Local student organization. No WP:Reliable Sources. No assertion of WP:Notability. RedShiftPA (talk) 17:09, 16 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Note: This debate has been added to the list of university deletions. &mdash;RedShiftPA (talk) 17:23, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - Inherently notable. Wikipedia has no deadline. GreenJoe 18:04, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Please cite the guideline which states that it is inherently notable simply for existing. --Dhartung | Talk 21:09, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep: Not inherently notable, but a few reliable sources do exist.— Noetic  Sage  18:18, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - only trivial coverage.--Michael WhiteT&middot;C 21:06, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, WP:ORG wants the activities of the org to be national in scope. The sources provided are clearly local, and trivial to boot. Paddy Simcox (talk) 23:34, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete I'd prefer to merge it, but there's no parent organization to merge to. Lovelac 7 03:21, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep: the news results presented above are good enough to satisfy WP:N. Oren0 (talk) 18:42, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep The "local" applies to local branches of an organisation, which are almost always non-notable. This particular article is about a statewide agency, transcending any particular college, and is a suitable place to put paragraphs about the parts in the indiviual colleges, instead of trying to write articles about each of them. A good compromise. DGG (talk) 01:35, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Needs to beef up source list. Otherwise it's a marginally notable subject.   - Jameson L. Tai   talk  ♦  contribs  17:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - lack of media coverage. PhilKnight (talk) 23:54, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:ORG due to total lack of independent sources. The article includes no assertion of notability and none has been produced despite a long AFD. BlueValour (talk) 04:39, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
