- Relax Guys! - this is a legit informational page. Everyone has one of those, EVEN YOU! If that is not the case, than lets kick out all the Sony,Phillips, BMW, etc. pages! What I see is that you are just acting in a discrimatory way, since this content has to do with religion! That is absolutly against the spirit and the concept of a FREE community encyclopedia! This article is not a propaganda, nor a advert! There many people in hungary, myself included who are intested in the charity work of YWAM organisation. This organisation is NON-profit therefore your idea of this article being used in commercial reasons is irrational! if you have any question or further comments please refer to me and I will gladly explain to you who YWAM and what it does. PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THIS ARTICLE!
- Delete Its irrelevant whether this is propaganda or not, the organization is still non-notable. You may do some good things. You may have some committed volunteers. But this isn't notable; Sony, BMW and Phillips are. Bottom line. Montco 21:14, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- I DO NOT THINK SO hey montco - I don not really think that the organisation needs to be notable to be on Wikipedia. There is no such rule, plus you can not just favor big corporate mashines who make millions of dollars exploiting 3rd world countries and completely disregard non-profit organisations who try to make a difference. All I am saying is that YWAM is actually doing a lot for the communities all over the world and espacially Hungary! It will be a shame to bully an organisation that tries to make people's life better! See, your agruments have no weight because you have no idea of YWAM's charity work and commitment. By the way, speaking of being notable, fyi YWAM has regional offices in almost EVERY country of the world, that means it is registered in recognised in all of these countries(I don't think you can say the same about such huge corporations like APPLE or even GOOGLE! ), even the coutries where there is evident opression and persecution of religion. That is really ironic that those country's governments legally and in fact accept YWAM but this "FREE", "COMMUNITY" encyclopedia does not! My belief is that u are completely biased and the "religious" background of YWAM scares you.

- Delete, possibly merge some info into Youth With A Mission. Comment on previous comments: Everything on Wikipedia needs to be notable, if it is not notable, it shouldn't be on Wikipedia. There are a whole bunch of guidelines you might want to take a look at, like WP:N. --Lijnema 13:58, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Clearly falls under the WP:ORG suggestion that "Individual chapters of national and international organizations are usually not notable enough to warrant a separate article unless sufficient notability is established through reliable and verifiable sources." I see no use of independent sourcing to establish any such notability, so no seperate article should exist. Any merge probably should be to List of YWAM bases#Europe, but that list looks like it violates the WP:NOT rule against being a repository of weblinks. GRBerry 17:15, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
