Maliyadeva Scout Group

Looks to be a college scout group with no notability and it looks like the wiki page is used as their web site Corpx (talk) 02:54, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, it's a Scouting unit chartered to this university — essentially what would be called a "Scout troop" elsewhere in the world, a small group with a few dozen members at most. Except for a very rare situation, an individual troop can't be notable, and this one clearly isn't that very rare situation. Nyttend (talk) 02:58, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The AfD notice was removed from the article on 28 June and I have only just found this and added it back. Also this article was not known to the WikiProject Scouting until I just notified them of it. For both these reasons, I suggest that this be not closed until the project can consider possable merges. I would also add that it is not attached to a university, but to a High School. Neverless, articles on individual Scout Groups are not notable and we have even removed lists of Groups in some articles. This article should be either deleted or merged in part to another article on Scouting in Sri Lanka. It should also be transwikied to the ScoutWiki. --Bduke (Discussion) 23:38, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
delete, not much to merge, all of local interest only. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 09:06, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
