Speedy Delete. Blatant advertising; probable COI. Houseboater (talk) 23:38, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

I am very sorry. Please change to Delete. Houseboater (talk) 00:19, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Weak keep as this does have some claim to notability per WP:ORG. The Wisconsin group was founded in 1960 and has no apparent connection to some other longstanding Irish-American groups on the East Coast. Many of the other GHITS are for one-off gentlemen's clubs (in the British sense) or political organizations. This group is primarily limited to Wisconsin but does have a bit written about it in reliable sources in Google Books and Google News Archive in addition to sources in the article. Nominator has provided limited, if any, rationale for deletion. --Dhartung | Talk 00:40, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
