Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Organizations
![]() | Points of interest related to Organizations on Wikipedia: Category – WikiProject – Alerts – Deletions – Stubs – Assessment |
This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Organizations and social programs. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Organizations|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Organizations and social programs. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
Suggested inclusion guidelines for this topic area can be found at WP:ORG.

- Keep - The Irving literary society was both formative within the early history of such societies, serving as an example to those who were established in subsequent decades, and the Irving was solidly documented in the newspapers and books of the time. We already list 43 references, and while JSTOR notes more, the current count is probably overkill. No, the Irving was not a topic for first-tier national newspapers, like the NYT. But editors who are knowledgeable about early campus societies (Fraternities, sororities, honor societies and literary societies) realize that such blanketing coverage is not likely unless the group becomes notorious for some scandal. Rather, the Irving was covered extensively in its time by the city and campus papers, in biographies, and such mentions were common over subsequent decades. Notability does not diminish over time. This is an unnecessary and unwarranted deletion prod. Jax MN (talk) 17:49, 27 August 2025 (UTC)

Keep. There is coverage in the following articles [2], [3], and [4]. There are some passing mentions in [5], [6], [7]. As a student union this would be a nonprofit, and as a coalition of students it is also education related. The coverage in sourcing includes sources from outside Scotland and is not just local but national so appears to pass WP:NONPROFIT.

It doesn't appear to be a real party (although it has a symbol), but a provincial council group composed of a single person. No other members appear to have joined it. The sources that just mention this group are very few (there are a few more sources on its chairman, Andreas Leiter Reber). If it were to structure itself as a real party and participate in elections in the future, then the page could be recreated, but currently it is failing WP:Notability.

Fails WP:V and WP:RS: article is outdated, misleading, and based on dead or unverifiable sources. Lacks independent coverage to meet WP:N.
This article should be deleted because it fails core Wikipedia content policies, specifically WP:V and WP:RS. Almost all of the information is significantly outdated and misleading, with references that are either dead or do not verify the claims made. As a result, the article does not reflect a neutral or accurate representation of the subject, contrary to WP:NPOV.
Attempts have been made to address these issues through all proper channels: declaring a conflict of interest and editing transparently, submitting edit requests, engaging on the talk page, and even proposing deletion through WP:PROD. However, the fundamental problems remain unresolved. Without reliable, independent, secondary sources providing verifiable and up-to-date coverage, the subject does not meet Wikipedia’s notability requirements (WP:N).
In its current form, the article promotes misinformation rather than providing encyclopedic value, and this misinformation is actively harmful to the organisation it describes, since the content is inaccurate and misleading to readers. For these reasons, I believe deletion is the most appropriate outcome. RoseOpenBritain (talk) 16:50, 18 August 2025 (UTC)

- Keep clearly passes notability requirements with extensive independent and reliable sources that cover the organisation, particularly for its activity during the main "Brexit" years, so deletion seems inappropriate here. I do however completely understand the points raised by the nominator (who I note has a disclosed COI) about the current state of the page, and will try to update it accordingly using more recent sources that ensure the page's claims are verified and accurate. Greenleader(2) (talk) 11:23, 23 August 2025 (UTC)
- Additional information and COI declaration: Thank you for your constructive responses. I should formally declare here that I have a conflict of interest as I work with Open Britain (this is also noted on my user page). To clarify the current issues: Open Britain has changed significantly from its historical role during the Brexit campaign and now operates as a pro-democracy organisation focused on electoral reform https://www.politicshome.com/news/article/voter-id-elections-chaos-new-rules-polling-station https://bylinetimes.com/2024/12/04/keir-starmer-rejects-call-for-fairer-votes-despite-mps-voting-in-favour-of-proportional-representation/. However, the current Wikipedia article contains severely outdated information - of all directors listed, only Mark Kieran remains registered with Companies House, with the rest having resigned. This outdated content is actively harmful to the organisation's current work. The organisation manages the largest APPG in Parliament and will play an essential role when the government announces its upcoming elections bill. Therefore, it is key that members of the public can find accurate and up to date information about Open Britain. I have prepared a fully sourced and current draft (User:RoseOpenBritain/Open Britain Draft) that demonstrates how this topic can be covered accurately with proper sourcing. If deletion is not the preferred outcome, this draft could guide necessary updates to address the verifiability and accuracy concerns I've raised. Given the organisation's current prominent role in electoral reform, having accurate information available is important for public understanding. If dramatic changes are not made to this page, Wikipedia will be platforming misinformation which actively harms the organisation - this is concerning. Thank you for your help so far. ~~~~
- RoseOpenBritain (talk) 15:15, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
- Keep passes WP:SIGCOV. While I can sympathize with Rose's desire to control content about her organization, wikipedia is limited in what we can say by the content we have in WP:Reliable sources which for our purposes mean the content found in independent WP:SECONDARYSOURCES. We are also an encyclopedia which means we have an interest in documenting the entire history of an organization and not just its current activities. In looking at the materials being used by Rose in user space, many of them are not independent and are therefore not usable on wikipedia. Others don't entirely verify the proposed text, and there appears to be WP:SYNTH with conclusions which can't be found in any one source. Currently I can't see adopting most of the proposed text or incorporating most of the materials on that page. @RoseOpenBritain: Rather than try and control what wikipedia is writing, I suggest that Open Britain works toward grabbing the attention of independent journalists and academics and try and generate interest in writing on what Open Britain is currently doing and how it has evolved across time. Once independent sources start documenting and publishing material on how Open Britain has changed wikipedia can cover that evolution. By nature, our encyclopedia has delayed coverage of events because we rely on journalists and academics to do their work first. Inevitably we do have systemic bias because of our reliance on external sourcing. That isn't something we can change because of our policies about WP:Verifiability and our strict policies in independent sourcing for writing on WP:Organizations.4meter4 (talk) 03:31, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

The article does not meet the general notability guideline (WP:GNG) all current references are either self published group website, Facebook, Reddit or minor mentions in non independent outlets.

Merge. BKFC Thailand ad BKFC UK are pointless. The relevant information of both pages has already been merged into the main article Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. The events, champions, history. I don't understand why these pages were created in the first place. Both pages are merely the main company hosting events in other countries. It's like we would create a page for UFC UK, or UFC Asia, but will almost no coverage and no events. BKFC UK has had held 8 events and BKFC Thailand has had 5 total events and is now defunct as of 2025! The main page is notable, not the branches.
Both pages lack independent coverage, and cite majoritly primary sources (BKFC.com). Events of from UK are already list inside the main promotion's list of yearly events see: 2022 in Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship#Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship 27: London. There is absolutely no need to have the extra pages except to confuse readers.
I am also nominating the following related pages:

- Comment: What is the proposed action? If content from these two articles were merged to Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, the articles' histories must be retained to preserve attribution.

I can't find any independent coverage of this Austrian women's football squad. All the coverage that comes up (and that's in this article) is from the squad's own website. An IP has on multiple occasions reverted a redirect to First Vienna FC as an AtD, so seeking an AfD consensus for a stable redirect. (And if anyone can find coverage for this subject to pass WP:NSPORT, all the better.) Dclemens1971 (talk) 22:18, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- @Dclemens1971: "I can't find any independent coverage" Really? what is this meinbezirk.at then? You don’t bother to research, you just throw around false accusations. And now you’re trying to rally support for a redirect just because an IP dared to revert your edits. That speaks volumes. 2003:100:3700:BC00:484F:27F9:24C2:2F70 (talk) 12:10, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

- Strong keep So the grand plan here is to pretend the women's team doesn't exist by quietly redirecting it to the men's article? That’'s not just lazy, it's embarrassing. We have endless articles about obscure villages with a few dozen people and barely a mention in passing sources, yet somehow a women's football team playing under Austria's oldest club doesn't “deserve” its own page?
- And no, it’s not true that there are “no independent sources.” Here’s one right here: MeinBezirk.at, which actually profiles the women’s side. If that’s not enough, match results, league coverage, and local sports reporting are all out there — if you bother to look.
- What really surprises me is how quickly people jump to “redirect!” instead of thinking, “maybe we should develop the article?” Isn’t that supposed to be the point of an encyclopedia? And by the way, the topic already has articles in three other language Wikipedias. Nobody there seems to be wringing their hands about “lack of sources.” But sure, let’s make the English version the most censored, because apparently if CNN doesn’t cover the topic, it doesn’t count, as we only care about the American audience!
- This is not one editor’s “job” to fix alone — the article exists, the team exists, the sources exist. Pretending otherwise and redirecting to the men’s club is nothing more than sweeping women’s football under the rug. A redirect is simply shameful! 2003:100:3700:BC00:484F:27F9:24C2:2F70 (talk) 12:02, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

- @Aydoh8: Entire articles about historic figures from various regions have been written using only non-English sources. The language should not matter if the topic is well-covered. Since this is an Austrian club, it’s natural that the main references would be in German.

- Redirect to First Vienna FC. I searched in German and the only independent source I could locate was this article [8]. The Austrian National Library archives (which include most Austrian newspapers, journals, and magazines) had nothing, and the Die Presse archives were equally barren. I am fairly confident that the Austrian media has largely ignored this football team. The sourcing just doesn't exist to support an article. There is gender bias here. However, it is not coming from wikipedia but the Austrian media and writers who cover sports in that country. We fundamentally can't create articles on topics where there are not enough materials to pass WP:SIGCOV/WP:ORG/ WP:NSPORT. It's of course possible I missed offline materials or sources behind paywalls, and I would be happy to change my vote if another editor has success locating sources.

This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP requires at least two deep or significant sources with each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.

This article was created a few years ago as a stub, without much information and citing a further reading drawn from the French Wikipedia. None of the sources in the further reading appear to have given significant coverage of the camp. Renaud Violet said that the existence of the camp was announced in Régénération, as a footnote to discussion of Faure's La Ruche, and that "it seems that this holiday camp was not a success, as we hear no more about it." Céline Beaudet doesn't appear to mention the camp at all. Michel Antony mentions it in passing as an anarchist camp. The French Wikipedia article leaves little to be desired either, as it's mostly cobbled together from individual biographies of people tangentially affiliated with the camp. I also looked it up on Google Scholar and found no results.[9]
As there is no significant coverage of this subject in reliable sources, and as the one source that does give it any detail says it was short-lived and there's not much known about it, I'm nominating this article for deletion. Grnrchst (talk) 10:20, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

Not sure about this current article title but it did indeed exist as "Le Rayon de soleil" (and "La Nature pour tous") in Châtelaillon. There are a number of sources via Google Books that mention the vacation spot in passing in relation to Libertad, hence why it should redirect there as an alternative to deletion. There might be more in non-English works about Libertad but will leave that for another search. Beaudet discusses the topic in pp. 57–59. czar 03:16, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

- Part of the problem is that French Catholic media is mostly paywalled. For example, we can see from this post[16] that Cardinal Sarah's greeting to the group in 2017 was published by L'Homme nouveau, but they don't have an accessible online archive. There are also some references to the French name of the group in Google books, but they're mostly all still in copyright and not accessible. Jahaza (talk) 01:18, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: A weak vote from me as a new-ish editor, but with no COI, I'm not Roman Catholic. This association is a French-Italian-Polish organisation, judging from the board of directors, and in French there is a lot of additional sources. I have added 2 French sources, one from the Dicastery for Laity, the other from Radio chrétienne francophone - and I could have added more. The Dicastery is (yet) another Curia department, so arguably still WP:PRIMARYSOURCE, but it is a mass participation body and I would say high profile, and operates under its own steam. That first link also has a lot of suitable extra material to improve the article in question here, which I / anyone can update if the consensus is to retain. The RCF link - that is an independent radio station, within a pro-Christian mindset. It is part funded by some Catholic stakeholders. The link is of an radio interview with the French president of the Association, some extracts are on the web page, more in the embedded media. There isn't much more there to support the article, but what I thought was pertinent was that when the radio station wanted to talk about St. Benedict and Europe, this was the person to whom they turned. She then went on to bash the late French President Chirac for apparently trying to downplay the Christian heritage of modern Europe, I have no idea about that, but it does indicate that Mme. Chapon had a particular message to push out, connected with her job with the Association. But yes, this Wiki article isn't a good one, it is poorly written, badly sourced, can be improved. I think traditional Wiki sourcing isn't picking this up too well since it operates in multiple languages, mostly not English, and uses multiple translations of the Association's name, rather than sticking to one version. ChrysGalley (talk) 10:28, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
- The French link to the Dicastery for Laity is just the French version of the English directory listing already in the article and discussed in my nomination. The RCF content is an interview with the CEO about Saint Benedict, not WP:SIGCOV of the association, and it's not independent coverage at any rate since it's an WP:INTERVIEW. I don't see how either of these sources gets us any closer to WP:NORG here. Dclemens1971 (talk) 11:20, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
- The point I was perhaps not clear about was that on the RCF web page, not the interview, the RCF journalist states - in summary - that after St. Benedict was awarded the title, some clerics wanted to respond to the proclamation by creating the association. So this is a statement on RCF's page and I take that as a Secondary source (WP:SECONDARY), separate and independent of the WP:MAINSOURCE. In addition there is a bit of NORG by dint of what the Association's president was doing, in a public forum, and why she said it - I accept it's not direct to the article. ChrysGalley (talk) 12:00, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

- 4meter4, can you elaborate on how this passes SIGCOV? The first book you linked appears to have one page of coverage (on p. 180). Ross-2019 p. 151–152 has one paragraph. George-2013 is available from WP:TWL, and has one paragraph on p. S-188. I did not search books or scholar myself, but can you list two or three sources that have book or chapter-length coverage, or a journal article in which it is the main subject? From what I can see so far, there isn't significant coverage in even one independent source. Mathglot (talk) 07:58, 24 August 2025 (UTC)
- Sure. In this case we have encyclopedic claims about the institution in reliable source. If we have independent sources saying this is a significant school, even if it is not lengthy, those claims to my mind are strong evidence of notability. It's not the length here of the text but the actual statements about the school indicating this is an encyclopedic topic. One of the sources states it was the first Pentecostal seminary to gain university accreditation in India, and the first to offer master and doctoral level degrees, and for that reason, a large percentage of Pentecostal academics in Christian theology in India are graduates of the school.

ROSA International is an "international", with demonstrable sections in multiple countries. This article for ROSA is currently more focused on the activities of those associated with the organisation in Ireland rather than the international as a whole. Currently there is a subsection for ROSA as an international on International Socialist Alternative (ISA) as that is the organisation that founded ROSA and its National Sections (such as Socialist Party Ireland) were lead elements within it. However there have been disaffiliations from ISA since then, including the Socialist Party Ireland) leaving the nature of ROSA unclear. Their own social media still suggests they're still affiliated[18] so believe that until we have reliable sources otherwise, this article should be either:
- Merged into ISA due to the existing subsection.
- Moved to clarify it is only referring to the Irish section (i.e. ROSA (Irish Section)).
Given the limited RS on the subject I would prefer merging to ISA as that would alleviate this issue as there are sources about ROSA activities outside of Ireland on the ISA article. Rambling Rambler (talk) 15:11, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Organizations, Politics, and Ireland. Rambling Rambler (talk) 15:11, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
- I think the issue is that the "Irish section" of ROSA is notable (clear coverage in national news sources) whereas the "international" section is likely not. The "solution" is not deletion. Deleting an article about an organisation because one part of it is much more well-known than the rest doesn't make any sense. At most, renaming (although I don't know, I'm convinced of that) is considerable. The status quo, with some tweaks, is not unreasonable. CeltBrowne (talk) 22:49, 16 August 2025 (UTC)

- Weak keep. As far as I have been able to research, the party is significantly covered by multiple English-language sources—including the English versions of RTVSLO, The Slovenia Times and Slovenian Press Agency—from November 2024 ([23]), January 2025 ([24] [25] [26] [27] [28]) and April 2025 ([29]). It has also routinely appeared in some opinion polls since November 2024 until now. Plus, its leader and founder is the current president of the upper house of the Slovenian parliament.
- Granted, the sources, while can be argued to be reliable, independent and secondary, are Slovenian-based (even if in English). It also gets covered in China-CEE ([30]), but together with other new Slovenian parties (and I am not sure about the nature of the source). And the party's results in opinion polls are not impressive. This is why my keep is "weak", but I think the party passes the notability threshold, even if barely.

- Switching to merge per Lorraine Crane. Not enough for notability, but Bull. At. Sci. is a solid source. Paradoctor (talk) 17:48, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
- Anything @Paradoctor? I see 391 hits in ProQuest for ""CANDU Owners group" and another 165 in Wikipedia Library - some of them academic journals. Can you tell me more about your BEFORE? I'm curious where @GenuineArt, @Mean as custard, and @Lorraine Crane checked as well - before I start delving through over 500 references! Nfitz (talk) 21:27, 17 August 2025 (UTC)
- Huh. Repeated my usual sweep, and now I got results that at least mention them. The only explanation I have that my original query had a typo or something. 🤷 From what I see, though, finding the nuggets among the dross is going to require some digging, it mostly mentions in the context of reactor-related topics. Paradoctor (talk) 22:51, 17 August 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not sure @Paradoctor what one would expect other than reactor-related topics. A CANDU is a type of reactor - somewhat unique in it's usage of heavy water and unenriched uranium. This would be a group of organisations that have this type of reactor. Perhaps I'm missing something in your comment? Nfitz (talk) 16:48, 18 August 2025 (UTC)
- Don't ping me. I'm watching, obviously.
- Sources on the reactor type, but not the group. Employ, not define. You'll see that very quickly for yourself when you look at the sources. Paradoctor (talk) 17:04, 18 August 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, I understand. I guess I've some digging to do! Please do ping me though - I'm certainly not watching very closely (not sure why it's obvious who would and wouldn't be watching). Nfitz (talk) 08:08, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

- I don't really think the nominator should have much involvement afterwards - unless there's a specific question. It's a process, not a campaign. Though I rarely nominate anything that is completely non-contentious. Though I don't have anything on my watchlist TBH - it's too annoying. Nfitz (talk) 21:34, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- @Nfitz: How do you learn from your errors if not by watching them happen? How do share what you've learned if not by getting involved?
- "non-contentious" You need some philosophy in your life, friend! ^_^ Paradoctor (talk) 23:23, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- If someone wants input, they'll do the polite thing and ping me! Nfitz (talk) 20:31, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
- @Nfitz: I did. Pro tip: add "ping me!" to your sig. Takes the guessing out of it. Paradoctor (talk) 21:25, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
- I don't believe in sigs. Nfitz (talk) 22:00, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
- Ok, but then you have no standing to call others impolite for not knowing your idiosyncratic preferences. Paradoctor (talk) 23:33, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
- No one has called anyone else impolite. However with that last comment you have indeed become unpolite and crossed over into both failing to AGF and a personal attack. That this is being done about such an unrelated and minor issue baffles me. Can I suggest that you just stop this absurd discussion, and try and appreciate that someone pinging you isn't impolite!

- No Problem, I am welcome to possible discoveries of more SIGCOV sources mainly about the "group" and not the Reactor Tech itself to defend the pages notability. Do provide here some samples and we can recheck these together.

- Delete I have not found in-depth coverage of the "nonprofit" group that promotes the CANDU reactors of its members. Sources are primary or shallow mentions about/comments from Conexus.

This is basically an essay about justifying what the organization does (with very little sourcing) but does not indicate how the organization itself notable per WP:GNG or WP:NORG.

- Delete: Can't find anything that meets WP:SIRS. I found a lot of trivial mentions, routine event announcements, and a few non-independent sources; it is difficult to sift through them all. It doesn't help that this article has been written by apparent WP:COI editors. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 17:07, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. This organizations has extensive news coverage over time and appears in several books. The article needing clean up and better citation isn't cause for deletion. Yuchitown (talk) 15:18, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
- @Yuchitown Can you show us some sources that meet the criteria in WP:SIRS? Helpful Raccoon (talk) 16:46, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
- Never mind, I see you added sources to the article. I will review them shortly. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 16:47, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
- I can probably add some over time. What I added was just to explain the basic structure of the organization. Yuchitown (talk) 17:03, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
- The charityintelligence.ca source looks like it might satisfy WP:SIRS, but the others do not. Unfortunately, this is only one source. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 17:09, 9 August 2025 (UTC)
- Like I wrote, what I added was just to explain the basic structure of the organization. There's mentions in that are behind paywalls, but the fact that I can't access them doesn't prevent other editors from doing so. Yuchitown (talk) 20:38, 9 August 2025 (UTC)

- This article has been around for 15 years. There haven't been any reliable sources added that significantly discuss the organization in all that time. Just explaining the structure of the organization is not sufficient. ... discospinster talk 16:06, 10 August 2025 (UTC)
- Their class is notable and the subject of independent coverage. I've improved the article and culled much of the unnecessary details. There are still more sources that can be drawn upon. Yuchitown (talk) 16:08, 10 August 2025 (UTC)
- Keep- skimmed thru the citations a bit, and does show potential for it being standalone article. If the article still lacks SIGCOV citations not opposed to draftify as an ATD to give the authors more time to improve the article.Lorraine Crane (talk) 17:35, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

- Comment (adding on to my previous !vote): I've cleaned up the article a bit but I still don't see notability. Charityintelligence probably satisfies WP:SIRS. The Narwhal mainly quotes/paraphrases from the org's founder and doesn't have much independent coverage otherwise. rabble.ca only has a listicle entry which isn't really significant coverage. The Tyee has only a course announcement and doesn't really discuss the organization itself. The other sources are obviously non-independent or only contain trivial mentions. So, there's one source that cleanly satisfies WP:SIRS and three more with bits of coverage. I don't think that's enough.
- If there are more sources that could be added, even if paywalled, I would like to see them instead of relying on assertions that they exist. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 21:34, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Article has improved during the AfD, including added sources. Good idea to give this another week before we decide.
