Talk:Biosphere expeditions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is not meant to be a promotional piece about Biosphere Expeditions. It is meant as a starting point for people to edit and change as they see fit and add relevancy. There are many similar articles about similar organisations on Wikipedia (e.g. Earthwatch, Coral Cay Conservation, Global Vision International), so I felt that a piece about Biosphere Expeditions is justified. Happy editing!

That's not a valid argument for inclusion. But anyway, it's not been nominated for deletion on promotional grounds, but grounds of notability. The Kinslayer 16:00, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

What about the articles about similar organisations then? (Not trying to be confrontational, just trying to understand how things work).

Once again, Not a valid argument for inclusion. The link explains why 'Article x is in so Article y should be in' is not an acceptable argument for inclusion. Other articles are not taken into consideration. New pages are created far quicker than people can look at them to assess them, and many lie there for weeks or months before someone actually notices them. The Kinslayer 16:04, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Understand. So how long do we get to establish notability and what would need to happen?

General notability guidelines can be found here, but as a general rule of thumb, multiple non-trivial independent third party media mentions are a good start. The Kinslayer 16:20, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

OK. We have LOTS of those (see www.biosphere-expeditions.org/media) and I will add some now.
