Non-notable usenet group, has been in CAT:NN. Was kept, fairly easily, at a discussion back in 2005, but all of the keep !votes in that were consisted solely of WP:ITSNOTABLE with no evidence of backing it up. The main claim to notability from the previous AFD was that it was mentioned in the Jargon File, but that doesn't seem to be the stuff of notability. I'm not sure what this is but it doesn't look particularly reliable. This mentions the group in one sentence. Very brief coverage here This is a republishment of the previous piece. Just a list entry here, with no explanation. I suspect the brief definitions posted in the sources above are copied from the Jargon File, which would make sense. This paper only mentions the group as a works cited (yikes!). It gets a paragraph in this thesis, but I can't tell what type of thesis it is, as many theses are excluded as RS per WP:SCHOLARSHIP. Gets only half a sentence of coverage here. This is a master's dissertation, generally considered to be below WP:SCHOLARSHIP. Not finding anything particularly useful on the internet archive. Pretty much, this doesn't seem to be a notable usenet group, and since we don't have a listing of usenet groups anywhere, I don't see a good place to redirect to.
