Sorry to relitigate this, but this was a two-participant AfD where the only Keep vote was from the article's creator. This article doesn't show

persistent coverage or significant impact, without which it's just another protest (albeit one that made the news). It's a one-off story—it's a really, really interesting and inspiring one! But without reliable, secondary sources explicitly showing real-world impact or lasting coverage, this doesn't meet inclusion criteria. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 18:16, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply

Edit: I should remind all of those looking to get involved that you're not just looking for

WP:PERSISTENCE: a burst or spike of news reports does not automatically make an incident notable. Events that are only covered in sources published during or immediately after an event, without further analysis or discussion, are likely not suitable for an encyclopedia article. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 09:44, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply

The first strike wasn't just covered all over the news, including on Washington Post, but it had created the impact of keeping the most significant voting bill since 1965 alive. The Senate will start to debate the bill on Tuesday 1/18. The youth has started their second hunger strike to call attention to the bill. The number of strikers has grown from 20 to 40. Whether the bill will eventually pass or not, these strikes had made a significant impact.

Please check out the coverage of these events on the reference list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.56.239.179 (talk) 04:17, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: I know no one like endless relists, but since the first AfD closed as no consensus, and the two recent comments are from the last 24 hours, let's give it one more week.

  • Delete this is a promotional article about an ongoing promotional effort by college students. If it becomes genuinely newsworthy, it can be re-created. The references are mostly about national news headlines unrelated to the group. It is also likely that somebody working with the group is improperly contributing to this article.
