This is an obscure one-woman movement; and the founder of this movement is also the primary editor of the article. The sourcing is trivial and inappropriate; the notability seems to me to be almost non-existent (Pravda of that era is not exactly a reliable source).

Delete – This movement is not the subject of WP:BASIC substantial in-depth coverage by multiple reliable sources. Agree that the sourcing available reflects trivial coverage, and that this article exists at all because of efforts by a COI editor, and my research hasn't found any indication of notability.

Delete: I agree with Orange Mike completely. –Ugncreative Usergname (talk) 02:47, 5 January 2012 (UTC) ~~Now with Sp33dyphil's comment I'm not sure whether to keep or not.~~ Back to delete; sources aren't good enough.[reply]

Comment I've found [1], [2], and [3]. Never mind about the reliability of Pravada, the fact that the movement was talked about by the official newspaper of the largest and the second most powerful country gives it some credibility. After all, it was supported in many countries. Has anybody searched the topic in Russian? --Sp33dyphil ©^hat_ontributions 07:31, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- reply The Soviets were notorious for puffing anything they could portray as a "peace movement" in the West; that was my point. As to the three sources you list: one is a link I can't open to a PDF hosted on something called the Garnaut Climate Change Review; the second is a local TV station "Local woman calls for peace" squib; and the third is a document written by Cassini herself, on a music website. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:30, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
information - Cassini herself (Aweaver2) has requested the deletion of this article. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:38, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
