Anak (society)
Nothing but a link to, and summary of, the club's website. Tom Harrison Talk 00:34, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. According to the article : "Due to ANAK's secret nature, the accuracy of the claims made on its website is nearly impossible to verify.". There goes WP:Verifiability and WP:ORG. Equendil Talk 01:13, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete, We don't need every book club in the world to have a page. Hera1187 07:24, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per NN and impossible to meet WP:V Ydam 11:21, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete even if it were verifiable I doubt it would be worth more than a mention in the Georgia Tech article. --Tango 15:18, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete. Non-notable, unverifiable, and really nothing more than an advertisement for this group. Moreschi 20:53, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. There is an assertion of notability, but this is inherently unverifiable and almost certainly not notable. Grand  master  ka  18:31, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. The Anak Society is the subject of one of 20 common questions about Georgia Tech listed on Georgia Tech's website. It reads, "Many of the student clubs today owe their beginnings to ANAK including the school's yearbook, newspaper, and Student Government Association." This is verification as well as a strong argument for notability. MaxVeers 00:59, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment From your link : "The "T" from Tech Tower has been stolen numerous times in Georgia Tech's history". Should we have an article about that notable "T" ? Equendil Talk 01:10, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * That "T" is notable enough for an article. Thanks for the idea! Note that was tounge-in-cheek.—Disavian (talk/contribs) 06:16, 14 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep or Merge with Georgia Tech article. MaxVeers shows that the information in the article IS verifiable via the official Institute website, making arguments for unverifiability rather moot. Further, while ANAK may be somewhat non-notable on a world scale (since it is unique to the Institute), it IS rather notable among Tech Alumni and affiliated persons/organizations/businesses, which at least makes a case for the article to be merged, if not just left alone.LaMenta3 06:02, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Unfortunately, the nature of secret societies makes it hard for them to pass WP:V. However, there IS public information that I feel gives them enough verifiability and notability for the article to remain on wikipedia. Especially since they (could have) started all of the important organizations on campus. If they did, then they're just as notable as Funk masta G-Wayne. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 06:16, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
