[edit] Notability

This NGO seems to be notable enough because there are numerous publications about it (a few of them are cited in the article).Biophys 01:19, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Does not mean it can be used as reliable source. It is not - if anything it is a racist hate website financed by radical groups in the West.--Ram2006 15:10, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Not only it is reliable source (please read WP:SOURCE), but it is notable. Our personal opinions are irrelevant.Biophys 15:42, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

It is not notable. It is spreading lies and disinformation. It exists for the sole purpose of villifying Russian people, and is financed by well known Russophobes. --Ram2006 18:29, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Internet censorship"

The claim inserted by Ram2006 that SOVA Center "promotes internet censorship" is false, based on the Russian language source he provided. It is for closing web sites that advocate kiling of journalists and human rights activists.Biophys 19:28, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
