[edit] Canadian Girls in Training

Canadian Girls in Training (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Fails WP:NOTABILITY. The only link is it's own site. There are many church groups out there, this is not a notable one. This has also been orphaned for almost 2 years. Undeath (talk) 13:09, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete per nomination. There is no indication as to its magnitude or wide-spread acceptance or notability. Racepacket (talk) 18:22, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete Per nom. — EliasAlucard (Discussion · contribs) 07:54, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
• Keep While the article as it stands doesn't support notability, I believe that it is notable and it could be improved to meet standards. A quick Google search provides additional information that could be included and referenced, including from the Canadian Encyclopedia and at least a couple of books. Content could also be added to the articles on the supporting organizations - the United and Presbyterian churches in Canada - that would eliminate its orphan status. I'll try to take a crack at improving it. Mlaffs (talk) 21:28, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Fails to assert notability. Believing that it is notable and being notable are two different things. Vegaswikian (talk) 01:09, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps I wasn't being clear; I should have said that by improving the article, it would demonstrate notability. I've done some work on it, including:

• adding more information
• wikifying it, so that it is not a dead-end
• adding a references section, including a link to the topic's article in The Canadian Encyclopedia
• linking to the article from other pages that already referenced the subject, so that it is no longer orphaned
• adding further external links

Hoping that enough has been done to take another look. Mlaffs (talk) 17:37, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

• Keep More than adequately sourced. I beleive that sourcing, rather than notability, was the real issue, and that has been rectified. Played a significant role in Canadian society in its time. Agent 86 (talk) 07:22, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
• Keep as it contains plenty of sources; they just need to be made into inline citations. Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 03:46, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
