[edit] Christine Maggiore Action Committee
Christine Maggiore seems to be reasonably notable, but this action committee does not. I suggest a delete. Tony Bruguier 03:15, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Merge with Christine Maggiore. --Jadriaen 03:17, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- CMAC recently incorporated as a small non-profit in the Baltimore area. We were able to register www.ChristineMaggiore.com, and will be launching a full website on May 16, 2006, the one year anniversary of her daughter's death from AIDS-related pneumonia. Christine Maggiore is a prominent figure in the AIDS Denialist movement and her daughter's death has been covered in the LA Times and on ABC's "Primetime." CMAC is the first organized effort to counter AIDS denialists' claims that is directly targeted at Maggiore. --Robbieisfun 03:25, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Comment let's add linkspam to the list then. Tony Bruguier 03:27, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- I am new to Wikipedia. Does the organization need to make it into the newspaper or be mentioned on multiple websites before it is "important?" If you could clarify this for me, I would appreciate it.--Robbieisfun 03:30, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. Suggestion: make a section in the Christine Maggiore article about this Acion Committee, and this page will redirect to that one. But I suggest you even wait with doing that until your has launched. For the moment, you are non-notable (cf. Wikipedia:Notability). --Jadriaen 03:32, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

- Merge per Jadriaen. --AbsolutDan (talk) 03:31, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- I am happy with merging this with Christine Maggiore until the organization achieves some more notariety. I am not sure how to do this though. Thank you everyone for helping out a WikiRookie.--Robbieisfun 03:33, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Cf. Wikipedia:Merging and moving pages. But you might want to wait until this discussion here is over. Cheers, and welcome to Wikipedia. --Jadriaen 03:36, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

- Comment deletion would also be fine. the website will be up in a week. can the sentence I added to the Christine Maggiore article be left in?--Robbieisfun 03:48, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Comment Your comment there links to the committee page, that will probably be deleted. I'd rather put the name of the committee in bold or put an external link to your homepage. --Jadriaen 03:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- I think I fixed it. I bolded CMAC and added a "Criticism" section to the links with a link to the CMAC site. Okay? --Robbieisfun 04:03, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

- Delete It does not even merit a mention on Christine Maggiore as there is not even one hit on Google for the committee. Even the web site is only a holding page. There is no verification whatsoever for this committee. I have deleted it from Christine Maggiore. Wiki is not the place to promote new ventures. Sorry. Tyrenius 05:27, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, at least for now. If they achieve some notability once they're actually online, I fully support an article, however. -- stubblyhead | T/c 17:53, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete for now. But CMAC will be back..."notably"...very soon! Thanks for everyone's contributions to this discussion.--Robbieisfun 20:26, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
