The Storm

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

non-notable organization, fails WP:V, the orgs website link leads to a domain parking site, kept in a previous AfD, but I'm not sure why... Tunnels of Set 13:59, 13 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete Sorry, but previous Afd closure wasn't right. People cited some odd sources to support a keep and apparently this was enough to produce a no consensus result. Sources produced to verify the article were 1) An article by an author whose article has been subject to an deletion-protection action hosted on now-defunct "Catholic Revolution" website which also reprinted a Nazi-era German article on the history of "Jewish Ritual Murder" as well as an older article about "The Jewish Conspiracy to Enslave non-Jews"; 2) A link to a personal website with summary/reviews of a book by the purported founders of this purported organization - the summary/reviews do not even clearly assert that the specific organization named The Storm existed/exists. 3) an essay on the Storm organization's website itself, which a keep !voter remarked "had enough details to convince me it's not a joke." Great that he thought that, but that doesn't make this an reliable, independent, verifiable source. I'm going to do a research run for better evidence, but this isn't looking good.

 * Okay, so the Catholic Revolution hosted article by William H. Kennedy which was so persuasive in the first afd would seem to be a summary of a self-published book by Kennedy. He is a self-publishing Satanic Conspiracy Theorist who isn't afraid to ask the urgent questions that must be answered like (I quote) "Is George W. Bush the grandson of Aleister Crowley? and urges: "A member of the Bush Family and a descendant of Aleister Crowley should take a DNA test to set the record straight!" (his evidence is a ridiculous-scandal-mongering blog entry by some other random satanic conspiracy guy who concludes "I leave the matter for the reader to decide.")

 * I think the Zeena Schreck article could do with some checking out too, as its mainly sourced from the Storm website, and a book she wrote herself Bwithh 14:49, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Zero hits for "Zeena Schreck" + "storm" on Factiva, Google Books Bwithh 15:16, 13 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete This still fails WP:V. I would like to see this addressed, as last time most of the keep opinions argued on notability grounds and just sorta sidestepped this issue. GassyGuy 05:39, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete It isn't notable. Zeena is notable maybe, but her organization barely makes a blip on any radars. I had never heard of it until I came to Wikipedia really. I've never heard of it anywhere. It's websites seems to be a ghost really, there but not really active. I don't see any updates. Keep mention of the Storm (and a link) on Zeena's page of course, but keep the actual Storm article?
