[edit] Black Mountain Camp

No source provided; no argument for notability provided either, the author created about 30 articles like this, except without any text in them at all. I speedied them all, as CSD A1. Unless some explanation of why this is notable or verifiable can be provided, Delete. JesseW, the juggling janitor 22:13, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Move: I've noticed these pages popping up too and I found out where they're comming from. These articles all talk about a particular campsite at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. The reason why they are all popping up is that the Philmont article has a link created for each campsite. It seems to me that these articles are notable for anyone looking at the Philmont page, but are not very notable to Wikipedia as a whole. I proposed in the discussion page that these articles be moved into subpages under the main Philmont article (If you want to debate this issue, go to the discussion page). If that doesn't work, we could at least set up a Philont category and list all the campsites there. Solarusdude 22:22, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

• Merge as suggested. And the same for the rest of these articles. Vegaswikian 06:25, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rich Cabins Camp for reasoning. — Dan | Talk 02:28, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
• Comment: Since there are a bunch of these articles up for nomination - all for the same reason, is there a way we can merge all discussions under one AFD? It would certainly make it easier to keep track of the debate. Solarusdude 04:57, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I went to Philmont so I may be biased but these should be kept. Here's why: more than 700,000 Scouts and leaders have backpacked through Philmont since 1938. These camps are familar to many people. With some additional work, the articles could be useful. I tried merging them into a Camps of Philmont article but if quality information is added to each subheading, that article will be enormous. The information could be valuable but the only way to share it is to keep all the individual articles.--L1AM 10:26, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
