Article is confused between private campaign to have a certain medal created and the proposed medal itself. Appears to serves largely as publicity for private interests and individuals. What reliable sources there are are passing mentions, and only contribute to a violation of WP:CRYSTAL. ninety:one 14:13, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I find it very useful to give an overview of the position for and against, it is a good start point for research and general knowledge. It may yet evolve into the facts of the medal if/when it is finally instigated. 1 July 2011 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.166.116.237 (talk) 15:23, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete article seems to have been written to promote this campaign, and there are no indications of notability. A Google search of this term returns only the campaign's website and Wikipedia mirrors. Nick-D (talk) 09:35, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
