Delete - I discovered this while organizing stubs. Are college organizations notable? I know quite a few universities have a capella groups and other performance organizations, in fact my sister is president of an a capella group at her university. The group has released a few CD's just as this one has, but is this encyclopedic? What about other collegiate performing organizations? See the category for the University of Pennsylvania for more organizations. Ganymead 23:21, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, just under the bar of notability, possible college vanity. Megan1967 00:46, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. According to their website, they appear to have released 15 CDs, toured extensively and received a number of awards.[1] As for the more general issue, I don't think there is any point in trying to establish a general principle or precedent on the notability of "college organizations". Some are notable, some are not. Sports are overrepresented at the moment. Not only does every unexciting American college football team seem to get an article, and quite a few football team coaches, but even the odd mascot and local mascotcruft that should probably be merged somewhere. This musical group, on the other hand, seems worthy of inclusion. And your sister's group too, perhaps. / u p p l a n d 12:19, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep based on Uppland's comments, though I haven't verified that they meet any of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/Notability and Music Guidelines. Tuf-Kat 02:40, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)
Delete - After I've rewritten an article which experienced copyvio in the past, and copied it into Nelli Kim (removing copyvio notice from there), Nelli Kim/Temp should be deleted.Cmapm 00:04, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- This isn't how WP:CP works—Nelli Kim should be deleted and /Temp moved over it. (This also isn't how VfD works; you've pasted this into the bottom of Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Penn Counterparts.) —Korath (Talk) 00:18, Feb 19, 2005 (UTC)
- Second mistake was realised by myself before your answer (see Talk page). As concerns first mistake, what should I do now? It's a pity, that nothing was said on it in copyvio notice. I waited for 10 days after writing a stub and placing notice on this on the Talk page (i.e. more than a week, as stated in copyvio), but nobody of admins removed copyvio :(( So, I tried myself Cmapm 00:26, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
