Weak Keep, although I'd be happier if there was a reasonable place to merge it to, something about the reinstating draft debate. It is fairly clear that this bill was introduced not to pass but to generate more debate regarding the Iraq war. There was some news coverage of it (although not a lot) and quite a bit of reaction in the blogosphere. The mainstream media coverage includes NYT[1] Boston Globe[2], CBSNews[3], Sacramento Bee [4], HalifaxLive[5] and a few others. Nsk92 (talk) 12:15, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I have added a section on public debate in relation to the bill, with a number of news media references. The page still needs a lot of work, though. Nsk92 (talk) 21:49, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep, its a useful content fork for the draft article. MrPrada (talk) 17:54, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or transwiki to Wikisource, inappropriate content for an encyclopedia. Stifle (talk) 18:57, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, as the references provided in National_Service_Act_of_2006#References indicate sufficient coverage of this topic in third-party reliable sources to establish a presumption of its notability per the general notability guideline, and as the article includes an extensive discussion of the act attributed to third-party reliable sources, in addition to the text of the act itself. Concerns regarding the inclusion of the public domain text of the act should be addressed by discussion on the talk page, rather than by the deletion of the entire article.

Keep - needs clean up but AfD is not a request for clean up. As per John 254 there are adeqaute references to establish notability.--Matilda ^talk 17:52, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
