The article has nothing to establish notability. I posted three Google News hits on the talk page, but I don't think they are enough. John of Reading (talk) 20:52, 10 January 2011 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Courcelles 02:14, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

KeepThere are at least two instances of Government referring to the WAVE Trust report in 2010:

1. The Liberal Democrats 2010 manifesto includes, on page 50, a committment to "Support the objective of at least a 70 per cent reducation in child maltreatment by 2030, promoted by the WAVE trust".

2. A Scottish Parliament Finance Committee meeting in November 2010 relied heavily on WAVE Trust's evidence. --Velcro velcro (talk) 17:12, 17 January 2011 (UTC) — Velcro velcro (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Keep. Wave Trust is researching and promoting early intervention across the UK. It has provided a wide ranging analysis of how the root causes of adult violence lie in the pre-verbal experiences of infancy, and this has been a resource for both individuals and other organisations to draw upon. The lines of communication that the WAVE Trust has created between evidence based clinical practice, research on many aspects of early development and a range of decision makers has greatly contributed to the thinking about prevention of maltreatment in the first few years of life. — Robin 4 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Keep, despite questionable users above. Some subjects just aren't searched, reported widely in the news, or talked about (given 'Bad News' bias). That doesn't exactly make them not notable. I found another source from the World Health Organization. -- Obsidi ♠ n Soul  06:06, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
