Amnesty International (Hong Kong)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

A non-notable branch of Amnesty International that should be a section of the main article. Various editors (myself included) have tried to redirect the article to the main Amnesty International article but a series of IPs and SPA editors have reverted back. So delete, merge or redirect?

 * Redirect to main organisation. This article is half WP:SPAM and half WP:Coatrack for Amnesty International's human rights campaign in China. Stuff that has been added specifically about the Hong Kong branch is all from Amnesty International's own website. So potentially only marginal notabilty for that branch if any.

 * Delete no real need for redirect. Polargeo (talk) 14:04, 12 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect to main article.  Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 22:23, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable per WP:GNG, and then create a redirect to main article if editors feel that's needed. There is no evidence for the notability of the Hong Kong section; I see two non-primary sources, but since they are not in English I can't assess their significance, reliability or independence. The article is based overwhelmingly on primary sources; I lost count of the number of times I read a sentence starting with something like "Amnesty International Hong Kong" believes...", and Fred the Oyster is right that this article is being used as a WP:COATRACK. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:48, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
