Prod disagreed with. The organization has been around for a while, but aside from that it has no real claims to notability or links to reviews by reliable sources. NuclearWarfare (Talk) 03:50, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Strong Keep This is one of the most prominent LGBT organisations in California. Three minutes on Google turns up more than enough prominent media coverage: [http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20060601/news_lz1c01know.html], [http://www.gaywired.com/Article.cfm?Section=66&ID=19812], [http://www.sdcitybeat.com/cms/event/detail/lambda_archives_20th_anniversary/1649/], [http://www.gaylesbiantimes.com/?id=11112], [http://sldn.bluestatedigital.com/blog/archives/lambda-honors-sldn-ally-bridget-wilson/].

  • Extreme KEEP. Certainly the article could be tagged for sources, but extreme notability is found with even the most cursory of searches. The organization has been around for over 20 years, for gosh sakes. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 04:26, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment - I am unsure what is going on, but:

"Your search - Lambda Archives - did not match any documents."

::Let me see if I can figure out what is going on. NuclearWarfare (Talk) 04:33, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Apparently, this goes beyond this one search, and applies to all my google searches. I'm not sure what is going on, but I'm going to switch to Yahoo :( in the meantime. Feel free to close this AfD, as I see that Yahoo is giving me notability hits. NuclearWarfare (Talk) 04:48, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Speedy Keep - notable per Ecoleetage's sources. @NuclearWarfare Try [http://www.google.com/search?&q=Lambda%20Archives here]. Matt (Talk) 05:07, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Interesting. I can get stuff via your link, but not through [http://www.google.com/search?q=Lambda+Archives&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a this one]. Firefox might be the problem then.
  • Nom has been withdrawn; this can be speedy kept. NuclearWarfare (Talk) 05:12, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
