 * Dear AllyD
 * We are really confused about the advice regarding deleting. As indicated, is it possible to recommend an independent editor to profile the Chartered Institute of Development Finance (CIDEF)? The is just to have the company profiled in Wikipedia. Unfortunately, it is not clear how to go about it. Your advice will be greatly appreciated. The company has been around since 2013 and is well known around the world. It has a very high impact journal (Review of Development Finance) which has three Nobel Prize Economics Winners on board.  Any way forward??

Chartered Institute of Development Finance
Your article was deleted after the discussion here: Articles for deletion/Chartered Institute of Development Finance. I'm sure you're not happy with the result, but whether or not an organization is good or helpful is not what affects whether it is notable enough to merit an article on Wikipedia. You should take a look at WP:GNG, the General Notability Guideline, for more information about the requirements for a topic to be considered notable. The most important component is that a subject needs significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. This means information provided by schools that are tied to the organization are not enough, as they are not viewed as independent, and information provided by the organization's website is not independent either. We're looking for secondary sources such as: If you can find coverage of a potential article subject in such sources, you'll be able to create an article about the subject. I hope you find this information helpful, and good luck going forward. —Torchiest talkedits 20:55, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Dear Torchiest
 * Thanks for the feedback. I had wished for a better outcome but it appears your decision is final. The reason why  this organization was submitted for review are as follows:
 * 1. It is the first of its kind in the world which focuses on finance for developing countries; It is unique it that aspect;
 * 2. It represents the professional membership of development finance practitioners which again is unique;
 * 3. It also publishes  and manages the first a very high impact academic journal in development finance- Review of Development Finance;
 * 4. Its areas of specialization are critical and unique to global development- it covers areas including climate finance, social finance, environment finance etc. These are areas the world is slowly moving into both in training and research.  These area are also extremely important to the youth around who want to see  finance for development to be adapted by all countries to combat environmental issues.
 * This is my first attempt as a "trainee" Editor and I suspect that  my attempt  is really poor but the Chartered Institute of Development Finance has huge relevance  for promoting  sustainable finance around the world and that was the main reason why the attempt was made. It is now very clear that  the document required a proper and experienced editor of which I am not.  To be honest I still don't know what the main reason was for deleting it.  I am however certain, from your comments,   that there is something very wrong with the document presented for review.

 * What I did was just a mistake. I have been trying learn more about editing and didn't realize that I posted it live. I tried to remove it but failed.  I hope that you will unblock me and maybe link me to where I can familiarize myself with the rules.  I will like to learn to edit but it is clear now that I am getting it wrong all the time. If the response in negative, I will understand. Ntambo57 (talk) 12:12, 13 November 2022 (UTC)
