Talk:Éditions des archives contemporaines

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted because it is a major French academic publishing house. --SJK (talk) 00:53, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

This page was tagged as WP:CSD#A7. It clearly does not meet the criteria for CSD A7 in its current state. A7 says "any article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization, web content or organized event[7] that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant", I think the article in its current state does indicate why the subject is important (it is a major French academic publishing house). As A7 states, this is a "lower standard than notability"; whether or not the organisation is notable, whether or not the references given thus far are sufficient to establish notability, it must be clear that it overcomes the low bar which CSD A7 imposes.

You have to understand that no reliable sources often correlate to a lack of nobility. And the article does, in fact, not indicate why the publisher is notable. Stating that the publisher is notable because it has published "French academic research," does not signify any real notability. If you find reliable sources that talk about the publisher itself, that will help. Shootingstar111 (talk) 01:16, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

@Shootingstar111: SJK is right here, A7 does not require sources for an article to not meet it. That (in this case; it mentions frequent collaborations with a notable organisation) is a claim of significance, and thus this article does not meet A7. Adam9007 (talk) 01:19, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
