- Comment. The reason given by the nominator is not a reason for deletion. It might well be advertising. The question is whether there are sources that can be used to justify notability and convert this to an article that is not advertising. Is it notable? It gets a lot of google hits that show that it is mentioned frequently by other parts of the orienteering community in the UK. It also gets some newspaper mentions, but I am not sure whether they are notable. A successful orienteering club could well be notable. Maybe this article just needs work by someone who knows more about orienteering than I do. --Bduke (Discussion) 03:26, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
