Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Underhill Society of America

Discussion moved from AFD

 * Can someone explain to me how a Society which has produced numerous scholarly presentations, placed an impressive monument on the site of an ancestor, and remained in existence for over 100 years is not notable. How then are organizations like the Saint Nicholas Society in the City of New York the Daughters of the American Revolution notable, whereas this particular lineage society is not? The longer this goes on the greater feeling I have this particular organization is being singled out. Placepromo (talk) 22:12, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Sure, read the general notability guideline. Notability is based on the amount of in-depth independent third-party material available to use a sources. It is not based on presentations, monuments, or length of existence. Meeting announcements in the New York Times are not in-depth coverage, they are meeting announcements. Everything else seems to be sourced to primary sources, which do not establish notability. It's being singled out based on your creation of lengthy articles on several clearly non-notable Underhills, Your user name, containing the word "promo" doesn't help either. It gives the impression that you might be a professional promoter paid to promote this organization on Wikipedia, which would violate our conflict of interest policy.

 * This has been incredibly frustrating, and, not to mention, an enormous waste of time. Feel free to do whatever you want. I will pursue my interests elsewhere. This will be my last Wikipedia post, at least for a long, long while. Placepromo (talk) 22:59, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
