I've added MorLUG here, but it seems like it'd be better suited to linking on a US or North American LUGs article. There're seperate articles for LUGs in India, Ireland, etc here at wikipedia, so if someone creates such an article for the US, North America, or some other better-suited locality, please feel free to move the link.

I just removed two things:
- A Wiki link to a particular LUG. This doesn't belong here- this isn't a LUG list. There are plenty of those out there, please use them and link to them from here. Please don't put your LUG on this page. It's simply not encyclopedic.
- A complaint about one such list. I sympathize that it is out of date, as I have experienced that as well. That said, an encyclopedia article is not the correct place for such requests or discussions. This talk page is the correct location for that.

Could you perhaps then remove the link totally? You would not still keep a reference to blood-letting as if it were a current medical treatment. Outdated information can sometimes be dangerous. In this case, it is causing some concern to people who can no longer take on the effort of responding. We (Ottawa LUG) would not be bothered if the link were usable i.e., we could change information. As far as we can determine, it is not possible to contact the owners of the site. Nashjc —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 15:00, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
- It might be good to make an indication next to the link that the link might not be authoritative. OCLUG has no ties to that organization - we discovered them by looking up LUG on Wikipedia - they have taken it upon themselves to list us and now they won't respond. --bjb of OCLUG —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.217.112.114 (talk) 14:12, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
I think it would be helpful to note that as Linux is maturing so is the LUG. In our LUG (Provo Linux Users Group: http://www.plug.org) the membership is by far mostly professional. Our presentations typically follow a business focus as well. There are over 400 members on the mailing list, most of them are considered 'advanced' users. We aren't opposed to helping new Linux users, but we are more of a professional guild than a group for new users. Has anyone else seen a similar trend? 64.0.193.134 (talk) 19:11, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
And what about user groups within organizations such as government offices? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jradetzky (talk • contribs) 03:19, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
