User:Meelar/Test of Political Significance

Recently, a question has arisen over how to evaluate the encyclopedicness of article about political interest groups. Under this proposed policy, articles on interest groups would be kept if they meet one of the following criteria:
 * They had attracted major media attention (e.g. Swift Boat Veterans for Truth)
 * They are frequently quoted by media on topics of concern to them (e.g. Family Research Council and Human Rights Campaign on issues dealing with homosexuality)
 * They have over 20,000 members (this number to vary based on how the group defines membership)
 * They donated a significant amount of money in the past election cycle (US$5 million would include all the larger PACs and 527s)
 * They are attached to some significant figure, and are notable in their own right (these can often be merged into the article on the figure him/her self)
