[edit] Ssaw

No real claim to notability in the article. Only 278 Google hits for "School Students Against War". dbenbenn | talk 01:04, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Just makes it, I think. Factual. Acknowledged by reputable(?) organisations with the same agenda. NB 278 mostly different Google hits, not just Wiki clones. But may justify deletion in future if they don't keep up current levels of activity. Suggest keep and review again in 6 months. --Alicejenny 08:16, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Weak keep per above. Could use a bit of cleanup. -Haon 02:30, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
• Send to cleanup: It isn't a case of wikification that's needed, but a copyvio check and then NPOV. It reads like it was written by a Young Person, and the graphic very much looks like an attempted replication of the group's pages. Actually, I'm changing my mind. The group is fairly small, with fairly small press. Usually an effective organizing and protesting group will generate quite a few mentions in the mainstream press. I wish them luck and wish them well, but they don't seem to be discussed enough by others nor to have had a sufficient effect on the world to be encyclopedic. Delete.

• Delete as I can't find any evidence this group had any effect on the press nor did I find evidence of the protest mentioned inthe article. Consider this a keep if third-party verifiable sources from reputable news sources are added. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:06, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete but I'd change that if it could be shown that there are a lot of members. As-is they seem very cagey about that. Just zis Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] :: AfD? 13:56, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete The group's leader is known for her eccentric choice of boyfriends? If that's a claim to fame then this just isn't encyclopedic. Durova 14:40, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
• Keep any verifiable content in this page. Trollderella 17:20, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
• Delete schoolcruft.  Grue  17:52, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
• Edit Offensive to Alys, and incorrect as she is not our 'leader as it says, but our elected convenor as any form of leader would be hierarchical. Also not best written to the main achievements of the SSAW, and the group's past and current campaigns.86.140.31.251 17:37, 14 November 2005 (UTC)me
