Hi. You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~ I don't know why you left your message on my talk page, Italian Project Management Institute wasn't deleted by me, and it was a copyright violation, not promotional. I checked to see if you meant The Certification Basis of PM or PMP Credential, but neither of these have ever existed.

OK, I've found this The Certification Basis of Project Management. Of course it's possible to promote a non-profit organisation. If I say "the Red Cross is wonderful, give it money", that's promotion.

Your article did not provide independent verifiable sources, so it was not possible to verify the content or to show that it meets the notability guidelines. It looks like a cut-and-paste, so it might be a copyright violation too. The promotion comes through claims that are not linked to reliable sources. Examples
 * defining all the elements of knowledge that are deemed necessary
 * can also be a useful reference model for university courses 
 * in addition to being oriented to an existing professionalized [sic], they also need a considerable number of adjustments to be applied to the Italian context, yet in fact the reference models and IPMA SMEs have strong difficult to be adapted within university courses and masters.
 * is for all those who want to start, even from scratch, a career in project management field
 * All the claims in the numbered list

 * OK, although I thought it might be a copyright violation, I didn't check, and that wasn't the reason for deletion. As above, you need to give references, preferably in-line, to independent verifiable sources. This means that what you say can be checked for factual accuracy and to confirm that the topic is notable. You need to be careful with the language: if you make claims such as those highlighted above, you must be able to justify them with suitable references. If you can't, rephrase so that overstatement is removed. So the first bulleted example above either needs "all" removed, or a reference to show that it does have all the elements.
