[edit] Critical Mass (pressure group)

Removed prod on this, mainly because it has been an article for a long time, and the group seems like it might be notable. I can't tell quickly if the group really isn't notable, or if the article just isn't giving them a proper treatment in that area. Looking for community input. Original prod reason given was, "No assertion of anything other than local notability. No external verification apart from a cryptic free website. Reads like a rambling vanity article."

• Delete - appears to be a non-notable group, one of countless such groups, and this one doesn't seem to have made a significant impact that would cause them to stand out and deserve an encyclopedia entry. Akradecki 04:08, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - Can't see much more than self reference here. If there could be some indication of how they are notable in the outside world I would change my mind. JASpencer 06:53, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
• Query Is this group related to the bicycle-riding Critical Mass? While I've been in an exchange with editors of that article who have adamantly denied that their Critical Mass is some kind of eco-anarchist political or pressure group, I had a friend in London as a teenager who regularly went on Critical Mass bike rides in the belief that it was an edgy anarchist protest group which was contributing to the environmentalist/socialist movement by causing traffic obstructions and so pissing off motorists.

  • No, this group appears to be unrelated. The bicycling Critical Mass is not an organized group, and has no political motives. Zetawoof^(ζ) 00:14, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
