318:(possibly with cleanup). Referring to it as a website and measuring it by Alexa is disingenous. It quite clearly states that it's an organization, and that ".org" is merely part of the name they were incorporated under. It even makes reference to its website. Websites don't have websites! :) As an organization, the article seems to assert its notability well enough. --
291:- There's a fascinating history of students fighting Diebold, and I just went to a meeting of a student-led free culture group on another campus.
