 * Weak delete - yeah, a tough one. Plenty of news "hits" but most relate to other stuff where the GBCC is an "also" mention or is mentioned in reference to an award they gave out or someone who was a member. Strong case for an argument that the organisation fails WP:CORPDEPTH. It doesn't WP:INHERIT notability from its members, which is where I think most of the sources fall down. Most the sources provided don't give the organisation "coverage", rather they cover someone who spoke at one of their meetings or someone associated with the organisation doing something not related to the organisation.

 * Weak delete I agree with Stalwart on all of his points. Additionally, the person writing this is a huge COI. I believe this article could be remade in a more suitable tone, and by someone who wants to create an article on the subject, rather than the marketing communications manager.--Riverrunner123 (talk) 02:56, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
