The Open Organization Of Lockpickers

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This should be speedy deleted as A7, but Phaedriel who had previously deleted under that criteria, undeleted herself for some reason, so I'm posting here. It's just a non-notable small lockpicking group. Only source is their website. Absolutely zero information about the group, other than it exists: the remainder of the article is about lockpicking on TV and on "legal concerns in the netherlands". This clearly should go. &rArr;   SWAT Jester    Denny Crane.  19:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete . No assertion of notability. HeirloomGardener 04:41, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I have now edited the article to include an assertion of notability. JulesH
 * Changed to Keep. Organiziation does appear to be notable, particularly for lock bumping. HeirloomGardener 18:48, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep -- these people brought the practice of lock bumping to the public attention, which was a fairly important breakthrough in lockpicking technique. See  for more info. JulesH 12:26, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep --I disclose that I am primary author of the article/entry TOOOL. If my style of creating the article and placing the information is not up to scratch then please help by suggesting/contributing. It would be a shame to let a decent article/stub get deleted just because it was not developed to better/higher standards immediately. There are a number of news/media coverage both on print and TV but I am still trying to get my hands on the exact reference data. -Deepraj | Talk 18:06, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
