• Keep many art organisations are not pervaisive in the media on purpose. This article should not be deleted simply on the argument of quantifiable google searches. Vanessa kelly 19:08, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, meets not notabilty or WP:WEB critera. JohnnyBGood 21:44, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment The swing factor for me was notability in context; it's a small scene. Otherwise I agree with notability. TKE 03:02, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What the hell does this have to do with WP:WEB? You haven't even read the article. Good job! Adam Bishop 03:07, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't have to do with WEB, it's just my personal decision on notability. I read the article, there are too many red links and that bothers me, but it's an artistic social circle which may or may not prove relevant, and we're not a crystal ball. However, many such art communes have ended up making lasting contributions to culture; that's my extended resoning. TKE 05:46, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see now that the adress is to the delete vote, I apologize. But I like my expansion for reasoning, sorry for the confusion. TKE 05:50, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Right, sorry, that was addressed to JohnnyBGood. However, you should re-read the article as well - this group existed in the 1920s. Adam Bishop 06:15, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, they might have died off and lost notabilitiy; or maybe they're part of the Cabal :) TKE 07:09, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
