Article has no references, with few non-primary sources when googling this topic (one of which being this article), therefore does not meet WP:NOTABILITY with the article providing little value even ignoring this. SoThisIsPeter (talk) 15:27, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When searching, keep in mind that a lot of the results are for a completely different Scottish Constitutional Constitution set up by the Scottish Parliament, which is far more notable than this one. This potential confusion is another reason why this article should be deleted. SoThisIsPeter (talk) 15:29, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Afd is not cleanup and the fact it has no reference is not a reason to sent it to Afd. It is established structural legal body in Scotland and is completely notable. scope_creep^Talk 15:57, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  This article does not refer to the legal body, just a non-notable think tank! SoThisIsPeter (talk) 16:07, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Think-tanks tend to be notable and Afd is not cleanup. scope_creep^Talk 16:14, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But this one isn't notable? The problem with the lack of any references here is that there are no reliable, independent sources to be found to demonstrate notability, and the content is not otherwise useful. It is not an article that can be cleaned up without using primary sources. SoThisIsPeter (talk) 16:34, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Right-oh. I will take a look and see if ferret out WP:THREE references for it. So far its been assumptions and actual fact-facting has been missing. It could be dross. It is on my watchlist now. scope_creep^Talk 17:45, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - the generic name does make searching difficult, but I was unable to find any independent in-depth coverage in Scottish or UK sources. A couple of passing mentions, but nothing more. —Ganesha811 (talk) 16:28, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
