Talk:Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council

Hello,

In the interest of transparency, my name is David Trouba and I work for the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council, a part of the United Nations Office for Project Services. I am creating this page and am following the Wikipedia guidelines to the best of my ability and understanding. i welcome community input and editing. Thank you.

More in-line citations needed
I see that a few people have edited this article recently which is great. If you have an interest in making this a good article, can you please add in-line citations? For example the section on "reports and campaigns" could do with more references! EvMsmile (talk) 12:32, 27 December 2015 (UTC)


 * The references provided in the "reports and campaigns" section are lacking information on their year (only the year of retrieval is shown). Please check through all references that you added and add the year of publication in the year field? EvMsmile (talk) 07:25, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Section on challenges needs expansion
I think the section challenges should give more details on the challenges that are specific to WSSCC, and perhaps also criticisms of WSSCC, rather than general challenges of providing sanitation services. EvMsmile (talk) 12:32, 27 December 2015 (UTC)


 * I really think we should still have a section about criticisms of WSSCC or the challenges that WSSCC as an organisation faces, e.g. securing funding, for how many years is the funding secured etc. EvMsmile (talk) 07:25, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Buzzwords?
I have a bit of time to work on this article. Can you help me User:Mean as custard to identify words that you would regard as buzzwords in this article, since you tagged it? Thanks. EMsmile (talk) 13:49, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
 * What about "facilitates multi-stakeholder collaboration". . . Mean as custard (talk) 16:09, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
 * OK, will work on that. Do you have more examples? I find it a little bit tricky as I work on the same industry so they don't sound like buzzwords to me (can't see the forest for the trees anymore). So if you can point out more, that would be great. EMsmile (talk) 04:01, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Change name
I'm planning to change the name of the page to Sanitation and Hygiene Fund (SHF) soon, as WSSCC is changing into SHF - although the information is still a bit confusing on their website. EMsmile (talk) 09:49, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I've now changed the first sentence. The new website is now online: https://www.shfund.org/ EMsmile (talk) 05:54, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
