9/11 Citizens Watch
This is a procedural relisting, the page was restored after a contested WP:PROD deletion. Original prod reason was "Non-notable fringe site, fails WP:WEB". Delete unless independent sources show that the site meets WP:WEB. Kusma (討論) 12:44, 20 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment' here is notability: "The 9-11 Family Steering Committee and 9-11 Citizens Watch demand the resignation of Philip Zelikow, executive director of the 9/11 Commission." - New York Times, 3/20/2004 mirror --Striver 13:22, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I just added a source from Zogby. Zogby + NYT = notable.--Striver 13:32, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Also, found this on Scoop --Striver 13:50, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, and by the way, this is not priamrily a website, so WP:WEB is not applicable.--Striver 13:56, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: No evidence whatever that anyone other than the members and author have heard of the organization.  The references inside the article are to fact claims and to already-convinced groups.  Furthermore, the report "will be released" in the future.  Let's wait to see how much of a ripple that makes before we explain this group to an incurious world.  Geogre 14:01, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Report already released, see article again. The Christian Science Monitor refering to it: --Striver 14:09, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom --BaronLarf 14:23, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * So, that is a keep? Nom says "unless independent sources show [notability]", and it has done that for the group. --Striver 14:28, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Just added a PBS source. --Striver 14:32, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * And C-Span. Can we have a speedy keep, notability is no longer a question.--Striver 14:34, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Washington Times also added. Do i smell bias? --Striver 17:14, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * All I see is this Kyle Hence guy occasionally manaeuvering himself into a position where he;s able to give a jopurnalist a tiny quote. I'm not particularly impressed by that as proof of notability for the organisation. Artw 19:40, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
