Proposed deletion of Voters of Tomorrow


The article Voters of Tomorrow has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: '''The article does not meet notability guidelines as many sources do not focus on 'Voters of Tomorrow' but rather on broader issues of youth voting. Furthermore, the article's promotional tone and lack of balanced content violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy.

The "Voters of Tomorrow" Wikipedia article warrants proposed deletion (PROD) primarily because it seems to contravene several key editorial standards of Wikipedia, most notably those of notability and neutrality. The issues with this article are multifold, extending from its tone to the nature of its sourcing.

Firstly, a significant number of the sources cited do not directly concern "Voters of Tomorrow" as their primary subject. Instead, these sources discuss broader topics related to young voters and the general political climate affecting this demographic, without providing substantial and focused coverage on the organization itself. This indirect referencing is problematic as it inflates the apparent notability of the organization. According to Wikipedia's guidelines, notability requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. If the majority of references in an article merely touch on an entity while covering larger topics, this does not meet the threshold for notability.

Such a standard of sourcing could potentially allow any youth group to claim notability by aggregating a handful of tangential media mentions, thereby diluting the quality and reliability of Wikipedia as an encyclopedia. This is particularly concerning in an era where the boundaries of activism and media coverage are increasingly blurred.

Also, the article is written in a tone that tends more towards advocacy rather than the required neutral point of view (NPOV). It predominantly highlights the successes and societal contributions of "Voters of Tomorrow" without a critical or balanced examination of its activities. The lack of a balanced perspective could mislead readers and does not align with Wikipedia's commitment to neutrality. It feels as though it was written by the communications or marketing team of the organization.

Given these substantial concerns, the article seems more suitable for inclusion as part of other entries related to youth voting or specific political movements, where "Voters of Tomorrow" can be mentioned in context. The standalone article on "Voters of Tomorrow," however, does not meet Wikipedia’s stringent requirements for notability and neutrality.

The process of proposed deletion via PROD is thus appropriate here as it suggests that the deletion would be uncontroversial, provided the issues noted remain unaddressed.'''

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

''' This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. ''' Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:01, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
