Article lacks sources other than to organization website. No secondary sources indicate notability. Google search reveals websites for local branches of MOPS, but not much more. Fails WP:GNG & WP:CLUB as multiple, third party sources do not indicate importance. – S. Rich (talk) 22:03, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment by OP – a secondary source has been added to the article. Basically it is the repeat of a press announcement by MOPS about changes in management. Does not, IMO, provide indication of notability. – S. Rich (talk) 00:13, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I've never heard of MOPS before, but I did find a number of sources in my HighBeam search of which I added several sources. There are more I could add. The first source I added above stated that the article was put together by the staff of the magazine (at the bottom of the article). I am One of Many (talk) 00:26, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment by OP – I see the additional sources. With your efforts in mind and appreciated, I shall withdraw this nomination. Not at the moment though. I'm engaged on another gnomish project at present. Probably tomorrow. – S. Rich (talk) 00:56, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
