The individual state groups of this project are not independently notable--just aa with all other similar organizations DGG ( talk ) 20:16, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

• Strong Keep. This is a very early stub for an entity that is notable -- it just needs to be built up and developed. Also, a quick search of Wikipedia shows that there are similar pages for different Innocence Project Network member organizations. I hope that by linking these it doesn't lead to their demise as well in this process - so please be kind. I would be happy to work on this page but wanted to let the University of Nebraska-Lincoln new editor continue their initial work. As far as nurturing valid articles, see Illinois Innocence Project for what this article could and should develop into. -- Erika aka BrillLyle (talk) 22:59, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

• Delete perhaps and Draft if needed as there's certainly noticeable links and information here but solid independent notability is still questionable. SwisterTwister talk 05:36, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
• Redirect to Innocence Project. This probably should be done for other similar articles about state affiliates of this organization. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a strong argument. --Randykitty (talk) 10:48, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
• Keep. Nice amount of source coverage, as seen at Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL. — Cirt (talk) 17:09, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

• Keep. I think the second point of WP:SSEFAR applies here. Even though the "similar articles exist" argument isn't enough to warrant keeping an article, this covers a finite amount (Innocence Project subdivisions) and we have other articles on those which have not been deleted. The fact that NIP were involved in the first DNA exhonoration case in Nebraska also adds notability in my opinion. If there's going to be a merge it should be with all the subdivisions, but I think I'd prefer subpages, especially since there's room for expansion.

• Keep per WP:NONPROFIT, which states that a not-for-profit organization's achievements should be assessed when determining when the organization passes WP:NORG's notability guidelines. The sources cited in this article substantiate the fact that this group's work has had a significant impact, and we should therefore keep this article. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 23:01, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

• Keep. considering WP:NONPROFIT in evaluation. VanEman (talk) 02:44, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
• Keep - passes WP:GNG DaltonCastle (talk) 02:03, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

indeed, do consider WP:NONPROFIT, especially the section ofn branches of a nlarrger association, ) --although I think it's technically independent its branch of a larger movement. Also see the criteria "The scope of their activities is national or international in scale." and that the local references do not meet the qualifiers of " Nationally well-known local organizations:" DGG ( talk ) 22:40, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
