Comment. This camp was the subject of a feature in Time magazine in 2007. [1][2]. The camp has also been noted for its environmental efforts including a program to preserve and reintroduce rare pitcher plants. [3][4][5][6] On a more unpleasant note: [7][8] (and many other news reports about this case). --Arxiloxos (talk) 15:21, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- The Time article is behind a paywall, but appears (according to your second link) to be "an article about boys growing up in today's society", not about the camp. The pitcher plant and child molestation stories fail WP:NOTINHEROTED. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:37, 6 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Nominator appears to be going through a list or category of summer camps and nominating them all for deletion, indiscriminately. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Surprise Lake Camp for example, where a summer camp that really obviously meets wp:GNG is also nominated for deletion. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Camp Kawanhee for Boys, where I also voted Keep. I assume wp:BEFORE standard is not met here, either, for this Falling Creek Camp. I voted Keep also for similar reason at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Camp Ondessonk, too. --doncram 20:32, 9 May 2014 (UTC) --doncram 21:59, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- I trust that whoever closes this AfD will take into account your partisan canvassing. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:50, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - Exactly as i posted in response to Pigsonthewing's identical accusation at another of these AFDs: Absolute nonsense. Please do try to explain where there was any "canvassing" at all. In several AFDs on summer camps that Pigsonthewings has nominated, i have pointed to other ongoing AFDs about summer camps, pointing out some relatedness between the AFDs. This seems appropriate, there is no canvassing to user pages or to any Wikiprojects. Nonsense. --do ncr am 00:14, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
