Note: If you are seeing this page as a result of an attempt to re-nominate an article for deletion, you must manually edit the AfD nomination links in order to create a new discussion page using the name format of [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PAGENAME (2nd nomination)]]. When you create the new discussion page, please provide a link to this old discussion in your nomination. -->

The result was '''delete'''. Although the discussion below indicates that the ''topic'' is notable, there also appears to be a consensus that the article as it stands cannot be used to write about this topic due to fundamental issues with [[WP:NPOV|a neutral point of view]] and [[WP:NOR|original research]] (both of which supersede any questions of notability) that prevent it from growing beyond its current state.

I'm going to take the liberty of starting a new stub on which others should feel free to expand. If anyone would like the deleted text to use as a reference, please leave a message on my talk page. --[[User:jonny-mt|<span style="color:#297AA3">'''jonny'''</span>]]-[[Special:Contributions/jonny-mt|<span style="color:#A3293D">'''m'''</span>]][[User talk:jonny-mt|<span style="color:#3DA329">'''t'''</span>]] 05:15, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' As noted by others above, the concept seems to be [[WP:NOTABILITY|notable]] enough to warrant an article. The only issue seems to be one of style and content, which (IMO) can both be tackled without deleting. I'll leave my thoughts on how to improve the article on Sashakr's [[User talk:Sashakr|talk page]] to keep the discussion here from going off topic.
