Delta Chi Lambda

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This was listed as a CSD A7. Perhaps I am being overly too cautious on this one, but there is an objection from the author that they are notable enough for an article. If enough people say to speedy delete (which I suspect will be the case here) then I'll do so. I've added a watch to this AFD discussion and will periodically review.

 * delete is there any way the author can look at a merge of this info into a similar subject/category? from it being a category in itself, not worthy of inclusion.  perhaps Closing admin can look at where this info can merge to? --60.240.117.215 (talk) 12:55, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: When I've run across fraternity/sorority related AfDs in the past, I think that articles on individual chapters of larger organizations are usually deleted.  This appears to be a case, however, where there is only one chapter.  An AFD in 2006, Articles_for_deletion/Alpha_Chi_Alpha, suggests that a single chapter house may be notable enough to have a page on a case by case basis, if its gotten enough coverage.  I suspect this one doesn't have enough coverage for a consensus of editors to deem it notable.  If it was the first Asian-American greek house it would have a good claim, but this book lists a number (the first of which appears to be Rho Psi in 1916).--Milowent (talk) 16:11, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. No demonstration of notability outside of the university campus, so it fails WP:ORG, and no significant coverage in secondary sources. —C.Fred (talk) 17:58, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I appreciate Milowent's point above, but this sorority hasn't been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources, and it simply doesn't appear to meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG.  There also seems to be no appropriate place to merge.   Glenfarclas   ( talk ) 22:49, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * CommentPlease take the courtesy and time to see that these other Greek Organizations have Wikipedia pages, and I could not find any large significant "coverage" differences from Delta Chi Lambda. Just because Delta Chi Lambda does not have several chapters does not mean they are not note worthy. (Delta Gamma Pi, Delta Sigma Iota, Alpha Iota Omicron, Kappa Pi Beta Fraternity, Inc., Delta Chi Psi, etc).72.208.244.230 (talk) 01:06, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, but "Wikipedia has other articles just as non-notable" isn't a reason to keep this one. If anything, it's a reason to nominate the other ones for deletion as not suitable for this encyclopedia.   Glenfarclas   ( talk ) 02:57, 6 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete - I could not locate any non-local coverage. If they form a number of chapters on other campuses, they can come back and re-create the article at that time. Racepacket (talk) 00:07, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment They are currently starting their second chapter at Arizona State University (ASU). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.208.244.230 (talk) 05:15, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
