Fails WP:GNG, completely unsourced article about a campus publication. Kleuske (talk) 13:25, 7 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually there are sources but they were not displayed correctly (I've put this right). However, the sources are not independent and do not amount to extensive coverage by reliable sources. I'm inlined to the view that this is not notable. Delete. Emeraude (talk) 13:58, 7 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails notability test and nothing online suggests it is of significance beyond its immediate subscribers. In addition, content of article is almost entirely a cut/paste copyvio of content found here, and I can find no Creative Commons release anywhere on the Raffia website. There is a corresponding article on Dutch wiki, but nothing there I can see to support WP:GNG. In addition, there is a WP:COI with the article creator. The user name (GlynMuitjens) also appears on the Raffia editorial board here, so there is a WP:ADV concern here, too. Nick Moyes (talk) 23:03, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
