International American Bar Associations
This "article" is a collection of a whopping two external links. Brittanica, assume the position! Appropriate Username 04:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * keep Keep it, but try to order the text. I think is useful. Sandonar
 * Wikipedia is not Google. The article subject matter is non encyclopedic. Appropriate Username 04:51, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Strong keep Hi, I am the author, and a lawstudent. I am improving it now. Many large articles start out as small insignifgant ones like this one. Deleting an entry simply because it is small is rather shortsided. Why not get on Google and add more International American Bar Associations instead of spending your time arguing about deleting other people's work. Travb 04:55, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge into Bar association and delete - if that article becomes overloaded with international american bar associations, *then* it would be appropriate for this article to fork off from it. -- Hyperbole 04:58, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * A strong argument for keeping the page would be putting some actual text there. As it stands now it's just Two links that I think should be on Wikipedia Appropriate Username 05:01, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I like Hyperbole argument thanks for the idea! And  I will merge it now. Appropriate Username, go harrass someone else you miserable pest. In the Soviet Union they had old women who would yell at pedestrians for walking on the grass.  You remind me of those old women--annoying and worthless.  Actually, you are worse, because the old babuskas didn't actively attempt to destroy anything.Travb 05:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * The above comment is totally and shockingly out of line; it shows a complete inability to grasp what WP is about and how it works, which in turns raises serious questions about the author's ability to participate. In no way does any comment made here by AU warrant this type of response.  Delete this, redirect, and have editor go read WP:AGF, WP:Civility and WP:NPA.  WRT Hyperbole's suggestion, the old delete and merge doesn't actually exist, right? Eusebeus 11:43, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete and I added back the AfD tag that Travb inappropriately removed.  Original page was an external linkfarm.  Redirect to Bar association isn't necessary in my opinion because the term International American Bar Associations is a neologism and I can find no evidence that any of the groups linked (or any other ABA sub-groups) ever used the term "International American Bar Associations" to refer to themselves either individually or collectively.    I also want to mirror what Eusebeus said: Travb seriously needs to sit down and read WP:AGF, WP:Civility and WP:NPA.--Isotope23 16:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, and  and don't bother redirecting, it's an unlikely search term. -- Rory 0 96 (block)  18:50, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
