Upsilon nu alpha

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

US intercollegiate fraternity being promoted by someone with an obvious COI. No evidence offered that it exists let alone that it might be notable. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 07:56, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No evidence of importance and notability. No references to support. Ghits found only Facebook page and group's offical page. Article was PROD, but later removed by the author without any justification or modification. Obvious Conflict of Interest WP:COI. Jolenine (Talk - My Contribs) 19:08, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Uncertain I am usually very skeptical about articles on fraternities with very few chapters. this has 11, and would be worth a fuller search for references. ` DGG ( talk ) 22:50, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Does not appear to have significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. --Odie5533 (talk) 23:30, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No sources have been provided at all, not even a link to the fraternity's own web site. I found no relevant Google hits outside Wikipedia and mirror sites, nor any relevant Google News hits. I can't even figure out which colleges this fraternity has chapters at, because the chapters are identified only by city and not by the college they are supposed to be associated with. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:14, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The article has been updated to indicate that the fraternity has chapters at Cape Fear Community College, Winston-Salem State University, Savannah Technical College, and Darton College. However, I went to the web sites for each of these colleges and didn't find Upsilon Nu Alpha on the list of registered organizations there. See [1], [2], [3], and [4]. So I would need some more evidence to establish even the existence of this fraternity. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 19:22, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
