Democratic National Conference
Hi - I consider this non-notable, and it has remained unsourced and unedited for 2 months. Rama&#39;s Arrow 18:22, 15 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. Rama&#39;s Arrow 18:23, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep (I think). I think this was a genuine historical party.  And given that it is India may have had millions of members and still have been minor there.  I think that this article should be sourced and expanded.   Bucketsofg 19:31, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - This is obviously an article about a real party. It was created by Soman, who is the creator of the majority of the articles about left wing parties and organizations. The article just needs references and, of course, improvement. If you delete this one you'll have a reason to delete the remaining hundreds of leftwing parties stubs like this.

 * Delete You convinced me—getting rid of some stubs that nobody ever bothers to flesh out, and which would probably be nonnotable if they did, sounds good. Gene Nygaard 01:06, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * We should encourage a stubbed article rather than red links. Notability is the criteria, not "stubbiness". =Nichalp   «Talk»=  17:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I didn't realized that deleting all the stubs was the policy in wikipedia. Afonso Silva 13:51, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep. Rama is show a rather ignorant approach to Kashmiri political history. The progressive elements of National Conference played an important role in the time just after independence, especially in drafting its state constitution. The fact that this party was led by Sadiq, who later became Chief Minister is also notable. Thirdly, this group is the alma mater of all communist movements in Kashmir, the root of the presence of Naxalites in the state, and later the current CPI(M) branch (which is represented in the legislative assembly). --Soman 14:38, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep -- political parties are notable. =Nichalp   «Talk»=  17:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Unsourced and unedited is not enough grounds for deletion in this case, sorry. --Gurubrahma 10:17, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand - Ganeshk  ( talk ) 07:10, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
