*:Your suggested merger is a very good suggestion.

  • Keep. The cited sources in Voice of Russia, state radio, and state tv + this article about them and their exhibition in Dala-Demokraten + this article in The Local + this mention in Dagens Nyheter + this additional mention in Voice of Russia + this mention in Svenska Dagbladet, this article in Dagbladet (sv)... I could probably find more if I looked harder. I find that "an organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources" is fulfilled.

    The Dala Demokraten link covers the Russian Bride program, one event that does not establish the notability of an organization; it ends with boilerplate text that likely is copied directly from a news release; it is a minor newspaper. In English, The Local's long article discusses Russians in Sweden and Swedish views of Russia; again the head of the association is quoted for her views, not speaking on behalf of the organization. As I wrote above, it is an organization with one notable event (Russian bride); its head is sometimes asked for comments about being Russian in Sweden. With the exception of The Russsian Bride, any activities of the organization are ignored. Please give one reliable source discussing an organizational activity besides The Russian Bride. is a 19:35, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
