Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because, as several sources indicate, the subject is sufficiently notable to warrant its own article. Specifically, the organization is a notable California PAC and is recognized as a hate group by the preeminent civil rights organization in the US, the Southern Poverty Law Center. Currently, there are other Wikipedia articles that reference this one. There are also other sources with which to expand this article. – MrX 22:33, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Being a hate group does not warrant notability in wikipedia. Links to this page do not contribute something useful to wikipedia beyond unduly promoting this org. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:54, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
It does if that designation rises to nation attention, which it has. Also, please note that the hate group listing is not the only reason this organization is notable/notorious. They are an active PAC and have caught the attention of the media for their outrageous public statements. – MrX 23:06, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
Many idiots catch media attention wor a while. YOu didn't convince me. We have specific rules for notability of organizations. Staszek Lem (talk) 01:17, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Mr. X has a good track record of researching and adding sources, I'm happy to give him the benefit of the doubt. Additionally this is a hard group to reasearch because the name supplies too many false positives. Mr. X I suggest you install Template:Under construction so it's more obvious you are still working on this. Insomesia (talk) 01:21, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
