 * Strong Keep I couldn't understand on which basis the nominator tagged for deletion on this page. Google News search show the following results. I think nominator should do more home work before he applies deletion, otherwise I will have to take him for a Rfc, irrespective of his/her tons of edits and clean ups. As once Jimmy Wales pointed out on a "Speedy Deletion' for the page he has created, "the nominator should concentrate on other projects than on Wiki". We need more real world maturity, understanding on regional cultures than cleverly using the Tools and Tags.Hillcountries (talk) 16:40, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep - Time could be better spent than discussing the notability of an organisation capable of putting together the programme line-up GOPIO did for their 2010 Annual conference http://gopio.net/news.htm .
