User talk:EPIC Ireland

Hi there, EPIC Ireland is a cultural organisation. It is an Immigration Museum based in the chq building in Dublin. However, I do think that the business is notable and would be beneficial to be listed in the encyclopedia and not for self promotion but due to goal to be similar to the Guinness Storehouse as a visitor attraction of great popularity (we are smaller and newer) but it also educates on the history of Irish Immigration. Currently we are 25 of the things to do in Dublin. (Last week 20) and add an intrinsic experience for someone who wants to know more about the diaspora to Ireland or even for someone who may have experienced it first hand. It would not be possible to list a single person of notority as we showcase several 'famous' Irish people in the exhibition who have added something to the new culture they have integrated with. I would like to build a short profile that I can then add to and develop over time. The museum is a permanent home to this immigration exhibition although some of the characters may change over time. It is my aim to expand the detail at a later date. If you are unconvinced of our addition to Wikipedia please see our website www.epicirelandchq.com. Also I have never listed with Wikipedia before so please excuse the naievity of the profile but I do wish to develop this. Edit: I will rewrite and use less of the words that the press have used to describe it.

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (it is a cultural organisation, it is ireland's brand new immigration museum(awaiting museum status) so we are calling it a 'visitor experience'. It tells the story of 70 million people who left Ireland and made an impact overseas.) --EPIC Ireland (talk) 10:24, 11 July 2016 (UTC) it is a cultural organisation and contributes to society via telling the story of the Irish Diaspora. This is the Irish immigration museum.

We are new but are here to stay and are Irelands Immigration Museum. I feel that there has been enough written externally above and more to justify the notibility. It will take a while to build up an article but first I just need to remove the block. Thanks.

Hello. I'm back to have a look at creating a Wikipedia page for EPIC. Since applying Epic Ireland has changed to 'EPIC - Ireland's emigration museum.' It has received museum status. For this reason I think it would be of value to have listed in an encyclopedia page such as Wikipedia. I would like to talk to someone about writing the article as I don't think i'm certain about the style that you would like it written in. I would appreciate any input. Best, Margaret. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.101.10.129 (talk) 11:15, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
