Speedy deletion nomination

[edit]

Strong keep The nomination of this article for speedy deletion is yet another example of the lack of scalability in Wikipedia, which, due to the preponderance of editors being based there, is too U.S.-centric, and doesn't scale down well to other levels - in this case, to the State of South Australia. Climate change is an important topic in Australia (and South Australia is the driest state in the driest continent, except Antarctica), but, due to the very high concentration of media ownership in this country (which I have referred to elsewhere), the issues are often not necessarily very well-covered in the mainstream press, and thus may not be visible to overseas WP editors who rely solely on on-line searches for verifiability and notability.

The Premier's Climate Change Council is an important element of the State Government's response in developing policies to address the serious issues posed locally by climate change. And with California currently experiencing severe drought conditions, legislators have just come to South Australia to see how we are doing things here -(California looks to South Australia as it battles own 'millennium' drought, Californian drought delegation tours South Australia for possible water saving solutions, US politicians in Aust for drought lessons.
