[edit] TeachersCount
Tagged for speedy deletion as spam. Is obviously promotional in tone, but not properly spam, and has been brought back after WP:PROD so probably needs a fuller debate. Hard to say whether the group is truly significant or not. Clear conflict of interest from creating user, User:TeachersCount, which accounts for the advertorial tone.

- Keep. Multiple cited third-party refs assert notability. DMacks 19:08, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. I wikified a little, & removed the lists of prominent celebrities who nominated their favorite teacher & appeared in ads and sponsors. It doesn't look that spammy now. I think the inline links to some independent sources, such as the NEA and whitehouse.gov show Notability: I'll rework them as references. The site is intended for the promotion of the profession, but that is what many N organizations do.DGG 19:19, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- Weak Keep I rewrote the entry to avoid a copy paste from their website. I think the organization might be notable per the media coverage it received after Mrs Bush visit. But the article lacks reliable sources attesting its notability. -- lucasbfr talk 10:29, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
