The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant English-language coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. Prodded recently by User:Kj_cheetham and deprodded by User:David Eppstein with "This is a major subunit of IEEE". Unfortunately, it still doesn't seem notable. I expect this AfD may end up with a merge/redirect suggestion per the recent Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Technical Committee on VLSI, and frankly, I don't see what is there to merge, but let's discuss, I guess.

  • Weak delete I recognise it's important within the IEEE, but I'm still not convinced of it's notability to the wider world. There is a single independant source now at least, hence only a weak vote from me now, and I might be convinced to change my mind. -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:08, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. I just can't find sources that reflect its importance beyond the one I added when I deprodded it. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:45, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Merge the first sentence from the lead into IEEE_Circuits_and_Systems_Society. The independent source was a good find by David, but I was unable to find further significant RS that would satisfy WP:GNG. The source does establish some verifiable material, however, and I think a mention in the CAS article is reasonable and of due weight. Pragmatically, adding the RS found will also benefit the CAS article as well. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 20:25, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
