North Carolina Junior Classical League

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable state chapter of the NJCL. There are no external references and it does not pass WP:CLUB. Coverage is only local in scope and the limited sourced encyclopedic information is better presented in a sub-list of the main article, per WP:CLUB.

 * Keep Statewide academic organizations are little different than statewide athletic organizations, and the junior classical convention and competition received significant coverage. The article has been well developed and if more sources are needed, they can easily be located .  Mandsford 15:59, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
 * WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. The athletic organizations are full groups in their own right, not chapters of a national organization. Occational minor local news mentions are not notability, nor do they exclude the possibility of a merged list.  Reywas92  Talk 18:17, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Out of scope, as we currently define WP.See my comment at WP:Articles for deletion/Illinois Junior Classical League. The state articles for the athletic organizations cover a much wider scope, and are a reasonable exception.   DGG ( talk ) 03:57, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep See my comments here for my rationale. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 19:19, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete The national organization is notable and is well represented by the article National Junior Classical League. All the articles about local chapters should be deleted. This is not just my opinion; this is policy. Quoting from WP:GROUP, "Aim for one good article, not multiple permanent stubs: Individual chapters, divisions, departments, and other sub-units of notable organizations are only rarely notable enough to warrant a separate article. Information on chapters and affiliates should normally be merged into the article about the parent organization." While we should at it we should delete the article National Junior Clasical League state chapters and the two categories, Category:National Junior Classical League and Category:National Junior Classical League State Chapters. --MelanieN (talk) 03:30, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
