I had previously nominated this article for speedy after not being able to locate significant reliable source coverage. Speedy nomination was removed citing the advice to "First look for sources & if not found, only then nominate for deletion." Since I had already done that prior to the original nomination, I am now bringing it to AfD. Perhaps someone else will have better luck turning up significant reliable source coverage.

- Comment SimpsonDG, I haven't had similar luck discovering reliable sources which I imagine you are basing your !vote on. Would you be kind enough to share some of those reliable sources so we can see them? I'm happy to change my !vote if there is significant reliable source coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. I just haven't been able to locate it. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 14:53, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
