The result was delete. The "keep" opinion does not address the article's lack of reliable sources covering the subject. Sandstein 06:08, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Having articles for individual national groups of Mensa International is a Bad Idea, as noted in Talk:American Mensa, which was deleted and redirected a few years ago (note that Mensa Switzerland is also a redirect) ... this article also lacks WP:RS to satisfy the WP:INC criteria. — The Bipolar Anon-IP Gnome (talk) 20:47, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Pretty much all the article says is that Mensa has a chapter in Belgium. A list of national chapters' websites on external links in Mensa should do the job. I'm sure members of this organization are smart enough to understand that and will not be offended. :-) Wolfview (talk) 21:28, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:ORG and general precedent against articles on local branches of large clubs (in this case, there's 50 of them). A redirect to the main article would be okay, if only to discourage re-creation. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 23:14, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Conserve Can you image the size of the article Mensa if it describes national activities? We need too this kind of article to link subjects like IQ, gifted people at national level. I observe too that this kind of subject is not very well appreciate, extremely weird regarding articles on subjects like supporter clubs ... --Hcrepin (talk) 20:13, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
