Delete nothing to indicate that this organization is notable, borderline spam. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 00:47, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete--there is nothing here. Drmies (talk) 01:29, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: there is something, but it doesn't go into any depth other than saying that it exists. Tavix (talk) 01:37, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Sure--but allow me some rhetorical leeway... ;) Drmies (talk) 01:45, 10 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge whatever unique and usable content there is into Joslin Diabetes Center and then Expand. This does not warrant its own article but it is certainly not spam. --Crunch (talk) 03:02, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I fixed the article, and see these pictures - http://www.joslin.org/International_Programs_1912.asp - medical center has got to fall in the category of notable hospital or notable medical center. And, it's affiliated with the Harvard Medical School, Joslin is the name of the diabetes center at the school, it is part of it.  --Mr Accountable (talk) 03:07, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. Yes, but Joslin Diabetes Center has its own article. This is a branch. Does it warrants its own article? What you have added could be covered in one or two sentences in the main Joslin article. --Crunch (talk) 03:39, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * No, there are external links and Bahraini categories to consider, it couldn't be folded into the Joslin article; at any rate, after searching Joslin Diabetes Center on google images, the Gulf Center looks as though it is as big as the Joslin center in Longwood. Considering the financial resources of the Bahraini government, and considering that it's probably a part of Salmaniya just as Joslin is a part of Longwood, the article is bound to expand, see Joslin Diabetes Center itself to see how this article could look....if Joslin has an article as part of HMS and Longwood, why shouldn't we have article Gulf Center as part of Salamaniya?   It is notable in and of itself, anyway. --Mr Accountable (talk) 03:58, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
