  • Keep I think this would comfortably pass notability I did the most cursory of search not much on google news [1] but several websites like:

  • Delete - No independent sourcing to show notability. The sources given by Tetron76, when translated, also look to be advertisements, press releases, and non independent. Yaksar (let's chat) 21:51, 12 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I made my response quickly and added the first link from google news which as pointed out would fail notability requirements.

The second source I gave above [3] comes from the official NASDAQ OMX Group as proven to be genuine from the link on [4]. This sources might well be considered not independent but its size and legitimacy strongly suggest "presumed sources" in Baltic language newspapers.

Several other sources I found come from Stockholm School of Economics in Riga which is not independent but did win an award in part for this event [5] but since the award came from NASDAQ OMX Baltic this is one big circle.

I think the following two sources are independent and count as RS to establish WP:GNG:

  • The second I am not 100% sure about meeting the requirement is from balticbusinessnews.com [7] by Marge Tubalkain-Trell who has had articles in the The Baltic Times [8]

At worst this is a case of not just yetTetron76 (talk) 13:40, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
