[edit] DIT.YPDS

DIT.YPDS (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Generally, we don't have separate articles for local branches of political parties and youth wings. This type of presentation is better adapted for facebook or myspace. Soman (talk) 20:00, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

It's a very prominant branch with lots of factual information contained in the information and it is no different to the following page from a rival local branch of a youth party: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_University_of_Ireland%2C_Galway_YFG —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.70.34.159 (talk • contribs) so, assumably, if this article is to be deleted, which I would certainly protest because I think it is relevant, then surely the above link would also be deleted because it is the exact same category and idea, just with defferent names. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dart22 (talk • contribs)

Comment: My take on this is that, with the exception of parties with a clear federal character (like Category:Democratic_Party_(United_States)_by_state), there should not be articles on individual local/district organization of a party or youth league. If there is something of extraordinary notability, that should be included in the article on the main organization itself. --Soman (talk) 20:37, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

You're entitled to your opinion. Nonetheless, whilst this article may be of no interest to you, it may be of interest to people interested in Irish politics/youth politics. And surely like will be treated with like, so if this page is is deleted with reason then surely the page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_University_of_Ireland%2C_Galway_YFG will also be delted? - Just to make sure wikipedia is fair and balanced in its directives on Irish politics/youth politics. However the above similar page has existed for quite some time without protest and I'm sure there are other pages just like it around, so I don't see don't what the problem is with making a similar page for a different party. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dart22 (talk • contribs)

• Comment See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. --Dhartung | Talk 21:17, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Comment Actually, very little other stuff exists in this case, apart from these two articles. In general, and in practice, local branches orcumanns of Irish political parties, either general or youth branches, don't have individual articles. This AFD or this one and others like it spring to mind.FlowerpotmaN·(t) 00:13, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per WP:ORG and WP:LOCAL. It is expected that political parties will have local branches; we can't possibly document all of them. --Dhartung | Talk 21:12, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
