The result was Keep (non-admin closure) per WP:SNOWBALL. The subject is obviously notable. Nominator does not seem have have a clear grasp on policy; all of his AFD's have been meet with a unanimous keep consensus. Possibly a bad faith nomination. -Icewedge (talk) 02:11, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good Samaritan Hospital (Suffern)

Seemingly well referenced but incurable failure of WP:ORG for local organizations. Earthtried1985 (talk) 21:48, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I don't see how it fails WP:ORG given the multiple references. Note also that this is a brand new account whose first contributions are four AfDs within a minute. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 21:53, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note, also, that this user's first contribution is the installation of Twinkle. Very suspicious. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 21:55, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note: there is no AfD on the article and from the history it doesn't appear there ever was one. I don't know how to retro add one. TRAVELLINGCARI^{My story}_{Tell me yours} 02:42, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Creator Keep, apart from the nom's apparent issue with hospitals as s/he seems to have nominated all the Good Sams, this one is definitely notable. It's the only cardiac provider between NYC and Albany and its JCAHO certifications are notable for a hospital this size and the first hospital in New York State to earn both JCAHO Primary Stroke Center certification, along with state designation as a Primary Stroke Center (verbatim and sourced from the article). I admit the history section has primary source issues because it's sourced almost wholly from the hospital's anniversary information, but that doesn't invalidate notability.

Keep There is sufficient sourcing to pass WP:ORG. Hospitals are serious, encyclopedic subjects that are important to their communities, and we should have articles on them. Why is there no AfD tag on the article? Noroton (talk) 05:26, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
