[edit] UT Society

This looks like a lot of nonsense to me; however, it could indeed be somewhat notable. I don't know. I'd vote Strong Delete. —Preceding unsigned comment added by James084 (talk • contribs) 13:09, 4 January 2006

  • No, this is actually a real secret society at the school. The school name has been changed, but it is indeed a real society. We want to have a wikipedia entry to immortalize our society in wikipedia. Please don't consider deletion; this is completely valid; it just needs some cleaning up. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Omgwikiwiki (talk • contribs) 13:11, 4 January 2006

  • Delete. Unverifiable: "The school name has been changed, but it is indeed a real society." ManoaChild 21:31, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
  • The name has been chnaged back to the actual school name, the name we had earlier was exchanging the first two letters, not exactly "changing the name" if you'd like to see the schools wiki, University School
    • The quoted statement was my first concern, and you have addressed that, but I still see verifiability as a serious issue. Beyond that, there is also the issue of notability. ManoaChild 03:19, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Real Society, Real School

  • If it's real, why should it be deleted?
  • Are you seriously saying that, because it's not that big of a deal, it should be deleted? Come on, what happened to the Wikipedia that's full of details? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.252.94.206 (talk • contribs) 15:10, 4 January 2006

[edit] How About a Change of Title?

  • Would that work? As in, make the title "The USUT Society" or "The University School Unreal Tournament Society." Would that work? ---- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.252.94.206 (talk • contribs) 18:14, 4 January 2006
    • I support that idea, I mean, if it's a real society with actual members linked to a school that's already existant on wiki, University School then why not keep it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.160.223.23 (talk • contribs) 19:49, 4 January 2006
  • Delete as non-notable online gaming group, non-notable student group. —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-05 04:19Z
  • User:Omgwikiwiki tells us above that this is a "real secret society" at a school. That tells us straight off that this subject is too secret for Wikipedia. However, I checked anyway, and there are indeed no sources to be found for this society. (The article, as usual, cites no sources.) The article is a novel, previously unpublished, description, history, and membership roster for a school society. It is thus primary source material and original research, which is forbidden here. The place for this sort of thing is the school's, or the society's, own web site, not Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a free wiki host for club home pages. Delete. Uncle G 16:00, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
