List of United States Student Governments

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A long list comprised almost entirely of external links to student governments at American universities and colleges. Might be more useful if the lists were internal, but most of these organizations are not notable enough to have their own articles. Pure listcruft. Realkyhick 06:12, 20 August 2007 (UTC)


 * As the creator of this article, please note that I only created this in order to spin off a list that was inappropriately dominating the Student's Union article. I have no particular objection to its deletion. Hornplease 06:14, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * You know, if it's entirely external links, it qualifies as a CSD A3. Could be speedied. Hornplease 06:18, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not entirely external links. One or two are internal. The speedy crossed my mind. Realkyhick 06:42, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * THere is one internal link. That being considered, it's still a list composed entirely of external links. One internal link is not a list. Two, maybe, but not one. Calgary 08:16, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, let's just let this AfD play out to its conclusion, just to be on the safe side. Realkyhick 17:33, 20 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. It is just a collection of external links.  Useight 06:21, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Per the creator's remarks. Jmlk  1  7  06:25, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete -- Wikipedia is not a linkfarm, and it appears that this article was only created to remove material from a page without being forced to argue over it. --Haemo 06:27, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Meh. I could have argued, but who would have disagreed, really? Long lists are deprecated within articles anyway. Hornplease 07:28, 20 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - A mere list of external links. Falls in to WP:NOT. --H| H irohisat  Talk 07:37, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and Trim down to only internal cross-references for notable organizations. The list is a bit more than simply a collection of external links as there is additional information on a substantial proportion of line items, which could be expanded.  In general a list that adds value by providing additional line item information is considered more than a mere list of links. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 11:52, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * comment A speedy was placed on it, which I declined to speedy & removed. No comment on the article, but the discussion should continue. Its usually not a good idea to short-circuit an afd.DGG (talk) 17:11, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOT. A category would seem more useful here, but since most of the links are external, it's probably not justified. -- B figura (talk) 21:26, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP is not a directory of student governments Corpx 01:52, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
