The San Francisco Naturalist Society

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Non-notable group and I haven't found any reliable and third-party sources, the only relevant links I have found are events. Additionally, Google News and Google Books provided zero useful results. Moving the content to San Francisco State University would be inappropriate as there is no evidence that the university has connections with the group but rather that a group of students established it while attending. I should also mention that the author removed the notability tag I added five times with no explanation and despite multiple warnings, this user has also edited with another account, Amanda189, focusing entirely with the society.

 * Speedy delete under CSD A7. No assertion or indication of notability. My own efforts to dig up third party coverage have been fruitless. - Vianello (Talk) 20:02, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. This society exists, it holds meetings and nature walks and things, I'm sure it does other good things. But it has not gotten any significant coverage (as opposed to coming-events type coverage) that I could find. Undoubtedly a WP:NOBLECAUSE but does not meet Wikipedia criteria for inclusion in an international encyclopedia. --MelanieN (talk) 20:06, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Note: The article has already been deleted twice under the name San Francisco Naturalist Society, so maybe a little salt is in order - under both names. --MelanieN (talk) 20:09, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete, several passing mentions of the subject in reliable sources, but no significant coverage required by WP:GNG, fails WP:ORG.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 01:34, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
