Campaign to Save Roan Plateau
Fails the notability criteria of a non-commercial organization as set out in
WP:CLUB. A non-commercial organization, according to the policy, must pass two criteria - it must be of national or international scale and information must be verifiable with independent third-party sources. This group fails the first part of that test, given its local focus. WP:CLUB allows for the notability of local groups if "there is verifiable information from reliable independent sources outside the organization's local area..." In this case, the local organization has very few (14) archived G-news articles in the last 10 years - all from local news sources. Finally the criteria allows for consideration of "longevity, size of membership, or major achievements, or other factors specific to the organization" in determining notability. Although this makes the criteria much less rigid, I can't find anything that would help support an argument on this last limb of the notability criteria.

- Merge into Roan Plateau. I don't think it's sufficiently notable for an article of its own, but if it forms a local opposition to gas drilling on the plateau, and we can find citations, I think that's notable enough for inclusion in the Roan Plateau article - but it does need citations in order to be merged. -- Boing! said Zebedee 08:06, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge There are reliable but local secondary sources, e.g., the few news articles. --Joe Decker (talk) 23:18, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
