Buddhist Nation

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I want to keep this article but I can't find anything online related to this organization. Without WP:V and WP:RS to support the existence of "Buddhist Nation" much less its notability, I've sadly brought it here. If anyone can find more substantial information to support this organization article, I'd be open to withdrawing this AfD nomination. Pigman 17:04, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: No sources at all. Maybe it is not even real?  Perhaps by the time this AfD should be closing, some will be added. - Rjd0060 17:38, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Google search for ""Buddhist Nation" African-American" returns no indication of an actual organization. Sounds like something thought up one day to me. Delete. — Verrai 17:50, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of notability per WP:ORG. Hard to establish notability, given that I can't find any references that discuss this group. B figura  (talk) 21:58, 14 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Do Not Delete Buddhist Nation is a name change of the former Black Buddhist Community in America, a organization popularized among urban american youth. It is notable in that it is the only African American Buddhist Sangha. I found several online references to the group listed under the subject: Black Buddhist. As it regards citations, why not hold this article to the same standard as we do such articles as American Zen Teachers Association, Buddhist Churches of America, Buddhist Women's Association, Institute of Buddhist Studies and International Buddhist Temple, to name a few?

 * Do not delete I am the author of the article Buddhist Nation. Every religious organization is "something thought up one day"... I'm interested in improving the article to better meet Wikipedia standards. In the mean time I think the deletion notice should be removed. Mjksdj 00:33, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - Unsourced. If independent sources covering it are added, then maybe it can be kept. Mike6271 10:33, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
