Occupy Texas State

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Procedural AfD nomination; this is a prod being converted to an AfD discussion. Original nominator's concern was "Non-noteworthy local protest group." However, the citation of multiple potentially reliable sources by the article lead me to bounce it over here for a more in-depth examination/discussion. — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 23:12, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. User beat me over here.  Not every Occupy group is noteworthy, and I've found no reliable sources about this specific group in which to build an article on.  Would possibly support a merge to a broader "Occupy Colleges" article, but I haven't looked into what our college occupy articles look like currently.

 * Delete Not significant enough for a stand-alone article p  b  p  23:44, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect with possible merge to Occupy movement in the United States and/or List of Occupy movement protest locations in the United States (where it's already mentioned); the only college Occupy movements we have articles on are the really significant ones: Occupy Harvard, Occupy Cal, Occupy the Farm (Stanford University), and Occupy UC Davis (which redirects to the notable incident that happened there).

 * Keep - Discussed by several reliable sources and the exclusive focus of at least two: 1 2. Could use copyedit & updating. Note that editors working on List of Occupy movement protest locations in the United States already reached a consensus on this issue. Aloha, groupuscule (talk) 01:48, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep, weakly - The availability of online sources indicates that this (very) weakly meets WP:GNG, per, , . Perhaps other offline sources are available? Northamerica1000(talk) 01:49, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
 * The first is as far as I can tell local; the second doesn't mention "Occupy Texas State" at all; the third, I can't tell if it's reliable or not. Ansh666 02:08, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Ugh, I copy and pasted the wrong link above in my !vote. Struck accordingly, and added "(very)" above. I'll try to find the correct link. Thanks for the notification. Northamerica1000(talk) 02:30, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
 * (Of course, that doesn't disqualify 1/3, just other opinions are needed.) Ansh666 02:36, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
