South Australian Pipe Band Association: Struggling to find significant coverage in reliable secondary sources.  Fails WP:NORG .  AusLondonder ( talk ) 12:52, 25 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians , Music , Organizations ,  and Australia .  AusLondonder ( talk ) 12:52, 25 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep admittedly can be a struggle - one of the weirdest afd coincidences - the original editor is still editing (!), it is clear that the the facilities of trove were not available when this article was created.  The claims for the organisation in all probability are verifiable from a careful check of material in trove...  JarrahTree 13:13, 25 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] @ JarrahTree : Are you saying sources are available on Trove or potentially available?  AusLondonder ( talk ) 13:24, 25 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] I have had a closer look at the Victorian Pipe Band article - and unless User:Fifieldt turns up with some semblance of where either the South Australian or Victorian article claims can be verified from (or not) - I am not as familiar with SA (being a WA person), but it is not something that I would bank on.   For some bizarre reason Trove seemed to be offline when I was trying to follow up, I do not promise anything.  Apologies for that.  JarrahTree 13:46, 25 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The South Australian Pipe Band Association was wound up and replaced with Pipe Bands SA https://www.pipebandsaustralia.com.au/south-australia/ .  Its member the Caledonian Society may be notable as the oldest pipe band in the southern hemisphere https://bagpipe.news/2019/11/25/brett-tidswell-piping-in-australia/ fifieldt ( talk ) 04:51, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] there are indeed some mentions in trove: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/275407559? searchTerm=%22South%20Australian%20Pipe%20Band%20Association%22 fifieldt ( talk ) 04:55, 27 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

The organization has shut down, but there is a new group which could be mentioned in the same article.  There are several Google hits for "Pipe Bands South Australia", which as Fifieldt points out, is the replacement for the South Australian Pipe Band Association, https://www.pipebandsaustralia.com.au/south-australia/ Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 06:04, 18 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
