I came here via The London Irish Centre, whose history seems to be similar to this article - a lot of text and photo copied from the official website, and it seems User:London Irish Centre Camden who started this article became User:Mazzanine2010 who started that one. There's an obvious potential WP:COI here - however I suspect that same COI means that the user in question may well own the copyright to the text and image in question, so this may be resolvable via WP:OTRS rather than the copyvio-delete route. I was just passing by doing coords, so if someone more au fait with copyvio procedures would like to pursue this one, that would be great. I don't think there's any fundamental problem with the notability though. Le Deluge (talk) 10:38, 13 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for noting this issue. I've notified the user (at his or her new name: User talk:Mazzanine2010) how to verify the content so that it can be retained. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:56, 24 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
