Non-notable,suggest merger Fireaxe888 (talk) 15:40, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. One of the more notable anti-piracy campaigns. The first AfD contains some sources; doubtless there are more than enough to establish notability out there. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 15:43, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Almost as funny as some of the early Microsoft commercials, and as "hip" as the Brady Bunch, but notable. PHARMBOY (TALK) 16:04, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Sourced, well written and notable. No reason to delete. Gandalf61 (talk) 16:58, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  The article has zero reliable sources that are talking about the campaign. WillOakland (talk) 03:15, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Important to the history of copyright, plenty of hits on google. Bsimmons666 (talk) 17:19, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per everyone basically. JuJube (talk) 21:56, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; this would only seem non-notable to someone who wasn't paying attention to computing in the 1980s. Warren -talk- 23:31, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to the SIIA article unless someone can come up with reliable sources that give the campaign more than a passing mention. Whether you've heard of it is not the point. WillOakland (talk) 23:33, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  And since the nominator is not asking for deletion anyway, why is this here? WillOakland (talk) 23:33, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy keep. No one here is looking for deletion as noted, this is not a Articles for Merging forum, use the talk page people!! JBsupreme (talk) 05:17, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
