Article about a college student club, referenced exclusively to the college's own internal student newspaper — which, while nominally independent of the club, is not widely distributed enough to count toward meeting WP:GNG — and other content on the college's own website — which is an entirely invalid primary source. Further, the article makes no claim of actual notability that would satisfy WP:ORG, but serves only as a statement that the group exists — which is not what gets an organization, student club or otherwise, into Wikipedia.

  • Delete: No independent sources. School clubs without national reach have generally been held not to be notable. Scarcely an assertion of notability, never mind a credible one. This is a slamdunk. Ravenswing 06:21, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
