Tasmanians for a Better Future

 * – ( View AfD View log )

PROD was contested on the basis that there were "tons of sources", but the few that exist seem to be neither significant nor reliable. The group may or may not have had an impact on the 2006 Tasmanian state election (the article only appeals to anecdotal evidence) but since it's a group that no one ever seemed to know anything about, it fails the notability guidelines.

 * Keep This topic has been covered by the news, here are a list of some potential references.– Phoenix B 1of3 (talk) 03:28, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I saw that list. I'm struggling to find a source on that list that is both reliable and significant. StAnselm (talk) 22:20, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
 * So The Australian, The Mercury, the ABC, the Australian Financial Review and The Age are neither "reliable or significant", in your book. I think you have an interesting sense of humour. Rebecca (talk) 12:34, 29 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment. So if you spend $100,000 dollars on political advertising does that get you a Wikipedia page? Ray-Rays 20:31, 25 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - Seems a legitimate encyclopedic topic in Australian political history. THIS ARTICLE intimates that Tasmanians for a Better Future was a campaign of the Labour Party to undercut the Greens. Big political parties and their publicized tricks are generally noteworthy, it seems to me... Carrite (talk) 01:30, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. One of the more notable Tasmanian political topics of this decade, and an according amount of references to boot. That a Victorian isn't particularly educated on Tasmanian politics is not a reason to delete a notable article. Rebecca (talk) 12:32, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Rebecca, as a very experienced editor, there is no need to make snide remarks about the location of an editor. LibStar (talk) 13:28, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Especially since I was born and bred in Tasmania... StAnselm (talk) 20:32, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
