At what point is it OK to remove the unexplained "notability" tag from this page?
I've added numerous references, specified country of origins, and called attention to the fact that IBS represents over 1000 radio stations! How much "notable" must an organization be, before it is allowed to stay in Wikipedia without threatened deletion?

The tag was unjustified in the first place, but somehow that is not considered vandalism. However, if I remove the silly tag, that might be considered vandalism.

IBS people have objected to having the article remain with this tag, so I guess my only choice is to remove the article entirely.

---

I'm tempted to remove the "notability" template from the page, but I don't want to be accused of "vandalism".

I addressed the "notability issue (see below), yet the template remains. Should I remove it? (Or is that decision left to someone else? Who? I don't understand why a "notability" issue was raised here! Tripodics 06:01, 5 October 2007 (UTC) IBS actively represents over 1000 radio stations (many of which have Wikipedia articles), holds well attended annual national conferences (and regional meetings), lobbies in Washington re copyright and other issues pertaining to colege & community radio, and has a long and well-respected track record in the field. I added several links to outside sources, to aid in verification. However, I think most of these links are unnecessary and should be removed, once verification and notability issues have been resolved. Guidance on this would be gratefully appreciated, as I have found it increasingly frustrating to have my earnest, good-faith efforts so frequently rebuffed or discarded (without any explanation at all), as I attempt to improve Wikipedia coverage of topics with which I am familiar.

You have to ask the person who put this tag on the page. Parse history to know who put it. Martial BACQUET 22:08, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

{{helpme}} You say that I must "ask the person who put this tag on the page".

Does that mean I cannot remove the accusation, until I find out who put it there, then negotiate with him? (And is he forbidden from removing any accusations he puts on my pages, unless I decide to acquiesce? How are these things settled????! What is the procedure?)

Or can I remove the silly thing without risk of being accused of "vandalism, when I clean up erroneous clutter that was added to a page I created in good faith?

I'd really like to learn what the actual rules are! (And please don't refer me to oyet another boilerplate page -- I've wasted many hours wading thru them, and have become so frustrated that I'm on the verge of dropping out (after having made over a hundred well-researched additions to Wikipedia).

I really need some guidance about the the several attacks that have been made to this particular page and the thoughtful and articulate edits I have made to another one (Principality of Minerva, mostly clobbered by someone named "Gene Pool"). I'm beginning to think these things verge on bias, if not vandalism, yet I do not want to risk censure by simply deleting or undoing them!

Talk to the editor, who added the tag. Wikipedia works on consensus. If you remove the tag, the other will add it again and you will be within an edit war. Talk to him. Ask him for the reasons and to bring forward arguments of the notability. Perhaps he will even help you to improve the article.

That's something you should really do. The article, as it is now, does not prove the notability. It even does not name the country, where Ibs is working or what they are doing to serve these radio stations. Tell us about the work, it is doing. If the single stations are notable, create links. You should also take care of the style of the article.

An article begins with a short definition of the object. IBS is..... Then you create sections with headlines. I would look for the article of a comparable organization and look, which informations are on display and study the way, the article is styled. I hope this helped you. Most of us had the same problems, when they began to edit. Feel free to ask me or anybody else on their talkpage. You are one of us, so we will help you. Happy editing.--Thw1309 07:51, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
