Stop Child Executions Campaign

This article appears to be about a non-notable campaign to prevent individual executions of children in Iran; however, Amnesty International did or does operate a campaign of the same name. There is no evidence that the two campaigns are directly related on researching various Amnesty International websites and databases, although the website for the campaign that is the subject of this article includes much information from the Amnesty International websites. After many hours of research, I have found no reliable sources that treat this campaign as the primary subject of the reference, and only one that describes it briefly as an avocation of the primary mover of this campaign. I could find no evidence that this campaign is a registered charity in any country; it does seek donations on the home page of the website, raising echoes of the issues that cropped up in relation to previous questionable charities.

Delete: I am assuming that this org isn't a part of the Amnesty International campaign (with the same name, as the nom stated). I cannot find any sources which would assert some notability either. 3 G-News hits, however they appear to be referencing the Amnesty International campaign. - Rjd0060 05:45, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep While Amnesty International is unquestionably in the forefront on human rights advocacy, there's no such thing as a monopoly on that cause. Nazanin Afshin-Jam is notable, particularly among neo-cons. The listed supporters might not be as well known, but you can't have "too many" advocates for human rights. The suggestion that this is a "bogus charity" raises the question of whether anyone has found any criticism of the group. Mandsford 13:32, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I trust you are aware that there is indeed an article about Nazanin Afshin-Jam, and that the article includes discussion of her charitable and community service work? Risker 20:34, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - You trust correctly. Under that logic, perhaps we don't need to mention famine relief in Ethiopia, since it's discussed in Bono. Mandsford 18:49, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: looks like a well writen article, and seems notable enoughZyMOS 06:42, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
keep The campaign does not claim anywhere to be part of or affiliated with Amnesty International, although they cooperate closely with them. SCE is an independent volunteer based Camapign which has made substantial efforts in saving children facing executions. A simple search of its co-founder name (Nazanin Afshin-Jam) shows international coverage of her and the SCE campaign by all major media from CNN to FOX to BBC to Al Jezeera. Deletion of this page difinitely would be a loss of reference and research for a well publicized campaign. Amnesty International has no claim to be the only organization working for human rights LiveLife 12:27, 3 December 2007 (UTC) —Preceding

Delete - I see no reliable sources to support this organization's notability. What I can find in my searches references Amnesty International. -- Whpq (talk) 18:17, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
