Manitoba Pioneer Camp

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable summer camp. No independent references provided, only a link to Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship of Canada, which is itself of dubious notability. Was deleted per WP:PROD in April 2014 and was recently undeleted at WP:REFUND per a request from an IP. -- Finngall  talk  15:10, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep actually appears in quite a few books with a paragraph or two. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:53, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Apparently important in the history of Canadian canoeing programs. The article is actually cited to a university press book with non-trivial coverage already and there are other references available (and I'm sure if we dig there are plenty of periodical references. Not "just a summer camp"... nom appears to me part of a trend of nominating "thing in category x" just because it's assumed that thing in category x would be inherently unnotable without looking to see if thing is notable or not. --Samuel J.

 * Keep -- if Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship of Canada is anything like Universities and Colleges Christian Fellowship (formerly Inter-Varsity Fellowship) in UK - its UK equivalent, it is certainly notable. Accordingly the nom's logic is defective.  If there is a problem with artcile under discussion, the solution should be to merge a summary to the IVCF of Canada article, not to delete the article.
