Jewish American Society for Historic Preservation

Non-notable organization. References are mostly WP:PRIMARY and only list their programs, not why it is notable. Cyan  Gardevoir  (used EDIT!) 02:20, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep. Notable national United States organization that has many projects in several states across the U.S. (viewed by 5 million people every year). News articles on historic markers and other projects that they've sponsored can be found in local newspapers, such as Leavenworth, Kansas and Buffalo, NY . Their work has been covered in major periodicals, such as The Jerusalem Post, Israel Today magazine , Jewish Post and News , The Jewish Daily Forward . They have international projects in Buchenwald, Germany and London, England. They provide resources for academic researchers, for example in these books (page 48) , (page 6) . It's a significant and notable organization. The article needs to cite more secondary sources to make that clearer, but it's definitely notable enough for an encyclopedia entry.OttawaAC (talk) 03:13, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. I followed OttawaAC's links, and did a Google search of my own for ("jewish american society for historic preservation").  I found a great deal of coverage of projects with which the organization had been involved, but no real in-depth independent coverage of the group itself.  Asserting notability for the group based on the coverage of the various projects strikes me as too much like WP:INHERITED.  Rather against my expectations, I'm forced to conclude that the group appears to fail WP:GNG.  Ammodramus (talk) 03:10, 25 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep Meets WP: GNG as there are reliable sources from Jewish newspapers. Yes, this article could use cleanup as there are about a dozen maintnance tags on it, but all in all, it meets WP: GNG. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 14:12, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
