The result was redirect to American_Association_of_Christian_Schools#State_associations. Fails notability guidelines; no prejudice against recreation if a new version contains sufficient reliable sources to establish notability. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:24, 2 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

After some research, appears to fail our WP:GNG and WP:ORG. Others to prove me wrong are encouraged! Assume good faith and improve the article if you think you can! Thanks. SarahStierch (talk) 05:20, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

comment - possible sources (and some of these aren't readable online, but perhaps someone could access from a library). [1], [2]. It is significant enough to be specificically mentioned in South Carolina statute. [3]. It also evidently has a branch for school-sports regulation league the receives local coverage [4]. I don't know if there is such a thing as inherently notable for educational accrediting associations, but it seems to be one of three (including the State) that have official status in South Carolina. 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 12:35, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I saw all of those sources too, but there was nothing that triggered me to declare reliable secondary let alone notable. Perhaps the schools and the statures are more notable. We'll see what others say though. Thanks for your comment! SarahStierch (talk) 15:35, 4 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- It seems a harmless article to me. Why not keep it? Peterkingiron (talk) 21:05, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per 78.26. St Anselm (talk) 21:24, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Absolutely no sources at all. Does not establish notability, or even that this exists. Gamaliel (talk) 23:45, 23 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete - Inclusion is state law is an interesting source, but it mostly appears to be insubstantial and/or local only. --— Rhododendrites ^talk | 16:36, 30 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect (but not merge) to American_Association_of_Christian_Schools#State_associations. I don't see coverage that gets us to WP:ORG, having checked the article, the usual searches, plus Highbeam. And the attribution issue (y'all did notice that some of the text was borrowed from the AACS article, and reads like it was taken from a mission statement, yeah?) leaves me wondering if there's a deeper old copyvio in what little text we have here. --j⚛e decker ^talk 22:54, 30 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
