Pindown
Fails google test; dunno how far it can get without any google hits. Besides, not very notable topic. --How dare you? 21:58, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Major news story at the time, and Levy's report had a significant impact on child care practices. This doesn't fail the google test, you just have to filter out other uses of the term - try googling "pindown staffordshire". Also, as it was significant enough to warrant a public inquiry, what do mean when you say its "not very notable"? SP-KP 22:02, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Well I judged it based on the content of this article and what I found for it on google. Didn't seem to appeal to me.  Note that an AfD says in the tag that the article is being CONSIDERED for deletion, and in no way is it guaranteed that a deletion may occur for it.  --How dare you? 22:40, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as well, this search seems to give quite a few hits, some of them scholarly, so it seems ok to me. The article does lack sources, however, and I'll tag it as such.  -- Deville (Talk) 23:09, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep but add sources. --Wafulz 00:36, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep, the article needs improvement, but documents a significant event regarding the institutional treatment of children in care in the UK. -- Cactus.man  &#9997;  06:44, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
