[edit] Directors Forum

Directors Forum (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

(Categorizing under CORP since the article covers the program and its host, feel free to change). PROD removed by Halfmast who explained his/her reason here and here so I'm bringing it to AfD. The Partnership *might* be notable if there are sources beyond Google which has no RS coverage and trivial ghits. If coverage is found, it needs its own article, not a subsection of the conference. For the forum I find no RS coverage and 20 ghits are primarily directory listings and no evidence of notability, probably due to the fact that it's less than two years old. The museums it works with may well be notable, but there's no evidence the partnership or its conference are. TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 11:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete, there are scores of these limited-domain professional groups in the humanities, and few of them really achieve anything approaching WP:ORG. They provide a service, but they aren't public-facing, and there isn't even much that being on Wikipedia does for them that I can see. Anybody in their conference "market" already gets a pile of brochures months in advance ... anyway. --Dhartung | Talk 13:41, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete per nom. Despite my vote, I was the one who previously removed the PROD as I feel a consensus is needed as this is not an absolutely clear cut case. Halfmast (talk) 09:02, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
