Wikipedia ain't here to host activist websites. The topic of this article has no lasting encyclopedic notability and is clearly doing nothing more than promoting the campaign (whose internet presence is a promotional website and a facebook group with 158 members). As a student at the University in question, I'd never even heard of the "organization" until I came across the article. The main author has some WP:CoI problems here (without saying any more, facebook clears it up, but see photo upload). Note, the guy's website actually links the wikipage from its mainpage ( http://lowerrentsnow.org). Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk) 05:04, 16 March 2009 (UTC) reply
