Talk:The National Science Institute

Contested deletion
I think an organisation with over 5000 members woldwide and over 20 different companies sponsoring them (Examples include Haas Automation and Iscar to name just two of them) frankly is notable, and the page was last deleted in 2006. The Group has grown considerably since then. Osarius : T : C : Been CSD'd? 09:25, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Self Promotion
It seems pretty clear that this page was created by the organization for self promotion, and its questionable the organizations notability. One of the major contributers has ties to the group and can be verified by the comment on his edit stating he did the actions at the request of the director of the organization "made the changes that chris boden requested" in edit by Nicpal775 11 Jan 2013

 * In which case we deal with that particular editor, and clean up the page afterwards. As the original author of the article, I can 100% assure you that the creation of the article was not at the request of the organization or anyone involved. Osarius - Want a chat? 16:42, 13 November 2013 (UTC)


 * I'm going to have to agree... this article is written very much like a public relations pamphlet, and if the allegations of "made the changes that chris boden requested". I'm also very concerned looking through the history of the article that staff or volunteers for the organization are actively maintaining this article.  The following edits are of particular concern. Due to these concerns I'm going to go ahead and flag this as self published to bring some extra eyes to this.


 * made the changes Chris Boden requested (Chris Boden is the groups President).  Also concerning the fact that  only contributions are to this article.
 * this edit while done by an IP address is signed fulsy. A google search indicates this person is or was actively involved in the group.
 * Another ip address edit is very concerning as this edit blanks an entire portion of the article and the IP address doing the edit actually is registered to THEGEEKGRP. Zlassiter (talk) 10:18, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

Big rewrite needed
Very selfpromo-y. Doesn't say exactly why they shut down, or any bad things. Seems sus. Would do rewrite, but I'm just a new WP editor. I don't quite have the skills to fix THIS mess.
