Cooper Point Journal
Contested prod; student paper, no evidence of real notability, delete --Peta 03:02, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Student newspapers are generally notable. As well, this one has several notable alumni. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 03:48, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. My Google search gives only 837 results including Wiki mirrors, several E-Bay items, multiple resumes, and posts from web forums and listservs. I can't find anything that suggets notability outside of the college community. Consequentially 04:43, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to The Evergreen State College. Since when are student newspapers notable?  They are just another student organization, and student organizations are generally not notable, unless they are the Hasty Pudding Club. --Brianyoumans 05:35, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge as per Brianyoumans unless broader/deeper cultural impact beyond college community can be shown Bwithh 14:54, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - whilst I disagree that student newspapers are generally notable, previous contributors to this one give it sufficient notability. However, a source needs to be found to verify this. Asp 15:26, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, given Matt Groening's associations with the paper . If not, definitely merge with Evergreen State College. Zagalejo 20:22, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Super Ultra Keep go geoducks! CPJ functions as alternative/secondary media for Olympia. SchmuckyTheCat 06:48, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per Brianyoumans. Being associated with notable folks is likely worth mentioning in the section, but that still doesn't justify a separate article. Can you imagine if we added articles for every student organization at every college or university that once claimed a famous person as a member? GassyGuy 07:11, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge. No need for a seperate encyclopedia article. Akradecki 22:49, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge. Does not assert notabality.  Vegaswikian 20:57, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge doesn't seem like enough material to justify a separate article. OhNo itsJamie Talk 06:01, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
