Braemar Community Association

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Article's subject is a homeowners association for which neither the primary author or myself can seem to establish notability. Braemar, itself, does not appear on maps, nor is it a census-designated place. The area is correctly located in Linton Hall, Virginia, which is CDP. I have moved relevant historical material from this article to Linton Hall. Mmoyer 15:05, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator. This article asserts notability but does not establish it.  Even if the statement about being the "largest para-government structure in western Prince William County" could be verified, it's a fairly dubious claim to notability.

 * Keep This article isn't perfect, it has notability, it doesnt establish it, but it can be improved. 10,000 people live there, it obviosuly wont appear on the census for obvious reasons, and it appears on google maps. 82.43.111.162 16:23, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and give the author some time to add secondary sources (and Google Maps is certainly not enough here). There are some claims of notability, for example the awards mentioned. If this can be properly backed with reliable sources, then the subject is probably notable. If, however, sources are not added (or do not exist) then the article should be deleted. In the meantime, leave the notability warning on the article. --B. Wolterding 16:49, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: Article has been tagged for notability for a month prior to AFD. Mmoyer 21:08, 30 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete a homeowner's association isn't a neighborhood, it's a subsection of a neighborhood. There are no citations as to who gave out the awards claimed. As far as we know, they were given out by the town. DarkAudit 17:15, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - it's not a place, it's an association, and there are community associations all over the world, as far as I know. How does this one stand out and become encyclopedic? The article doesn't really give us much to work with in that vein. Tony Fox (arf!) 20:37, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. My vote would be otherwise if this were about a neighborhood rather than a homeowner association.  Burntsauce 23:46, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Neighbourhoods in major cities are notable, but community associations aren't. This isn't even the only Braemar Community Association around, so if it were kept it'd have to be disambiguated anyway. -- Charlene 02:42, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
