[edit] CGMA

Non-notable independent "association" operating from a PO Box in Missouri. Google searches bring up mainly hits related to a different, more well-known, Country Gospel organization of the same acronym: the Canadian Gospel Music Association (cgmaonline.com). Also hits for various other groups called CGMA, but not this one. Fails all notability tests. wikipediatrix 17:56, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

I do not see where this article does not meet the notibility test? This is a viable and ligitimate organization. I am sorry Wikipediatrix, but you seem to rely on Google for an aweful lot of your resourcing and Google has not been found to be the most reliable source for information. There are plenty of references to this organization and I do not feel it needs to be deleted. Would deleting this article make it any less true that this organization exsists or has a rightful place in the field of Christian music? Hmmm. We might want to ponder that. Thank you for your time.

• Delete, as it stood at the time of nomination, it fit the deletion requirements, with the additional edititing, it still does not meet the requirements of WP:ORG and the only sources provided are fromt he organization's web page, which fails WP:RS.--Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 00:49, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete although it should be noted that, if I recall correctly, the Wikimedia Foundation received mail at a postal box of sorts as well for many years. Yamaguchi先生 18:54, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
