Fails WP:GNG. Nothing found to indicate notability whatsoever. Only blogs and other non-reliable sources. I don't believe that any of the CSD criteria fit for this particular topic so I brought it here instead. Majora (talk) 23:13, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete It's kinda embarrassing we even have to have this conversation. One source, their blog. Not trying to soapbox as this isn't the venue, but seems this is a great example of an exploitable hole in our CSD policy. Drewmutt ( ^ᴥ^ ) talk  23:28, 12 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete: Google Scholar and Google News search reveal no mention of the topic. The only source for the article is the organization's own blog.  I poked around it a little, but I couldn't find a "news" or "media" page. On the "About us" page, there's no mention of membership or involvement in the broader community.

 * Delete No evidence of notability. There might be a reasonable argument for speedy deletion under CSD A-11 and/or CSD G-11. This looks a lot like promotion of something the author(s) cooked up. -Ad Orientem (talk) 23:57, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete this is not a real topic of interest in folklore,. Should be removed. User:smithriedel
 * Delete per above. It might also be useful to delete, which is the original location of this article's content and currently stands as an unlikely redirect to Folklore. Daß &thinsp; Wölf 01:52, 13 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Good suggestion. I've sent it to RfD. -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:08, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete This is promotional, and the GNG isn't met. Exemplo347 (talk) 17:22, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete As unmitigated tripe. Non-notable blog musings. GenQuest  "Talk to Me" 22:54, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:SNOW. Why wait?  Not worth a redirect to Cochrane's Craft, since it is only tangential. --Bejnar (talk) 22:34, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable, non-verifiable. --Lockley (talk) 05:56, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
