Comment I've been working on other articles so haven't addressed this one as yet. My hunch is that it should be kept as it does assert notability; Many members of GALA also have articles but this is one of the very few and first youth groups. Banjeboi23:26, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Gay and Lesbian Association of Choruses. Does not assert notability - membership of GALA does not confer notability, the other choirs with articles are notable AND are GALA members, not BECAUSE OF. Thousands of youth choirs exist, this one has to have proven notability through sources. It doesn't so should be deleted until they do something notable.Yobmod (talk) 08:59, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, —Sean Whitton / 13:04, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep. Merging seems to be the same as deleting as there really is little to no room in the parent article to explore individual choirs. I believe there is hundreds of organizations in GALA if not over a 1000. In any case this group, the world's first in many respects, was the only youth group to be featured in a full-length documentary along with three "grown-ups" choirs and that documentary is making the worldwide LGBT film fest circuit. In addition it has been shown on 300 PBS stations around the United States. I think I've filled in enough for now to demonstrate notability. Banjeboi14:46, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
