Connecticut Falconers Association article
Hello, thank you for writing this article! I have a few concerns about it and wanted to discuss them with you:


 * I’m a bit concerned that this association might not be notable enough to qualify for a Wikipedia article. That link goes to a guide, but basically any coverage of a company or group on here is supposed to be based on being covered in reliable sources, like newspapers, in the form of full articles and not just things like business listings.
 * A lot of closely paraphrases the association's website. This isn't right for Wikipedia as it's copyrighted, particularly as it sounds very promotional, not like a factual encyclopaedia article.

Are there any extra citations you can add from reliable sources like news articles about this association demonstrating that it's notable? (Those are links to guides explaining this in more detail.) I'm concerned since the article may get deleted otherwise. Let me know if you have any thoughts or questions about this. Blythwood (talk) 21:02, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Connecticut falconers association
Hello Jondarp,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Connecticut falconers association for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. ubiquity (talk) 22:15, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
