Doesn't meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG. Local branch of a not necessarily notable organisation. Boleyn (talk) 06:43, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Not sure how much WP:BEFORE was done here. Sorry, but I was probably a bit obtuse at Talk:Council on the Ageing. Another simple example, if you google ("Council on the Ageing" .gov.au), then all of the .gov.au site hits are secondary, ie, the content has had review by people not associated with the subject here. Yes, many of the hits in the gross search result are trivial, but there are a solid number that are not. There is also the TROVE search I gave at "Talk:Council on the Ageing". Again the bulk of that search result is not IRS about the subject, but there are a solid number that are. I am of the view that each state branch (note state, not a "local"), probably does not warrant its own article, but as a multibranch national entity it seems to me to be quite notable.

Keep though the naming should be Council of the Ageing(NSW) or something similar as there is a national level body, and COTA bodies in every state. On Trove I found a significant volume sources including some that indicate the COTA is a publisher, research organisation, registered charity, and a primary source of knowledge. It meets WP:GNG the organisation and its work is well documented. Gnan garra 12:27, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - organisations in an state of australia such as these are long standing and notable... JarrahTree 12:44, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
