This is simply to educate people about what's happening in a neighborhood in Washington, DC - the name for this neighborhood as been acknowledged by the Government of the District of Columbia - DC Government Reference

as well as in the commmerical real estate company CoStar - CoStar reference in addition to the BID that has been created for the neighborhood and the local blog that also talks about the neighborhood. Finally if you still don't think this should exist then you should also delete pages such as this that are currently on Wikipedia - [NoMa link] - there is currently information about a neighborhood in DC and a brief history of the neighborhood - what is wrong with that?

Furthermore - the entry does not promote a particular person or product, it simply gives a description of a neighborhood and of a non-profit organization that manages development and attempts to educate the public about what is happening in that neighborhood - isn't that what encyclopedias do? Educate people? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Crbid (talk • contribs) 21:32, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you that this article should be be deleted, but it does need to be reworked to follow Wikipedia standards. I am going to delete the tags as well as the spammy links Dbiel ^(Talk) 12:09, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
