Ineligible for PROD due to previous PROD in Oct 2007. It was tagged for lacking notability then and I believe the same is still true today. No sources located to show a pass of WP:GNG or WP:NORG. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 06:22, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. A very worthy organization, but like the nominator I am unable to find independent sources covering its activities. Maybe someone can come up with something about the conferences and other activities described in the article and in the group's website; so far, at least, I couldn't do so. --Arxiloxos (talk) 06:28, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not to be That Person, but could you explain for the layperson what that document is and how it confers notability per our standards? Was the California Turtle & Tortoise Society a party that attended the symposium (and would therefore be in the index), or was the organization discussed in-depth at the symposium? ♠PMC♠ (talk) 20:50, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
