Australian flag society

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable political advocacy group. No evidence provided that the group is in any way notable or significant. The two people listed as supporters of the society probably require better referencing,

Note: there is also the Flag Society of Australia, a seemingly separate group as they claim a "a strict neutrality with regard to the continuing "Great Australian Flag Debate" - the question of whether or not the Australian flag should be changed", certainly not the position of this article. Nor is it the Australian National Flag Association, which has a substantially similar polict position but claims to be founded in 1983, 20 years before this group.

 * Delete - thought it was going to be a keep, as I assumed it was the one involved with the republican movement in the 1990s (a la Malcolm Turnbull). Evidently not. No demonstration of notability. --Yeti Hunter (talk) 15:30, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as COPYVIO from the Facebook page of the Australian Flag Society. For those of you who can't access that page, the entire article comes from the Facebook page, including the distinctive punctuation, except the unsourced claims that two famous individuals support the organization (I have deleted those claims as BLP violations).  There is no salvageable non-infringing prior version.  Baileypalblue (talk) 17:10, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
