Erasmus debating society

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Another student debating club with 120 members that is not notable and has not received significant coverage from independent reliable sources. Fails WP:GNG, WP:CLUB and as it is unreferenced WP:V. Codf1977 (talk) 07:03, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable, no significant coverage found, unsourced except for its own website. It is the oldest debating society in the Netherlands, but that still makes it only 20 years old. BTW while looking into this article I took at look at its category, Category:Student debating societies, and probably half the clubs listed there should be candidates for deletion under Wikipedia standards. --MelanieN (talk) 15:35, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and fully support cutting a swathe through these non-notable undergraduate debating clubs (note Codf1977 has been doing a fine job of that).--Mkativerata (talk) 06:39, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
