Secondary Schools' United Nations Symposium

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

Admitted vanity article on one of hundreds of Model UN Conferences held annually in North America. There is no claim to notability. Wikipedia is not to promote your event. Chabuk [ T • C ] 23:05, 13 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment: If not kept, should be a merge and redirect to Model United Nations rather than deletion. If kept, overly detailed information such as names of committee chairs should be truncated. Newyorkbrad 23:28, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. GreenJoe 02:41, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak delete per nom and agree with User:Newyorkbrad. Seems no more notable than the other hundreds of model UNs (which also don't get WP articles).  --Raeven0 04:33, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: The committee information was shortened and information was added regarding the notability of the conference. Perhaps deletion is no longer necessary?
 * weak delete Limited to one province. Possibly that might be useful as a criterion. DGG 22:30, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: It says on the page it is not limited to one province, but attracts students from several countries. Stands out from other conferences by being the largest in Canada and being run by a UN NGO. 14 January 2007 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.203.39.217 (talk • contribs)
 * Keep: Chabuk has personal issues with both the SSUNS and McMUN conferences and has flagged them both for deletion out of spite. I don't think his personal problems should get to dictate Wikipedia content.  The article clearly states that SSUNS is the largest high school MUN conference in Canada and caters to students across multiple continents. --Tillitt 14:32, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I have no issues with SSUNS of McMUN and I take offense to the insinuation that I did this out of spite. I nominated them for deletion in accordance with policy. Please keep in mind WP:NPA. -- Chabuk [ T • C ] 20:02, 15 January 2007 (UTC)


 * On balance, I don't feel notability is clearly enough demonstrated. There are pleny of model UN conferences, so why is this one special ? Size doesn't seem to me to be enough - to a large extent size is just a function of "good marketing" in any given year. Delete. WMMartin 18:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I'd also like to encourage Tillitt not to indulge in personal attacks, and to "assume good faith". WMMartin 18:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
