local branch of a national organization. We normally do not make such articles. The one rRS is nt sufficient. DGG ( talk ) 00:29, 6 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Normally I'd agree, but many other branches of this organization have Wikipedia pages to themselves. The non-profit only recently converted "national," and used to be a series of copycat pop-ups. Each 826 has its own website, theme, and is referred to as an "826 location," not "826 National" location. News coverage for different branches doesn't overlap. See 826LA, 826 Valencia, 826michigan and even James Franco (who helped fund 826DC) for coverage of chapters as separate entities. If this is deleted for being a chapter, all 4 other current-standing Wiki pages of 826 chapters should be deleted for clarity, and morphed into either an 826 page or fall under 826 National... except the founding part of this organization was 826 Valencia, not the national office. I agree it's a dicey situation, but considering the small size (8 chapters), I think this page should stay just for clarity's sake. Rexlikescheese (talk) 01:49, 6 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

every local branch of a national organization has its own website. At this point, everything that could possibly have a website has its own website,. DGG ( talk ) 20:57, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You can delete it, but what do we do about its contents? It might be suitable for the 826 National page, but what about the other branches (826LA and 826 Valencia)? We can't delete 826 Valencia because this was the foundation of the company. We also can't delete 826 National because this is the umbrella for all the organizations now, but started after 826 Valencia. Should we delete 826LA?

Redirect to 826 National - does not meet WP:NORG and there's a suitable redirect target. Advertorially toned. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:30, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Merge to 826 National; some details about the individual store facades should be included in that article after a merge. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:39, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
