Independent Order of Vikings

This is eligible under A7, but the reviewing admin was reluctant to delete, because this article has been around for many years. I've taken it here to generate more discussion. There's no claim of notability in the article, and nothing to suggest it passes WP:ORG. A google search came up with no sources. Finger z  11:13, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment for the record, this explains my rationale for not speedy-deleing the article. —  Tivedshambo   (t/c) 15:09, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep seems like one of the few web cites for an organization people might want to know more about (when seeing their buildingds, when buying insurance). No obvious reason to delete. Paul, in Saudi (talk) 16:36, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
