[edit] Chabad on Campus Foundation

Utterly non-notable organisation, article is a vanity project for the group, and is not referenced in any way. Páll (Die pienk olifant) 05:33, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep, Google found 172,000 hits, it is Chabad-Lubavitch's student wing. Gadig 06:39, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. By 172,000 you apparently mean just 4, of which three are Wikipedia listings and one is its own website. Non-notable. Melchoir 07:36, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
Comment: My mistake, I looked for Chabad on Campus and not Foundation. Gadig 07:44, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
Okay, sorry, but even then it's just 266. I'll leave it to others to determine if one of those is a reliable, independent source providing nontrivial coverage. Melchoir 08:07, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Just because the article isn't yet extensive, I am sure there is much that could be written upon the impact of Chabad upon Jewish students on campus. Its existence on 85 campuses in the USA likely means that it has an impact on an enormous number of people. In Australia where Chabad's influence is not direct, the Jewish population is small, and students commute rather than board at universities, Chabad's influence on campus is even significant. The fact that the organisation is not always known by its full name as a Foundation does not mean that it is a non-notable entity. jnothman talk 10:41, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
