a non notable organization. I proposed deletion, based on the article's only two sources coming from the organization itself, but the proposal was rejected by an editor who added another source- which is a non-RS political advocacy organization, too HupHollandHup (talk) 14:12, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

  • Keep: The organization is mentioned in numerous articles for example: Electronicintifada: . Article at Norman Finkelsteins website: , The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre: Globalresearch: . OPGAI has many notable mambers and OPGAI has participated at several international conferences such as the Belain Conference, World Social Forum and the European Social Forum. OPGAI also started the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Campaign endorsed by 171 organizations, unions, networks and political parties --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 14:34, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
Just being "mentioned" in an article is not enough to establish notability. We need significant, in-depth coverage in 3rd party sources to establish notability. On top of that, most of the "mentions" you list above are in non-mainstream, non-RS sources. HupHollandHup (talk) 15:03, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
All sources above are 3rd party. Norman Finkelsteins website is pretty big, he received his doctorate from the Department of Politics at Princeton University. Finkelstein is the author of five books which have been translated into more than 40 foreign editions,, there are many interviews with him on the web and many major news agency's have articles about him including the BBC . Globalresearch is a mainstream website. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre was established in 1998 by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), is the leading international body monitoring conflict-induced internal displacement worldwide Electronicintifada is a major media website about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 16:20, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
Nazi propaganda and Muslim propaganda are hardly reliable sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Typesupper2 (talkcontribs) 21:05, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
First edit at wikipedia and you have shown up to this AfD calling Norman Finkelstein, Globalresearch and The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre established by the Norwegian Refugee Council for "Nazi propaganda and Muslim propaganda"... --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 22:11, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
No, I have called Norman Finkelstein a Nazi propagandist and the Electronic Intifada Muslim propagandists, the latter of which supports Islamic terrorism, and both support the invasion of Jewish lands (Israel belonged to Jews centuries before Muslims and Arabs even existed) by Muslims. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Typesupper2 (talkcontribs) 22:57, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
The articles have nothing in common. OPASGHAI is a real organization. --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 22:15, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
