[edit] Kappa Alpha Kappa

Kappa Alpha Kappa (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Fails N. Only one chapter located at one college. Also, the article looks like an advertisement. miranda 09:52, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

weak delete Being located at only on school is certainly not grounds in of itself for being deleted. Many one school organizations are very powerful with long and storied histories. The machine at Alabama the secret societies of the Ivy league are just a few better known. However in this case the article is poorly written reads like an advert and when i did a search to see if i could expand it i came up with nothing. Still i want to stress that i believe that using a one school notability criteria is treading on dangerous ground and could run the risk of bias or just plain old losing good articles on good organizations.Trey (talk) 19:06, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete as nn - as is fails WP:N. The mention of the society on the school article page should suffice. Sting au Buzz Me... 01:23, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete unless news coverage in WP:RS can be found. JJL (talk) 02:03, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, it doesn't matter how many chapters the organisation has, so long as it meets the required standards of WP:N and WP:V. This does not. Lankiveil (complaints | disco) 13:15, 19 January 2008 (UTC).
  • Delete - Looks like a lot like a hoax to me. Says its been around since 1928 and only has a Tripod page ??? Proove me wrong and I'll switch my opinion. Exit2DOS2000•T•C• 14:25, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
