very local society of no demonstrable importance 'DGG (at NYPL)' (talk) 20:03, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect. There needs to be a List of natural history societies, to list this and others with articles, e.g. Birmingham Natural History Society, and others without articles (many, per Google). Then redirect to that list. The current article has nothing/little more than is needed for an entry in a list. There exists List of historical societies, but I think natural history societies are different. If someone would start the list-article, i would help develop it. --doncram 21:33, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• delete We're WP:NOTDIR and I see no evidence that this article has any scope to ever be anything more than that. Some local societies, such as BRLSI, are far more than this and justify their articles, but I'm not seeing it for Chorley. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:25, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
