and had a good history, I'd say keep. --evrik (talk) 14:58, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep WP:ORG is just a guideline (and isn't flexible enough to deal with large national organizations), and I think that merging the article would make Scouting in Arkansas too big. Alternately we should create De Soto Area Council and merge it to that. --evrik (talk) 01:43, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
 * This isn't a large national organization, and I don't see anything that's important about this lodge in particular. What's worth keeping about this page, and what's sourceable to someone *besides* this lodge?  FrozenPurpleCube 01:45, 24 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. Non-notable chapter of national org. - Aagtbdfoua 13:44, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
