African American Defense League

WP:NOTNEWS. This article was created in the aftermath of the 2016 shooting of Dallas police officers because of the group's apparently violent anti-police ideology, which is reflected in the WP:RS. However, all of the coverage on this group seems to have dropped off completely after news coverage of the Dallas shooting died down. I cannot find any RS talking about this group that was published more recently, or before the Dallas shooting occurred, or something that is completely independent of the Dallas shooting. Therefore, I don't really believe this topic can stand on its own merit. Love of Corey (talk) 20:50, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete for lack of notability. The sources cited are generally not about African American Defense League and tend to only incidentally mention it. Therefore, they do not contribute to notability because they are not "significant coverage" within the meaning of GNG. To the extent that the article is about Mauricelm-Lei Millere, there are also BIO1E concerns. Best, Kevin ( aka L235 · t · c) 20:02, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
