[edit] The Haverford Review

Nomination for deletion I'm sure this publication is a worthy showcase of Haverfordian artistic talents. However, as a free student arts publication localized to the Haverford campus and without much history, it lacks encyclopedic notability (compare e.g.The Mays) - and Wikipedia is not a campus activities directory. Also, the creator of the article[1] is the web manager for the Review[2]. Bwithh 01:55, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Insufficiently notable publication, and no "credible, third-party sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy" as required by WP:V. --Satori Son 03:57, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Nice for them but not notable. Nigel ^(Talk) 12:41, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Merge on reading the discussion that follows --Nigel ^(Talk) 15:30, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nominator. JIP | Talk 15:47, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to Haverford College. Only assertion of notability is "The magazine is the only of its kind at Haverford". Not good enough. JASpencer 16:37, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Keep Anonymous User, - This article serves a purpose. It is interesting to users who do not attend Haverford College. While not more than slightly notable, many articles are about subjects that are not noteworthy.

• Note While I don't necessarily agree that the Review is not a notable publication, and did in fact recently learn that it's been going on for a lot longer than I thought (I will add this and further information to the page if and when the AfD is removed), if the overall feeling is that this article serves no purpose, I wouldn't be against its deletion, or someone else's merging it with the Haverford College article. On the other hand, having looked over the terms for deletion... it's not clear, in my opinion, and moreover I think this argument would be better-served on an article that serves considerably less purpose than this one.
