Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Association of Fundraising Professionals


A tag has been placed on Draft:Association of Fundraising Professionals, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

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 deleted without delay.

Reply to your Articles for Creation Help Desk question
Hello, Aalderdice! I'm CASSIOPEIA. I have replied to your question about a submission at the WikiProject Articles for Creation Help Desk.  CASSIOPEIA(talk) 00:56, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

Association of Fundraising Professionals moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Association of Fundraising Professionals, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your page to draft space (with a prefix of  before the article title) where you can work on it with minimal disruption. When you feel that it meets our notability and neutrality requirements, and is thus ready for mainspace, please submit it using the Articles for Creation template on the page.
