Civic initiative Czechia

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Topic does not appear to have received significant coverage. Article being used as a Coatrack to push another agenda. C679 08:59, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment I have removed protection from the article, as it is at AfD, however it will have to be reprotected if the edit warring continues. --kelapstick(bainuu) 11:06, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete as not notable. Sources are about "Czechia", not about this association.--Yopie (talk) 12:35, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete as non notable organization dealing with a fringe topic. Sourcing is telling. The coatrack and behavioural elements surrounding the editing of it are not themselves reasons to delete, but don't exactly help. Martinp (talk) 23:59, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - I found a few hits here and there, notably this which appears to be about the group rather than their proposed name for the Czech Republic. I also found a few mentions of their name in websites which discuss "Czechia" (which apparently does not have widespread public support), but overall there is a lack of reliable sources that significantly discuss the group.

 * Comment - A search using both of the initiative's Czech names found more hits (English only gives 25), but as I have no knowledge of Czech I have no idea if any of these are reliable and/or significant. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:38, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
 * There are indeed some mentions in Czech, but some of them are not independent, and some located by google are actually about an unrelated organization "Obcasnska iniciativa Cesko bez koure", loosely "Civic initiative for a nonsmoking Czech Republic/Czech lands/Czechia" (take your pick!). By the way the prague post article in the unsigned Weak Delete above is a good find, but it is at most a passing mention about the group in an article covering the whole so-called controversy as a bit of a one-day wonder.

 * The unsigned vote was actually my vote, I had forgotten to sign it. Oh well, fixed that now. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:26, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Strong delete – Non-notable fringe topic, intended to push POV in favour of the foreign word "Czechia". RGloucester  — ☎ 14:15, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - for the same reasons that everyone else is giving. What little is here could be added to the Name of the Czech Republic.--Khajidha (talk) 16:24, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
