I'm honestly not sure exactly what SNG this topic would be judged on, but a WP:BEFORE search brings up very little that's not published by Marquette University. I'm pretty sure anything published by Marquette would be considered a primary source not demonstrating notability for this archive. Most of the rest of the mentions I can find of this archive are either references to people being in charge of this archive on LinkedIn and such resumes and a few links from other university .edu domains giving a simple link to the online version of this archive in a list of "educational resources". I'm not seeing a WP:GNG pass here. Hog Farm (talk) 23:40, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Merge to Marquette University.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:31, 13 May 2020 (UTC)- @Johnpacklambert and Mccapra: - Given that the article currently has no sources, just an external link, I'd be hesitant to merge unsourced content. Hog Farm (talk) 15:35, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
