North Carolina School for the Deaf Bears

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

no WP:GNG assertion of notability; there's also the problem that it's an alumni organisation for a school we don't have an article for. Ironholds (talk) 14:02, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 14:17, 18 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Merge to North Carolina School for the Deaf, which is also about the school in Morganton, NC.  I agree that the alumni organization itself isn't notable, although NCSD certainly would be.  No redirect-- the title implies that this is about "deaf bears", and it's an unlikely search term.  Mandsford (talk) 17:16, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Article starts out "The purpose of this booklet..." and is obviously copied from somewhere. Therefore it should be deleted as copyvio. It should also be deleted as unencyclopedic garbage text (db-nocontext). There are no bears or a team named "bears" referenced in the article. It could even be deleted as a db-test edit.

 * Delete. This entry makes very little sense, the first half is about "this booklet" and how and why it was written. Huh? Very little mergeable content. Hairhorn (talk) 04:32, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete G12, WP:COPYVIO-- Plagiarism sucks. Mandsford (talk) 11:54, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-notable group, presented in an incoherent article. Warrah (talk) 17:42, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete per WP:COPYVIO. Appears like a copy-paste job. Dew Kane (talk) 03:56, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * merge which I should have done bvefore it got here, but I hoped  the author would havedoine it a suggested.    DGG ( talk ) 05:11, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Merging would leave a bizarre redirect. Should every high school in the world not only have an article but also have a redirect of the form Foo High School Mascotname? No. This article should not have been deprodded by you, you should have speedied it. Abductive  (reasoning) 07:39, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
