[edit] Young Uttaranchal
Non notable internet group. 1200 members. Advertisment.Zeimusu | Talk page 08:08, 2005 September 11 (UTC)
copyvio I tagged it as such. --rob 11:27, 11 September 2005 (UTC)- delete This a non-notable organization engaged in self-promotion. It might not be copyvio, since according to talk page, it was put up by the author themselves. Note: when I say non-notable I'm only refering to the internet group, not the people or place it's about. Members of this internet group should contribute to relevant articles, if they wish, but should avoid self-promotion. --rob 04:05, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
- Even WikiPedia on Net is non-notable
Partly agreed to. When you say non-notable to internet group, in a way you are challenging the authority of all those internet communities made on net including the Wikipedia Community. So should we say that Wikipedia too is non-notable??
Regarding self-promotion, Organization doesn't survive without promotion. And if one is not primitive, he would understand that Internet today is the unique platform to reach the members who are located in different parts of the world for different reasons.
However, leaving aside these issues, an organization is identified with its aims and objectives and its contribution towards a society. The Young Uttaranchal has been involved in various field activities such as Organizing essay writing competition in schools of Uttaranchal and presently is involved in Compiling / Publishing a Book on Career Guidance for the Students of Uttaranchal. The work of the group speaks for itself.
Just go through this article in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young_Bengal
When dead movements are mentioned no harm in mentioning a live one. Afterall Wikipedia is a Community meant for the Community.

- Retain Cannot agree to rob. Young uttaranchal is biggest non-profitable group on Uttaranchal at internet, One of the newest state of India. All activity of group aimed at upliftment of Uttaranchali people and culture.
Though 1200 member, Young Uttaranchal, is voice of one of the poorest state of India, where internet density is below 0.1%. The group members have added sigificant information about uttaranchal on wikipedia. Wikipedia should encourage such group. --Ganesh
Retain Cannot agree to rob. I am Public Relation Officer of the group and I think that the group is more than just a internet group. Its a movement in itself and with more than 1500 members worldwide, it in true sense working towards the development of Uttaranchal and its Culture. I vote to retain the Article
