Kadist

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested PROD. Appears to fail WP:GNG, as the only sources provided in the article are on the organization's Facebook page and on their website. The only third-party sources I could find are only brief mentions, blog entries, or directory-type listings; no "significant" coverage. Fails WP:V/WP:RS.

 * Delete - Largely passing and promotional mentions, no evidence of notability anywhere, fails WP:GNG. hmssolent \You rang? ship's log 14:08, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - After taking a look at the SF Chronicle online archive searching for "Kadist," I'm not seeing anything which counts to GNG. Note that in the event this is kept it needs a title change to Kadist Art Foundation. About 30,000 Google hits for that, which indicates sourcing might be out there. For now, in my opinion this is a GNG Fail. Carrite (talk) 15:59, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment There are quite a number of Artforum reviews of exhibitions at the Kadist Art Foundation (from 2009-10:, , , all via Highbeam, subscription reqd) but as so often, the problem is that articles about the exhibiting organisation are much harder to find.

 * Comment Agree Kadist Art Foundation is more proper title, will edit this in. Have extended the article to include some more sources/information. Preceding comment by User:Harbourwiki
 * Comment Migrated to Kadist Art Foundation. Preceding comment by User:Harbourwiki
 * I've previously been told that it makes life more difficult for the closing admin if an article is retitled while still at AfD; that said, it is done and the revised title is clearly the better one. AllyD (talk) 19:17, 3 May 2013 (UTC) Actually, I see that what had happened was to re-create the article under the other name. That loses the edit history which is wrong, and also the AfD notice. I have reverted the move and will flag the Kadist Art Foundation copy article for deletion as a duplicate for the time being. If the consensus is to keep this article, then it can be moved to the new title, preserving its edit history. AllyD (talk) 19:21, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep (weak). Found a few things about Kadist: Papermag [here], [Expo Chicago], [artpractical]. Papermag is New York based and has a circulation of 155000 according to [Forbes], so that's certainly not local media. Can't judge the other sources, but there is a GNG trace.Truth or consequences-2 (talk) 16:29, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. By the way, I would support renaming to Kadist Art Foundation, properly done.Truth or consequences-2 (talk) 17:44, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
