Louisiana High School Speech League

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Reads like an advertisement, not an encyclopedia article. Notability, if it exists, is extremely localized. Ecoleetage (talk) 23:53, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per CSD:A7, no assertion of notability. Tagged as such. Stifle (talk) 16:15, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete but not speedy. Though being a statewide organisation of this nature isn't usually notable, its a plausible indication of possible notability -- & even might be, if there were really significant sources (I therefore removed he speedy tag). DGG (talk) 17:58, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems to be a well established subject in Wikipedia.

 * Delete per WP:ORG, and I probably would have speedied this if I'd come across it. But an AfD has more sticking power, I guess. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  15:33, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I actually found this lying about in WP:Backlog - it dates from December 2006! Ecoleetage (talk) 18:33, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - promotional in nature and relying on exactly one source, the organizational web site. The LHSSL may have the references in the Internet to establish WP:ORG, but this article won't be the vehicle for it. This is too spammy to keep. B.Wind (talk) 02:50, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not free webspace.  Mr Stephen (talk) 13:03, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
