International High IQ Society
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

The article does not meet the Wikipedia guidelines for notability of organizations. No reliable sources have been found for the article, even after a previous PROD and previous AfD. After further diligent search and discussion on the article talk page, it appears that no reliable sources can be found about the organization or its activities. Therefore the article is nominated for deletion discussion for lack of notability and lack of reliable sources. WeijiBaikeBianji (talk) 15:46, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:ORG, and the fact that this STILL doesn't pass our guidelines even after 3 years sitting around since the last AFD is a pretty strong indication that this just isn't an acceptable article subject. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:07, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Found some passing references to it, and its founder has written some books, but substantial and independent coverage of this group is scarce, so it appears to fail WP:ORG. The phrase turns up in many cases just as a description of Mensa. Maybe someone with a very high IQ could find refs that are not about Mensa, not passing references, not just books by the founder, and not press releases by the organization.
