[edit] Binet usa

Someone please verify the importance thereof? Could be vanity, or could be a useful program. Radiant! 13:15, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete unless someone comes up with more info or verification. Kevin Rector 14:13, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Trilobite (Talk) 15:18, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Thoughts from inside the LGBT community: this organization has been around for awhile, despite its rather small size. The lack of attention, membership, and funding is probably due to the fact that the bisexual community is the poor bastard child of the gay rights community -- that is, they get respect neither from the straight community nor from the gay community -- for various reasons. Ergo, their size and reach as determined by Google and Alexa (admittedly low) is not necessarily reflective of their notability, longevity, and importance. HyperZonk 17:10, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • I think you may be right. I was inclined to delete when I saw it because it seemed to be little more than a spam link, probably created by someone from the organisation in order to promote it, rather than a third party writing objectively about it. I've turned it into a properly formatted stub and changed my vote to Keep. I agree with your comments about the bisexual community. — Trilobite (Talk) 17:48, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep it, Wyss 18:58, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Went to one of their meetings once several years ago before I knew what was what. Tends to attract an odd crowd, but definitely known in the GLBT community. Katefan0 22:09, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. The above comments lead me to believe it's notable enough for inclusion. Carrp | Talk 22:13, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, yes bisexuals are often accused of being unfaithful fence-sitters. Article name should be changed to BiNet USA. Megan1967 05:16, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. And, yes, article name should be changed to BiNet USA. -- Jmabel | Talk 08:19, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
  • Agree with Jmabel on the name change. It's such a ubiquitous abbreviation that I almost passed right over it in its current form on the VfD page. Katefan0 20:08, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
