National Christian Forensics and Communications Association clubs

Fails WP:LISTN; I could not find any reliable sources discussing these clubs. The references are just to the club websites. As the talk page demonstrates, the list is unverifiable since these clubs are ephemeral and there is no way to tell which ones are still active. Cerebellum (talk) 21:34, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. Just a simple directory, none of any entries are notable. Ajf773 (talk) 08:04, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comments I'm afraid I don't understand the deletion rationale, or if I do understand it that rationale doesn't seem to be in alignment with standard practices on Wikipedia. For example, there's no need for every entry on a list to be notable--if they were, then every entry on the list would (or could) have its own article.  Yet we have lots of list articles that don't meet that strict standard.  An argument could be made that many of the sources are not third party (it sure looks that way) so that wouldn't point to notability of each organization, but there's not an article about each organization and it's okay from at least a verifiability standpoint.  As for clubs that might not be active any more, there's no requirement in the list that it be current and in fact has a disclaimer.  If this content were merged to National Christian Forensics and Communications Association then that article would be clumsy and awkward, but an argument could be made that it's worthy of inclusion.  Yet at the same time, I wonder just how big this organization could be and how much the list could grow--possibly to the point of being ridiculous.--Paul McDonald (talk) 12:45, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Paul, I probably expressed the rationale poorly. As far as I can tell, none of the sources are third party.  In my opinion this means that the article fails the portion of LISTN that says: One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources.  --Cerebellum (talk) 15:47, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I do that all the time, thanks for clarifying. Not ready to take a position yet, but admittedly it doesn't look good for the list...--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:44, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm ready. Delete fails WP:LISTN and Wikipedia is not a directory--certainly not for a list of local clubs by state that the organization's website would either maintain themselves or prefer to keep private.--Paul McDonald (talk) 02:20, 17 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete A list of non-notable school clubs is not appropriate for Wikipedia, fails WP:LISTN. Reywas92Talk 19:12, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Per above. Not seeing how it meets Wp:LISTN. Rollidan (talk) 23:04, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. Subject fails WP:LISTN. Once again: Wikipedia does not list random information. -The Gnome (talk) 11:24, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
