Nominated for A7 speedy deletion by, but a significant part of this article is about an art installation, which are not eligible for speedy deletion under this criterion (and no others apply). I don't think the subject is notable, but it requires discussion to determine this. Thryduulf (talk) 22:02, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete under A7: Organisations otherwise Delete as not meeting the notability criteria  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 22:28, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I think that having an installation at a notable gallery is more than enough of a claim of significance to make it ineligble for speedy deletion. Thryduulf (talk) 09:15, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Fair point, so changing my recommended outcome  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 21:10, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete for now. I could not find any significant coverage about them in Reliable Sources, and the references listed in the article cite no major reliable sources. The group is clearly still a cult or underground phenomenon. However, I was intrigued to find that they seem to have an international reputation; they rate only seven mentions at Google News but those items are in four languages. They include passing mentions in the Irish Times and the Village Voice, which would be important sources if the items were more substantial. Possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON. --MelanieN (talk) 14:48, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
