Constanta School Students Association

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Entirely unsourced article on a small, local organization of high-schoolers. There's some routine press coverage, but really nothing suggesting encyclopedic notability. - Biruitorul Talk 03:29, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment. One does not generally expect local students' organisations to be notable, and the almost unsourced nature of the current article and poor results from searches on the article title do not change this expectation. However, searches on the organisation's name in Romanian seem to produce substantial news stories from Adevărul, Evenimentul Zilei , România Liberă  and Gândul . I would not expect London newspapers routinely even to be mentioning a school students' organisation in, say, Merseyside, so unless (as is admittedly possible with my almost total lack of knowledge of Romanian) I have made a mistake and these are all stories from local editions of these newspapers rather than national ones or I have mistaken passing mentions as something rather more, I am slightly surprised that the nominator press coverage as being routine.

 * I appreciate the comment, and will try to address your observations. The Adevărul article is indeed from a local edition of the national newspaper, but I think what is more significant is the fact that three of the four articles deal with the fact that the Association has sued the Education Ministry (for various reasons that revolve around the sub-standard education the students claim they are receiving, probably with some justification). Now, such a lawsuit is indeed unusual, but it does seem as though most of the national coverage deals with this topic. And if this is the primary reason they've received coverage, it's difficult to see how a coherent article could be written out of that. Should the lawsuit succeed and have an impact, perhaps Romanian educational system would be a better place to deal with it. - Biruitorul Talk 14:41, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
