 * If you google 'metavid' it gets nearly 400k hits some notes on specific criteria: The content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself. Some examples a MIT Technology Review article about the project other in print example articles pixels in public interest, and arts coverage etc. The website or content has won a well-known and independent award from either a publication or organisation. The Sunlight_Foundation awarded the project a transparency grant for 164K  Was recognised at TechSoup NY3K event where it was selected as an innovative community application   etc. Let me know if you want me to list out more stuff. --mdale (talk) 04:14, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep I added a few references to the article. Metavid appears to be a fairly important archive that is leading the wave of wanted transparency in government. Because of this, a number of news sources have discussed the website and its importance in the task of transparency, making it fairly notable and meeting the GNG.
