[edit] Out in Schools
A film and media company that operates seemingly only in the lower mainland of British Columbia, shown films to only 1900 students, no other assertions of notability. SGGH speak! 08:45, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Out in Schools is a youth education program that operates in the lower mainland of British Columbia. The reference shows the link to the source, where I took the information regarding the participants of the program. I've edit the link again to include an additional one which shows a list of the various school screenings that took place in 2006-2007. If that is not enough notability, I can currently eliminate that fact until I research more in-depth to present more accurate numbers. Since Out in Schools is a new pilot project that was launched in 2004, it's beginning to get recognition in the community this year. Here are a few references to Out in Schools in the Vancouver community:

- Delete. Such organizations exist in the 'millions'. Why is this one notable? Agree it fails Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). Cheers ! Wassupwestcoast (talk) 20:46, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
