• Strong Keep - large, international, professional organization. 92,000 hits on Google!! Definitely notable. Needs to be edited to remove the advertisement-like parts. - Nortonew 18:55, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm not saying it's not notable. I'm just saying that there's only a promo in the article space, and it should be deleted until somebody's written an article about it. Dave 19:29, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
