OR essay on a non-notable field of one state's laws. Hemlock Martinis (talk) 18:49, 8 May 2008 (UTC)


 * keep. Nominator is misguided it is OR. In fact a huge piece (deleted by me) was cut and paste from the law itself. State's law cannot be nonnotable by definition: it governs the life of a whole state. And wikipedia is not paper. Mukadderat (talk) 19:26, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per Mukadderat. It does not read like OR and cites sources. Given the importance of access to public records in a free society, I cannot see this as anything but notable, even down to the state level.    Dloh  cierekim  20:10, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep as per above comments. Article could do with improvement though.... KTC (talk) 20:54, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. Absolutely notable, article can be edited to address any other faults. This is the state equivalent of Freedom of Information Act (United States), and as with most public legislation, sources abound. Xymmax (talk) 20:57, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Appears to be a fairly important state law of broader interest outside of just Massachusetts.  Article could use expansion. KleenupKrew (talk) 11:56, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
