Patrick Henry League

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable organization that was a total and utter flop. At most, this might deserve a sentence in the Heinlein article, but that's it. Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  01:54, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - I would agree that a brief mention is warranted in Robert A. Heinlein and suggest merging a summary, but that content is already present within the article. This article does not achieve notability as a subject to stand alone. IMO My76Strat  talk  02:06, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep An organization does not need to be a smashing success to be notable. Clearly, this particular group got more attention than many because it was founded by Robert A. Heinlein.  However, notability derives from coverage in reliable sources.  Google News Archives and Google Books show that the Patrick Henry League has received enough coverage over many years, in my opinion, to be considered notable.

 * reply - none of that is actually coverage of the League, because the League never got off the ground - it was a total fizzle; that's all Heinlein coverage, and belongs (if anywhere) in the article on RAH. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  13:49, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. & My76Strat, or merge & redirect to Robert A. Heinlein. Clearly not notable enough to warrant a stand-alone article.--JayJasper (talk) 18:58, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge & Redirect to Robert A. Heinlein. The referenced content can be kept, but the other stuff should be deleted based on WP:BURDEN, and that which remains should be merged. --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 21:45, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
