British Landlords Association

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable organisation. Sources are all completely useless, with one blackhat SEO source, the organisation's website, and a cite to an irrelevant book (that predates the subject by seven years). BEFORE gives me nothing (String: "British Landlords Association"). —A little blue Bori v^_^v  Onward to 2020 22:26, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete: name-drops, Fails to meet WP:N - Tatupiplu'talk
 * Delete Does meet WP:CORP or WP:GNG notability criteria; no depth-of-coverage in reliable sources. OhNo itsJamie Talk 23:34, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, the fourth source, the one that A little blue Bori doesn't mention, contains the words "British landlords association" but is not about this British Landlords Association. That's two out of four sources that are completely off-topic and another two that are by the BLA itself. According to Companies House it's a one-employee organization, so the claim that it's the third largest organization of landlords in Britain appears doubtful. No source (not even their own website) confirms the membership figure, and since apparently every Joe, Dick and Harry can become a "member" for free, it's meaningless anyway.

 * Delete, Per above, article dose not satisfy WP:CORP. Alex-h (talk) 11:56, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per NCORP and as WP:SPAM. The account that created this claims to be a high school student, which is odd, but is certainly a spammer, based on its editing history. If they had written articles for their favorite band/actor/street, this would make sense and we could excuse such editing, in 2007. A baby born in that year or shortly before would be in high school now. Black Lives Matter activists do not write Facebook articles in support of Putin's policies, and British teenagers do not write stubs for landlords for free. In 2020, however, everybody is on notice that we are a charity, not not a free web host for spam for their parents or whomever else. Bearian (talk) 14:41, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Evidently nowadays the thing amongst mercenaries is to claim you're a high school student in an effort to avoid scrutiny of your writing. The "high school student" claim should be taken with a grain of salt, if not the whole mine. —A little blue Bori  v^_^v  Onward to 2020 19:15, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
