Tennessee Eastman Hiking and Canoeing Club
The result was withdrawn by nominator, per concensus. However, I plan within the coming days to review each of these articles and nominate at least some of them for deletion. If you have any interest in saving an article listed here, keep it on your watchlist. Hellno2 (talk) 01:09, 13 June 2008 (UTC) (non-admin close)

Non-notable organization. Does not contain references to meet WP:Notability requirements, only external links to its own site or those advertising the club. I also added the following articles to the nomination for the following similar reasons:
 * These clubs pertaining to outdoor activities generally do not meet Wikipedia notability guidelines
 * Though there may be external links, they usually are to the club's own site or to other sites that are not worthy of establishing notability
 * These clubs are generally localized to one region
 * Though these clubs may have been around for at least several decades, sometimes over a century, age of an organization, especially without verification from an outside reliable source, does not mean automatic notability.

 * Comment. Hate to be a party-pooper but I would have hoped for separate nominations. Although most of them fail WP:ORG, some of then are "mergable" and some aren't.

 * Comment. I too strongly suggest that these be brought here separately. They cover some very different things. Some are possibly not notable, but some might well be, like the British Canoe Union, which covers the country and is not local. They also are in different countries. A combined proposal like this is unlikely to allow editors who are involved to know about the proposal. --Bduke (talk) 05:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Close and relist separately. There's no way that the notability of these subjects is linked, so they should be listed separately. Also I would urge you do do a Google Books search before listing the Royal Canoe Club - I don't think that many people would agree that a subject with over 300 book sources including the Encyclopaedia Britannica and Chambers's Encyclopaedia doesn't have notability.

 * Close as a trainwreck. These need to be nominated individually on their own merits. -- Whpq (talk) 14:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
