Australian Council for Civil Liberties

 * – ( View AfD View log )

WP:V, The organisation referred to here appears not to exist. There was an Australian Council for Civil Liberties from 1936 to 1966 after which it changed its name to the VCCL. Now, a single person, Terry O'Gorman, describes himself as the President of the Australian Council for Civil Liberties in certain interviews and press releases, but other than that there is no reality to the organisation. There's no building, no website, no address, no contact, and no staff or membership other than Mr O'Gorman. Mr O'Gorman remains the vice-president of the Queensland Council for Civil Liberties and uses the ACCL label when he wishes to express views that are his own and would not be compatible with his QCCL role.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep but rename - the nomination is entirely incorrect, the ACCL is now known as "Liberty Victoria" (see here) which is an organisation that is regularly involved and contributing to debate on civil liberty issues in Victoria and Australia and there are plenty of sources. Happy to rename the article to its current article but deletion is entirely inappropriate. Deus et lex (talk) 21:10, 1 March 2021 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 03:05, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per Deus et lex's suggestion and rename. I have significantly re-written the page and added several IRS. There is ample IRS material for 'Liberty Victoria' such as | this and | this that I've added to page. Cabrils (talk) 22:57, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
