The previous AFD was closed as "no consensus" by Ron Ritzman. You can see my discussion with him about it here.

The issues from the previous AFD still apply. This is a Round 1 (of 4, with 4 being the National Competition) competition for the United States Academic Decathlon. No other state or regional competition has its own article, as they simply are not independently notable of the main competition. There simply are not enough reliable, independent secondary sources to warrant having this article in my opinion, no matter how large of a competition this is compared to others in the surrounding area.

• Delete, and I should have said that in the first discussion-- then again, I should have said "donor" instead of "donator" in the first discussion. I think it deserves prominent mention in Erie City School District. Although it seems to be a great program, it has attracted no attention outside of Erie, PA, regardless of the amount of scholarships it generates. This seems to be unique to Erie, and it's unfortunate that it hasn't been a model that's been emulated by other school districts. Still, Wikipedia is not public relations for the school district.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

• Delete same as last time: Delete per WP:ORG. What little notability it has is both local and by association only. That was also a really poor close on Ron Ritzman's part, by the way. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:34, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A really poor close? It was up for a month, with three relistings and only three !votes, 2 delete and 1 keep. I would have closed it as a no consensus as well. Mandsford 23:10, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - per nom. RossRSmith (talk) 23:45, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
