Georgetown University Student Association

Georgetown University Student Association (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Local student government organization. No WP:Reliable Sources beyond university paper. No assertion of WP:Notability. Merge to main page contested. RedShiftPA (talk) 17:09, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete - no non-trivial coverage in independent sources.--Michael White 21:22, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - student bodies have to meet WP:ORG. This requires significant secondary sources. This page hasn't them and thus clearly fails notability standards. TerriersFan (talk) 22:41, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge, this one has some claim to fame, since now notable politicians were involved with it. I would change my not-vote to keep if one source were provided that said the Association was responsible for their later success (rather than the University). Paddy Simcox (talk) 23:50, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep as per Noetic Sage
  • Delete - trivial media coverage. PhilKnight (talk) 23:56, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Sorry I couldn't contribute to this discussion earlier, was on vacation in real life. First off, this should never have been a deletion discussion and this page should not exist. This is a merger discussion, and should have been kept to the talk page. This should be a speedy keep on that basis. Second, I fiercely oppose a merger to Georgetown University, which I spent over a year making a featured article, and would hate to see trashed by an section that clearly deserves its own article. From WP:DEL#REASON, I note that "all attempts" have not failed, and I did find and cite portions of the article with my own, and also User:Noeticsage's secondaries. Additionally, university papers have been found to be acceptable external sources by director Raul654, as I dealt with the issue in Georgetown's FAC. Despite the current campaign of one user against such articles, other student unions have been found notable, so non-notability is not an innate attribute of such organizations. And a former US president was involved in this organization.--Patrick Ѻ 00:28, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
