West Bend Crime Prevention Patrol
This entry fails to meet noteablity guidelines any tags to fix or upgrade article are removed by the groups members. TheRanger 16:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete as a failure to meet the criteria of WP:ORG. TheRanger 17:00, 2 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I believe I was able to remove the parts you beleived sounded like a recruiting ad (namely, the FAQ). I added a references section and wikified the content. I hope this is closer to your reqeusts so we do not get deleted.


 * I have made updates and added notability. This article clearly has as much relevance and notability as the S.S. Badger article.  Will someone please answer my concerns as to why this is any different from other articles?

 * The best place that I can refer you to for your answer is found at this link WP:ORG. It basicly needs to be noteable to a encylopedia entry and not just of local interest.  It looks as if you have a fine local group however, as your example with the S.S. Badger that is of interest to both the local cities it stops as well as the traveling public as a whole.  I have used google and found no newspaper or major media coverage at all for your group, the only sites were your group site and the city of West Bend site and very little on that one.

 * Strong delete as a local organization without distinct non-local notability. Routine duties such as a Presidential motorcade don't qualify. --Dhartung | Talk 01:12, 9 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. Either non-local impact or press coverage that deals specifically with the organization seems to be required for notability under WP:ORG. Neither is documented in the article. EdJohnston 02:37, 9 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete as per nomination and above, no non-local notability. Seraphimblade 06:47, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - not-notable - the essentials can be added to the locality article. BlueValour 22:27, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
