Non-notable organization. No significant coverage (other than trivial mentions or web listings) to be found in Google news or Google web. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:47, 31 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - I found a news mentions (, but no substantial coverage. As such, notability hasn't been established. --ThaddeusB (talk) 21:01, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete - with out prejudice to coming back in the very near future. I was able to find a few more references, as shown here .  But just not enough to establish notability at this time.  However, when and if they finally get official recognition of the International Olympic Committee more than happy to help write the piece for inclusion here at Wikipedia.  Thanks.

 * [[Image:Symbol delete vote.svg|15px]] DELETE This article appears to be self-promotion in contravention of Wikipedia’s conflict of interest guidelines (WP:COI). Moreover, it and its associated articles (i.e., Dr. Stephen J. Press and Sports chiropractic) appear to also be self-promotion in that they promote the field in which the subject of the related autobiograpy earns his livelihood also in contravention of WP:COI. The conflict of interest issues are all the more apparent when one notices that the category listing, of which the article forms a part, has the effect of directing Wikipedians to the related autobiography and its subject’s associated articles, to each of which the autobiographer/self-promoter is a major contributor. There is an interconnectedness between these three articles, and the category listing collecting them all, that raises a red flag as regards Wikipedia’s conflict of interest guidelines. Alternatively, the article does not establish notability as per WP:ORG. Further, inasmuch as it cites anything, it seems to cite self-published sources, and the organization it purports to be about in contravention of WP:SELFPUB and perhaps even WP:CIRCULAR. Finally, in order to retain the article, it desperately needs reliable, verifiable, properly cited, third-party sources. — SpikeToronto (talk) 05:29, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
