[edit] OURMedia/NUESTROSMedios
Tagged as a speedy and contested. I nearly speedied this as posted, but instead of closing it I'm listing it here because it appears that there was at least some discussion on the talkpage. For starters, I only found one external source for this that meets WP:ATT... then I realized that is for Ourmedia, which apparently is a completely different concept altogether. Some further research turned up no other reliable external sources. the external links are either links to the organizations own website, photo albums, or external companies that make no mention of the organization. Basically this is just a series of conferences and an extremely detailed log of the attendees, topics, etc. WP:NOT a webhost applies here, as does WP:N & WP:CORP. My opinion is Delete.

- Delete not simply "per nom", as Isotope23 has really done his homework. YechielMan 17:02, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

- RetainHere is a report from Computerworld. And links to the 900+ other mentions of it online. At its recent conference in Sydney, particpation in the event came in from 40 countries. Are we debating the notability of the event, or how well sourced the entry is (in the latter case, it could do with more sourcing... and already has included some, since the coment was made). If you want to find out notability, http://scholar.google.com might be a better place to check. See this page. Or the relevant links from here. Needless to say, this is a part-Spanish focussed network, and its emphasis is on the alternative media (print, radio, etc). Its influence and character may not be entirely reflected in an online world. Some of its organisers are academics linked to prominent institutions though. Including Juan Francisco Salazar (University of Western Sydney, Australia), Ellie Rennie (Swinbourne University of Technology, Australia) and Tanya Notley (Queensland University of Technology, Australia), among others. --fredericknoronha 02:38, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, spectacularly unencyclopædic. Notability in this case is not the issue (although I'm not convinced of that either), but simply that this is out-and-out promotional material that belongs on this organisation's website, not on Wikipedia. Lankiveil 03:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC).
