 * Delete this site is not an advert to promote clubs. Jelly the Supermodel (talk) 02:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Can this user vote? No contributions to WP other than a few deletion demands. Suspect sock-puppet.212.71.37.74 (talk) 05:39, 30 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep. We have several articles on Bird Watching Societies. See Category:Ornithological organizations. This article is sourced and it does not particularly read like an advert. If it did read like an advert, it should be fixed, not deleted. I would however like to see something of its significance in India. --Bduke (talk) 05:03, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Legitimate notable organization. Sensiblekid (talk) 05:28, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. The subject is significant enough for an article. - Rustam  06:52, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. An advert, not an article. Not the slightest sign of any real-world impact or notice. --Calton | Talk 13:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. So which unreal world does Bangalore belong to? Phil Bridger (talk) 22:20, 31 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. This article does read a bit like an advert. Notability for the club isn't established, and it appears to be a local club for the Bangalore area. "[non-commercial] Organizations whose activities are local in scope are usually not notable unless verifiable information from reliable independent sources can be found." --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 20:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Bangalore has a population of about 6.5 million, which is larger than the population of many countries. The Bangalore area extends beyond the city so must have an even larger population. I don't think you can call this an organisation whose activities are "local in scope". Phil Bridger (talk) 22:18, 31 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep. Whilst perhaps not extremely notable, I say keep, although the article could certainly use copy-editing. Alloranleon (talk) 17:31, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
