Capital District Key Club International[edit]

Non notable district/region of a notable organisation. A list of past officers/convention sites doesn't add to its importance. Redirect to Key Club perhaps Gbawden (talk) 07:09, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment @Gbawden: if you want the page to be redirected instead of deleted then you should do it yourself and not make an AfD out of it. Is that what you're advocating? Dea db eef 07:26, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I would rather delete but if others prefer a redirect I would be happy with that. I would have redirected it myself but given the effort that went into it I suspected my redir would have been reverted so felt a discusson was warranted. Gbawden (talk) 07:37, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, I stand at redirect to Key Club per WP:CHEAP as the nominated district fails WP:GNG et al. Dea db eef 07:49, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The District has over 16,000 members and raises almost $100k every year for various charities. There is no argument that is is a notable district. That being said, the page needs work; the list of past governors is now around seventy individuals, just has not made it online yet. The same goes for District Conventions, which have happened annually since the 50's. Out of 33 Districts internationally, it is by no means the only one with its own Wikipedia entry, either. See Southwest District Key Club and California-Nevada-Hawaii District Key Club International as examples. User:Jxmorris 15:22 17 November 2014 (UTC)

There is no argument that is is a notable district. Yes, there is. It is almost nonexistent in its online coverage and elsewhere. I'll refer the new editor and seeming SPA to WP:GNG and invite them to explain how this page meets, or could ever meet, this policy. Out of 33 Districts internationally, it is by no means the only one with its own Wikipedia entry, either. See WP:OSE. Dea db eef 22:10, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This page should be called "Capital District of Key Club International". Not sure why the "of" is missing; if it could be replaced, our problems, hopefully, would be solved. See here. User:jxmorris 23:22, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately not. Even with the modified search term, there is no substantial secondary coverage of the district to establish notability. My stance remains. Dea db eef 00:45, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. The list of Past Governors has been updated. List of Convention locations and themes to come, along with a secondary source. Thanks for your help. User:jxmorris 14:57, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Update: Our District is covered in The Capital Kiwanian, Capital District Kiwanis' magazine, here: [[1]]. Source added to the main page as well. User:jxmorris 00:43, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That appears to be a primary source; secondary sources are needed to establish notability per WP:GNG. I can't find sufficient proof that these exist. Deadbeef 19:50, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
