South Florida Smash HLS

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The subject fails WP:NGO, which is the applicable notability guideline for non-profit organizations. NGO requires reliable independent sources outside the organization's local area. All available sourcing comes from South Florida. I've looked myself for national sources, and did not find any: I've gone through the first ten pages of Google results, and found nothing. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:45, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. None of the sources available indicate notability for such an organization. As mentioned by the nom, coverage outside the local area would be needed to address this and begin developing content. Kingofaces43 (talk) 01:16, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
 * delete per the history i removed fraudulent and promotional content from the article. All the refs are local papers, so  WP:AUD is relevant here.  The refs from the local paper do provide in-depth coverage but there are no sources with broader geographic coverage, so this fails WP:AUD.  So...  notability is marginal at best and the obvious effort to use WP to promote the group pushes my !vote solidly to delete.  Jytdog (talk) 02:09, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
