The organisation does not appear to have ever been subject to significant coverage. Fail to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for companies and organisations. Basically, no sources. The only source in the article says nothing about the organisation (original research). Renat 19:58, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Our coverage of Kazakhstan is so poor we should be very slow to remove any of it. Rathfelder (talk) 23:11, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking about answering you by pointing to WP:EVERYTHING, but WP:EVERYTHING applies when the subject exists/existed and in this case I am not sure this organisation ever existed (probably, it existed at some point (then I wonder what's the name of the organisation in Russian or Kazakh?), but that does not mean anything in this discussion). Just because someone thinks that "our coverage of Kazakhstan is so poor", doesn't mean every single non-notable, with no significant coverage article related to Kazakhstan should be kept.--Renat 23:45, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have added this discussion to Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Scouting. That might encourage members of the Scouting Project to search for sources. However, I can not find any and so, for now at least, it is delete. --Bduke (talk) 01:57, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The title is a guess at the official name of a possibly existant body. Not enough coverage of the body that WAGGGS is "in contact" with. It could be old Mrs. Jones and her 2 daughters, or it could be with the Organization of the Scout Movement of Kazakhstan. Also, remove reference to the name of the organization stated in Scouting and Guiding in Kazakhstan. No source given for the emlem image. A mention of WAGGGS contact somewhere in Scouting and Guiding in Kazakhstan would be enough, as it is notable that Kazakhstan does not have a critical mass of Girl Guides/Girl Scouts.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete we lack clear evidence as to when this organization existed, and lack even total evidence that the organization ever existed. This is not enough to justify an article on a thing. We can not wave the need sourcing requirement to justify articles on things in countries on which we have little coverage. Down that path lies the madness of creaing down right fiction on some countries. That is not the way to get better coverage of things.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:27, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
