[edit] Nova Libertas

Non-notable ultra-liberal organization. Most probably vanity (seems to have been created by Vincent De Roeck (proposed Afd), the president of the organization, under the name User:Berchemboy, see uploader of Image:Deroeckdegucht.JPG) Edcolins 11:57, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. Per nom. --Edcolins 11:57, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep this article. The organization does exist. It is a thinktank, well-known in Leuven and this article definitely do not merit a deletion. I agree that some words (like e.g. "eminent") are to be erased, but the article in general is not better nor worse than others. --User:Berchemboy 2 july 2006
  • Delete fails to meet WP:ORG - "Nova Libertas" +site:be gets zero ghits; well-known in Leuven, well perhaps, but not at the other end of the N2. Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:39, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. They're libertarian not liberal (big difference), not that that should matter. I'm suspicious when an AfD has political trigger words in it, I always wonder what ulterior motive the nominator may have. In this case though the group appears non-notable, the Google search brings up Wikipedia and mirrors plus a few blogs. Ifnord 16:07, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
    • er.. there was no ulterior motive, sorry about that. You are right, it is indeed unnecessary to qualify the organization in the nomination. I've amended this. Thanks. --Edcolins 18:52, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, fails WP:ORG, whether it exists or not. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 19:21, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. Zos 23:08, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
