Talk:Federation of Analytical Chemistry and Spectroscopy Societies

[Untitled]
The Federation of Analytical Chemistry and Spectroscopy Societies is a significant international society in the field of analytical chemistry. It is in the 38th year of its existence. It recognizes many of the bright and intelligent analytical minds as well as brings together members of the analytical chemistry community.One of its main affiliate pages, the Society for Applied Spectroscopy, has a wikipedia page, so this was being added as well.

Could you please suggest what information would better the site to prevent deletion? Mkhem (talk) 04:07, 17 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Please cite references from third parties, the organizations own website is insufficient. Wadeperson (talk) 04:46, 17 February 2011 (UTC)


 * See WP:42. We're looking for substantial coverage of the organization in third-party (not those run by the organization itself) reliable sources to demonstrate that the group satisfies the notability guideline. Thanks and welcome to Wikipedia. Zachlipton (talk) 04:52, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Do the new updates satisfy the criteria or would you like the addition of more third-party sites? Thanks so much for your help Mkhem (talk) 05:04, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Status and Advice
As reviewing administrator, I think its clearly a major international society,  and therefore notable. What it does need to stay in Wikipedia is references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases. The new up[dates do not really meet the requirement fully. There has to be a link from references actually discussing the society and its meeting. There should be adequate coverage in C&E News, & elsewhere, for this. I advise adding this very quickly, before the article gets nominated for deletion by a regular deletion process. (The criterion for deletion is unsourceable, not merely being unsourced, but there are people who do not realize it & will nominate for deletion if they see it unsourced, even though sources are available).

Thank you so much for all of your help. Presently, I have added reviews from Spectroscopy Magazine, the journal Applied Spectroscopy, and American Pharmaceutical Reviews. Thanks again!! Mkhem (talk) 17:53, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
