The result was delete. The one person arguing to keep didn't give any policy-based reasons to support their argument. If somebody wants to work on this, ping me on my talk page and I'll get it moved to draft space. -- RoySmith (talk) 04:55, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Maybe so but what's needed here is better coverage from sources such as news, magazines and journals. If wished, this can be drafted and userfied so you can work with it until actually notable and acceptable. SwisterTwister   talk  07:11, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment: I just don't know what to think about this; we have this article, and another on Haryana Chess Association (now very understandably prodded by ). Both appear to use the same logo, neither at the moment appears to be notable. But it may be that most of the coverage is in a language that I can't read. Pinging for comment on that.
