 * Delete per the lack of reliable sources about this topic. The results on Google News Archive are all passing mentions. I did find this passing mention in Google Books, but a listing in a directory is not enough to establish notability per WP:ORG. Cunard (talk) 05:42, 15 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete the article. Posted by renegade individual who falsely claims affiliation with the Maryland Republican Party to run a statewide teenage Republican organization and operates an unauthorized website, www.mdtars.org, making such claims.  Conduct a Whois search on mdtars.org and note that the website is registered to a private company (wholly owned by one Daniel Zubairi) and uses Zubairi's private mailing address, not that of MDGOP. Many other claims in this article are patently false.  For example, in an attempt to give an aura of legitimacy to an unauthorized organization, the article's author falsely claims that the organization was chartered by National TARS.  In fact, National TARS does not charter or approve any state organizations or federations, but merely provides resources (in the form of guides, etc.) to persons wishing to start teenage Republican organizations.  Contact Barby Wells, National TARS Director, to verify. The article incorrectly states that Daniel Zubairi was an "elected McCain Delegate" in 2008, but in fact, Zubairi was NOT a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 2008, but only an alternate who never actually got seated as a delegate.  There is a substantial difference. See http://www.elections.state.md.us/elections/2008/documents/winners_list_2008.pdf. --GOPJohnny (talk) 11:33, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
