[edit] Children With Leukaemia

Children With Leukaemia (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article fails WP:NOTABILITY. Self-promotion and product placement are not the routes to having an encyclopaedia article. Hu12 (talk) 15:09, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete - Worthy but non-notable. Springnuts (talk) 16:05, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
  • keep, revised article does now at least asset notability (largest such charity in the UK) and this could be sourced. £10 million a year turnover. Springnuts (talk) 18:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
  • keep. This is the largest child cancer charity in the UK. Google News turns up reports on fund-raising activities and high-profile projects (like the BBC report on the new cancer research unit at Bristol Children's Hospital); Google Scholar turns up specific research projects they've funded. The article certainly needs work, but deletion is an extreme measure. --Paularblaster (talk) 15:25, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
comment The question is - what makes this charity Notable. So far, from the article, nothing. I am happy to change my 'delete' view if notability is shown in the article. Regards, Springnuts (talk) 19:21, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
reply: you could always read the links and edit the article if it bothers you so much. I have other fish to fry right now. --Paularblaster (talk) 20:37, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete I fail to see how the content of this article is notable. LightAnkhC|MSG 15:40, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per my nom. Wikipedia is NOT a "vehicle for advertising".--Hu12 (talk) 15:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
  • keep We, at CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA, would appreciate it if this article was not deleted. We are aware that it needs some work and will be updating it soon. The link to our website offers information and advice to leukaemia sufferers so information on our organisation would seem to be a valuable contribution to Wikipedia.(Zukeiz (talk) 15:51, 7 January 2008 (UTC))This Keep !vote by Zukeiz is identified as related to"Children With Leukaemia" and has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • Keep Notable, and can be improved. --Pwnage8 (talk) 19:50, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
  • comment. I've done a bit of work on the article. --Paularblaster (talk) 14:42, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
