Speedy deletion nomination of World Health Innovation Network


A tag has been placed on World Health Innovation Network, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. OnionRing (talk) 18:36, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Status and Advice
The organization is probably notable, but the article was almost entirely an extensive description of what it hopes to do in the future. That is is appropriate content for a fund-raising brochure, but not for an encyclopedia article. Most o the remainder was an extensive list of staff and their qualifications. That is appropriate content for an organization's web site, but not for an encyclopedia article.

I also note that your user name indicated that you are likely to be connected with the organization. If so, I need to acquaint you with our policies on WP:Conflict of Interest, and our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure. If you wish to try rewriting this article, the only acceptable way to do so is in Draft space through the WP:Articles for creation process. If you do that, please bear in mind that it is vey rare that a person closely connected with an organization has the necessary degree of objectivity to write an acceptable article.
