• I have seen this organisation referenced in specialist magazines (including some that are available in mainstream bookstores and newsagents); however, I haven't got an example immediately to hand. Might I suggest that the speedy nomination (as 'nonsense') is invalid, but that this article needs to be tagged as lacking sources? As and when I can acquire some printed sources, I will of course add them to the article. AlexTiefling (talk) 15:05, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
