This page on a prominent alternate global media event is being called "blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OURMedia/NUESTROSMedios To my mind, it is a listing of themes at the conference, and participants, together with some background (including past conferences) that led to the growth of the network. Could others please give their inputs on this? FN
Really, why are the participants, themes etcetera of a conference things to put on Wikipedia? As far as I can see, 90% of the page would do better to be put on their own website. Speedy deletion seems rather crude indeed, but it still indeeds reeks of advertising.
