Google gives a 5 hits for this organization, one is this article, the other 4 are linkedin posts by a Ken Charles. At the moment I'm not really sure that this organization actually exists, much less is notable. Travelbird (talk) 15:49, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails verifiability. There is no indication that this organisation actually exists. -- Whpq (talk) 15:18, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, as above. It's likely that an older organisation has more presence offline than online, but there's only so far I'm going to go to research that, it's the article writer's job. bobrayner (talk) 08:45, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Don't delete: This is a very old organization and does have more of a presence off-line as the previous members did not want a lot of publicity. We are trying to make the org more current. There are 15 member companies that are partnered in this org. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jrodd55 (talk • contribs) 16:23, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Simply stating that its a very old organisation isn't going to help keep this article. What you need to do is provide independent reliable sources writing about this organisation such as magazines or journals. -- Whpq (talk) 17:25, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is ridiculous that a real organization is being removed from Wikipedia. There is a LinkedIn.com group page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.107.239.233 (talk) 18:00, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
