Speedy deletion nomination of SWEAT (South West Enfield Action Team)


A tag has been placed on SWEAT (South West Enfield Action Team) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 "Click here to 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, you can place a request here. MrScorch6200 (talk) 22:22, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Deletion
Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. You gave no references to support your text or the claimed problem that parents cannot get their children admitted into their local school.
 * I have to say that this seems like one of thousands of local single-interest groups, and a quick Google did little to change that view, but obviously you may be better-placed to find multiple references of the standard linked above
 * Turning to your comments
 * The National Audit Office have announced that 256,000 additional primary school places are required for 2014 and The Department of Education has announced additional funding of £982 million to resolving this problem—these are national factors, don't make a local group notable
 * SWEAT are campaigning proactively as this will be a national problem next year and We believe that our mission statement of “Local schools for local children” will make our campaign become national next year and Local elections next year will refer to this campaign group—you can't establish notability via a crystal ball. If it goes national, then it might be notable.
 * The local MP David Burrowes supports SWEAT and has been actively involved with meetings on this issue and Local news has published articles and letters referring to this issue—helps, but at first glance doesn't seem enough.

I hope this helps  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  06:00, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * You have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.
