Jun 12 -- https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=New_England_Independence_Campaign&action=history Edits added still resemble an advertisement... and to add the fact 90% of the sources are from the NEIC itself, one of which is a twitter with 9 followers. --Gabbobler (talk) 01:23, 11 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - article content is 90% quoted from the organization's website, the results of a Google search are the social media pages of this organization and a list of minor secessionist movements in the US, and the website itself is full of grammatical errors and is hosted on a free Weebly site. Not notable. Cran32 (talk) 07:47, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - Discussion was created without the afd2 template and never transcluded to a daily log. Fixed now.  As for my own view, organization clearly has not received any coverage from outside sources and is possibly speediable per WP:CSD.   If you wish to nominate other articles for deletion in the future, please fully follow the instructions at WP:AFDHOWTO.  Thank you.  --Finngall talk  16:17, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Regardless of the fact that it comes off as advertising (which could theoretically be addressed if someone cared to), the bigger issue, and the reason I support deletion of the page, is the lack of notability. It clearly fails the general notability guidelines - the article even lists the "independent outlet" which reports on it to be one of the organization's own twitter accounts! Anecdotally, I've never heard of it and I live in New England - while this is obviously not a reason to delete an article, it is an example of the fact that there isn't even coverage or knowledge of the organization at the local level!

 * Delete the sourcing is poor because there is no other, all I can find are the usual WP:MILL-type passing mentions and their own publicity. ——  § erial  10:30, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
