Auckland Student Movement

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable organisation. No independent refs and googling for the name isn't giving me hits with in depth coverage in independent sources. Stuartyeates (talk) 00:19, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Hmmmm While *some* NZ university student associations are notable (often due to their long history and the notable people who have been involved in them), AUT's is borderline, to say the least. I would suggest, if this article can't be expanded to show genuine notability, that this should be smerged into the AUT article, with no prejudice against it returning to an independent article if notability can be shown AND/OR(?) if it can be expanded into something more encyclopedic. I certainly wouldn't like to see this as a precedent for other NZ student association articles though - those of the country's six "old" universities would certainly have some notability, as might some others which have articles. AUT's simply hasn't been around long enough to have gained that notability yet. Grutness...wha?  04:18, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Auckland University of Technology seems like a snae option. Stuartyeates (talk) 07:05, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Aye, well we jus' had a wee fall o' snae here ;) Grutness...wha?  00:18, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree with Grutness. Merge to Auckland University of Technology without prejudice for later recreation if reliable sources can be found, and without setting a precedent for other NZ student associations.- gadfium 23:09, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge as per Gadfium and Grutness. NealeFamily (talk) 06:27, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
