[edit] Young Numismatists of America

Appears to be a non-notable branch of an organization. It might be worthy of a merge to American Numismatic Association but there's no much in here that seems worthy of a merge. Google hits of about 2,700 but not much of that is outside coverage from what I can see. Delete as non-notable and unsourced. Metros232 12:15, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - if this article is to be believed these people aren't even notable to themselves! BTLizard 13:11, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. It sounds like a notable youth organization operating on an international scale, albeit primarily in the United States. Numismatic publications such as Coin World and Numismatic News restrict access to much of their online articles to subscribers only, which is why outside coverage by these publications doesn't show up on Google. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 19:32, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Okay, "sounds like a notable youth organization" doesn't prove its notability nor does it address the issue of it being unsourced. Metros232 11:46, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge or keep.-Kmaguir1 08:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Why? Metros232 11:40, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to American Numismatic Association. There is a real concern about lack of third party coverage. Despite Truthbringer's argument about Coin World and Numismatic News, the fact is that there are tons of numismatics content on the web but relatively few mentions of this association [1].

  • Comment: Keep it. I am a member of this group and I feel that they are small but expanding. I would alos like to point out that they where recently mentioned in Coin World and that most of the info. in the article is on their website (ynaclub.org)

• Merge not notable outside its parent organization.--Peta 10:00, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
