 * Comment: I have referred the nominator to Contact us/Article problem. In the meantime, I have fixed the malformed AfD nomination with no judgment on the merits of the nomination. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 22:34, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep Not a valid reason for deletion as you have no "ownership" over an article about you or your company. Please see FAQ/Organizations for more information Yoenit (talk) 23:10, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep that is not a good reason for deletion, besides the topic is notable, Sadads (talk) 17:11, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: self-requested deletion is a courtesy we normally only apply to biographies of living people. The state defense force is clearly notable.  bahamut0013  words deeds 18:53, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep: clearly notable and I cannot see any legal issues that would require it to be locked or even deleted. All users, including the nominator, can expand the article if they wish/or are concerned about its content. I cannot see any reason to treat this differently to any other article about an organisation, business or military. Anotherclown (talk) 00:24, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
