Recommend Merge with Republican National Committee. This information belongs on that page as relevant, and more importantly, it is difficult to maintain as these members change all the time. A spot check has shown a few RNC members on this list that haven't been members in over 4 years. UnrepentantTaco (talk) 02:14, 31 May 2013 (UTC) [Edit reverted as per WP:BE and [1].

Merge I agree, this makes sense to merge. Capitalismojo (talk) 02:15, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and Redirect to Republican National Committee per UnrepentantTaco. Per WP:NOTNEWS & WP:NOTDIRECTORY, does warrant standalone article.--JayJasper (talk) 17:02, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This list is fine either as a stand-alone article or within the main RNC article. Deletion isn't the course as this is appropriate, encyclopedic material. To the nominator, AfD is the wrong venue to propose mergers, although this probably won't be ended early. Next time you wish to propose a merger use WP:PM or be bold and do it yourself if the subject isn't controversial. Them From Space 17:12, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Question Do we really need an article on (to quote the article itself): "voting members of the Republican National Committee as of August, 2009"? An interested person can go to the RNC's (or the DNC's) own website and find a current list of members. WP is not a directory. Borock (talk) 17:16, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge - Should not be a standalone piece, per WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Merger to Republican National Committee would seem an appropriate context (and would be more apt to be properly maintained than a stand-alone piece). Carrite (talk) 17:29, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The full RNC piece has about 7,000 views in the past month, this member list just over 400. Far better chance that politicos will fix inaccuracies as a supplement to the main piece... Carrite (talk) 17:38, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
