- Keep - Shook it up, added lots of sources. As the organisation Arizona law officials turned to during the

- But definitely: The scope of their activities is national or international in scale. The organization has received significant coverage in multiple[1] reliable sources that are independent of the organization. Panyd The muffin is not subtle 18:28, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

- Keep the nom statement seems to suggest that the organization is not notable because it is small and collects hearsay reports.
