Keep - Notable organization. My rationale is no more half-assed than this cut-and-paste nomination, which smacks of bad faith and a lack of any research whatsoever. Carrite (talk) 02:35, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please assume good faith as you would want good faith to be assumed on your contributions and nominations. Hasteur (talk) 13:51, 12 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What is one supposed to think about 20 or so nominations, all of which coincidentally begin with ALPHA, without anything more than a simple cut-and-pasted 4 word "rationale" and no visible evidence that the slightest effort was made to separate the sheep from the goats? Pro-forma nomination gets a pro-forma defense, and all these should be ruled a procedural keep by the closing administrator unless valid indication that the NOMINATION had merit can be demonstrated by delete voters.

Keep -- the Scholar link above makes it fairly obvious that there is sufficient notability for an article. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 03:20, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per above comments. NYCRuss ☎ 12:58, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - This is an organization worthy of recognition. Many people who are affiliated look to this source to stay updated on the past or present of Alpha Xi Delta. User: natascha.saylor
Strong keep. Major national sorority. —C.Fred (talk) 01:27, 12 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Per the discussion at ANI on the "Bizarre AFDs" by this editor, I urge a SPEEDY PROCEDURAL CLOSE of this and all other clearly bad-faith, automated ALPHA-BLANK-BLANK challenges, without prejudice to the opening of a new AfD debate on the limited number of pages which may well not meet Wikipedia's inclusion standards.
