347:. We do not have in-depth coverage from multiple reliable sources. A number of the sources are blogs or other unreliable content. Of those that might be considered reliable, most simply mention the name of the foundation without any further information about it. Further, the "Foundation" does not even have its own website, but is a subsection of a commercial site, goldmoney.com, with the subtitle "The best way to buy gold & silver" and which entices visitors to sign up as customers. This is spam, subtle spam, but spam nonetheless.

I think within its specialized subject, this foundation is very well known and relevant. It's been referenced by pretty reputable media sources including Forbes, FT and
Bloomberg. Please suggest if this article is missing anything important, but don't delete if it just needs improvement. --╪ 07:49, 4

If it is such a well-known organisation, why does it turn up zero hits in Google

I disagree with the above, the video page is quite well populated (over 240 videos, 4 languages, over 700.000 views) as well as widely linked by hundreds of secondary sources. The videos are mostly centered on academic and historical topics. --╪ 08:26, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Very helpful Yworo. I'm familiar with notability, thank you very much. Considering this is a very well known organisation in the sound money world, I did not imagine it would be a problem when I created this entry, especially since similar organisations like

Changing my opinion to just plain "delete". It turns out that James Turk does not currently have a
Knowledge (XXG) article. The James Turk linked to in the article is a retired federal judge, not an economist.
