Nomination of Thyroid UK for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Thyroid UK is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Thyroid UK until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Girth Summit  (blether) 10:09, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi - just to expand on why I did this, you should read the guidelines at WP:NORG for information about establishing notability in organisations, and at WP:RS for a discussion of reliable sources. We generally don't use organisations' websites as sources of information about them, we use independent, secondary sources; since I couldn't find any that give significant coverage to this organisation, I believe that we need to remove the article, even though it's likely a very worthy subject. FWIW, my mother is a survivor of Thyroid cancer, so I know how important this issue is. We must abide by Wikipedia's policies for notability when assessing whether we have an article about any subject however.
 * I also wonder whether you have any personal connection to this organisation (since it's the first thing you've written about on Wikipedia). If so, you should review our guidance on editing with a conflict of interest. Cheers Girth Summit  (blether)  10:18, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
