Delete per the nominator's reasoning. --Pstanton (talk) 23:58, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Keep Though it needs a major re-write and addition of more content/coverage, the article is ~~clearly~~ (debatably) not advertising (there's nothing that really "promotes" it, it's just rather one-sided) and the subject and its activities meet web content notability criteria by being covered by multiple independent, non-trivial published works as seen here, here, here and here.

Delete per nom. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 00:15, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Weak keep. I understand the article is spammy and needs a change in tone, but I did a Google search and checked the references when I declined the speedy deletion, and I believe notability is solid. - Dan Dank55 (push to talk) 01:10, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Keep - the site is notable with coverage in multiple reliable soruces. The spamminess is an editting issue and not overt enough for deletion. -- Whpq (talk) 12:56, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Delete Not notable enough. GT5162 ^{(我的对话页)} 16:36, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Comment Is there any reason to delete other than WP:JNN? Khalfani Khaldun 18:39, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Reply - The last couple of delete opinions don't explain how the sources you've identified fail to establish notability. I would expect the closing administrator to take that into consideration when determining the outcome as this is a discussion and not a vote. Saying "not notable enough" in the face presented sources isn't really a discussion. -- Whpq (talk) 18:27, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Keep The article needs a rewrite but the sources establishing notability can't be ignored. --J^mundo 04:03, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
Keep as notable in the usual way, but clean it up, please. The references have several credible cites, including newspapers and nationally known websites. Bearian (talk) 00:41, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
