From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] AfD for PDP

You may not realize that Wikipedia is a worldwide encyclopedia featuring articles on notable current and historical topics spanning over 6,000 years of history and over 200 countries. As such, we have policies that allow editors to decide whether an individual or group is notable. These include WP:NOTE, WP:BIO, WP:ORG, WP:CORP and others. If you can write the article so that it meets one of the requirements in these policies *and* if you can attribute everything in your article to independent, non-trivial third party sources per the WP:ATT policy, your article will be kept. An independent source could be the local newspaper (a university paper may not be non-trivial or independent), a local TV station, or someone with standing in the arts community. If their article is about your group specifically, it's a good source; just mentioning the PDP in passing isn't enough.

We have these policies partly to ensure that everything in the encylopedia is both encyclopedic and verifiable. If there's no way to verify the information in the article, it shouldn't be kept because it's not attributed. --Charlene 03:21, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Charlene- Thank you for your advice. We do realize these things. We are trying to fix it.
