  • Keep -- (I should note that this article was created by students at my institution, and further edited by me, a librarian at that institution. We hold the papers of this organization. So just to clarify, I don't work for CRJ, rather a library that holds CRJ's archive.) CRJ and its scholarship is mentioned in plenty of sources that are widely distributed, like national press books or national magazines. I will admit we haven't had time to get those sources into the article itself, but looking at Community Resources for Justice in Google Books, you can see citations to CRJ's work in many nationally published scholarly books. Checking Google Scholar, Community Resources for Justice research is used in articles in national journals as well as in publications in several different states. If you search Goole Scholar for some of CRJ's earlier manifestations (this org is over 130 years old and has changed names many times), like the New England Society for the Suppression of Vice, you'll see NESSV mentioned in multiple histories of criminal justice and the New England area. It seem like the national scholarly literature definitely has evidence of CRJ's impact, as well as evidence of the impact of its earlier manifestations, which I think bolsters the notability case. I realize we still have quite a bit of work in getting these citations into the article! AmandaRR123 (talk) 18:20, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment -- from a Wikipedia perspective, it's important to get those sources into this article. The best way to keep this article is to add those sources during this AfD. An admin might close this AfD as early as 12 April 2014. That admin might keep the AfD open for another five days, if some but not enough Wikipedia quality sources are added.

  • Keep. Notability established; sources need to exist but do not need to be in article already, for notability to be clear. --doncram 11:55, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
