The result was   keep. There is a clear consensus that the coverage of this organization in reliable sources is sufficient to establish its notability. (non-admin closure) DavidLeighEllis (talk) 01:31, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

Sf.citi

Contested A7 speedy, org does appear to have some coverage in local media Tawker (talk) 19:50, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Keep (as creator): It also has coverage by national media. Here is an article from the New York Times discussing sf.citi and its chairman, Ron Conway, entitled "A Silicon Valley Vision for San Francisco": http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/19/us/ron-conway-tech-investor-turns-focus-to-hometown.html?_r=0 Prauls901 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 02:43, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Keep: There is national and local news coverage. Industry specific lobbying are arguably the most significant players in American politics. It makes sense to cover these sort of large organizations. Its members are not just local businesses; these are the largest companies in the country and the world: Facebook, Google, etc. ZZZ (talk) 06:10, 3 April 2014 (UTC) — Azalea666 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Keep: sf.citi is mentioned as a main subject in two sources in the article and elsewhere eg . It also gets a solid paragraph in another reference. Through the news sites are local they are independent and reliable, and more indicative of notability than some local magazine in a small town. The group is clearly a significant lobby in the local industry and includes notable companies such as Google and Facebook. (I am aware that notability is not inherited per se; however, those being members combined with the news coverage surely indicates a sufficient level of notability.)

Is this discussion over yet? All comments are positive, it was flagged unnecessarily, and it's obvious it meets notability standards. Prauls901 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 06:50, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
