An article on this organization was previously deleted under a different name at Votes for deletion/Island6. Although there may be a certain novelty in expressing these thoughts in lights or as gallery signage, the text itself lacks quotability. By analogy, Andy Warhol's paintings of soup cans are famously thought-provoking but the medium is the message: "Campbell's Soup" is not a quotable quote, no matter how much the paintings are discussed by art critics. — Ningauble (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete as nom. I hesitate to speedy delete this under WQ:CSD, "Already deleted," because the new article is substantially expanded but, because it is not significantly different in kind, I would not object if another administrator decides to do so. ~ Ningauble (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom. ~ UDScott (talk) 15:45, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - outside project scope. --Tryst (talk) 15:58, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
