 * Hi Breamcanally; if you can add sources, per WP:RELIABLE, and rewrite the article without copyright problems, this could be worth another try. The newspaper articles that link from the center's website would be very useful as sources. A further complication, though, could be your username and implied identity--the same as one of the center's founders, which gets into the WP:COI business.... JNW (talk) 23:48, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
