fails WP:CORP. potential hoax or at the very least blatant self promotion. nothing in gnews, despite the grand claims of being involved with notable people. lacks reliable sources. also note the excessive and unnecessary use of categories. LibStar (talk) 07:15, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete as blatant advertising. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:13, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. No evidence of notability. I have checked the references, and they all suffer from one or more of the following problems: from the Global Townhall's own website, Twitter page, or other non-independent source; from Facebook, Twitter, or a nother non-reliable source; does not mention Global Townhall (this applies to many of the "references"); mentions someone who has some connection to Global Townhall, s and mentions in passing that connection, with no other mention of Global Townhall at all. In fact I wouldn't oppose a speedy deletion under speedy deletion criterion A7. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:43, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
