Thanks for your email regarding the National Association of Patent Practitioners and its notability. I have removed the tag questioning the notability, and I have tried to improve the article so that it complies with Wikipedia guidelines. So far, the reference in IEEE Spectrum is a good one to assert notability (see Notability), even though it may appear as a reference to a rather specific issue in a particular context.

However, the association may still be considered insufficiently notable by other contributors. A contributor who believes the association is not notable enough may start a "Article for deletion" debate. In order to assert the notability of the association, you may help by providing references to mainstream reliable sources, such newspapers, scientific or law journals, etc mentioning (and preferably elaborating on) the association.

In addition, please also note that you should exercise great caution about any conflict of interest. Please read carefully Conflict of interest before further editing the article. The article is now on my watchlist and I would be happy to help improving it, if you drop a note on the talk page of the article.

I hope this helps. Cheers. --Edcolins 16:45, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
