Welsh Republican Army

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Joke / hoax organisation or simply one so small that no one has noticed it. E-mails and phone calls to one newspaper do not rhylly establish notability. &mdash; RHaworth 17:21, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect (no merge) to Free Wales Army. There appear to be some references to the Welsh Republican Army in the 1960s as either an alternate name for, or a misunderstood name for, the Free Wales Army. e.g. . Pburka (talk) 18:06, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete, there is no established link to Free Wales Army other than an unsupported claim. The 1960's references do not refer to the claims of this article. -- Snowded  TALK  18:22, 12 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete on the grounds of lack of notability and unverifiability of the claims made on the rather bizarre and amateur web page. Although the Daily Post article says that 'The threats have been taken seriously and North and South Wales Police Special Branch officers are investigating', that's "their" sole claim to fame (I seem to recall a mention on Wales Today at the time as well) and since then (2007) there has not been anything about the supposed group in the media, as far as I know. The web page also claims responsibility for daubing a couple of signs in Cilmeri and nicking a couple of Union Jacks from Cardiff Castle four years ago, and that's it. Some "paramilitary group"! Though the 'group' itself could well be a hoax, to be fair to the contributor the article itself is not, let's assume it was created in good faith based on what he/she found on the web.
