Federation of Anarchists of Western Greece

 * — (View AfD)

A Greek anarchist local organisation, which is unknown to most people, does not deserve its own encyclopedia article. The article violates WP:N. Mitsos 22:52, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Neutral The nomination rationale is pretty weak. Still, references seem to fall short of what we would need to build a decent article but then again, I can't read Greek and I suppose that's the language in which we should expect some. Pascal.Tesson 00:27, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable. Nominator, please cite policy and guidelines, not personal opinion. "Unknown to most people" == "fails notability guidelines". "Does not deserve article" == opinion you should keep to yourself. --Dhartung | Talk 02:04, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. Weak nomination argument. Merge and redirect to Anarchism in Greece might also be appropriate. - N1h1l
 * Agree the nomination argument is weak: being unknown to most people is not the same thing as being non-notable. Is there an equivalent to this article in the Greek Wikipedia ? I can't find one, but I don't know modern Greek ( and am pretty awful in classical Greek ). Local political organisations are sometimes notable, and sometimes just bunches of people with aspirations but no notability: I can't tell which of the two sets these people belong to. I'm not an expert on Greek politics, so would welcome input from Greek wikipedians. For now I'm Neutral. WMMartin 17:52, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * No, there is no such article in the Greek Wikipedia. Mitsos 13:16, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. notable entity Francis Tyers · 20:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * No, it's not notable! Noone in Greece knows that group. Mitsos 07:38, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete —  Very weak nomination. Still, 100 Yhits and 41 Ghits says something, although part of me wants to remain neutral, policy says that it fails WP:LOCAL and WP:N. Wizardman  17:29, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - very weak nomination, however lacks reliable secondary sources. Addhoc 20:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Per WP:V. I briefly scanned the Greek text from the website, but did not see any interesting links. There were some PDF files of paper publications of the anarchist group, but I did not come across any outside comments on the group's activities. A search for "Ομοσπονδία Αναρχικών Δυτικής Ελλάδος" on google.gr gets 50 hits, but none to any reliable sources like newspaper web sites. EdJohnston 02:50, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
