Archimedes Foundation

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non notable foundation with massive npov concerns. Written as a resume, the article presents no WP:RS other than an official site. No incoming links from other wiki articles, and the bullet-point style prose only seeks to promote rather than present factual encyclopedic information.  Flewis (talk) 13:51, 19 November 2008 (UTC) 
 * Delete possible speedy, written as spam, lots of hits from sites associated with the foundation, but none from independent, varifiable and significant sources. Fails notability guidelines.  Theseeker4 (talk) 15:33, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per possible WP:NPOV and WP:V, but maybe it should wait since the noref-tag just was added and just delete the bulletpointlist? (The name is even used by Standford University since 1990 .) Nsaa (talk) 19:39, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep per these sources, and I'm sure that more sources would exist in Estonian than in English. POV concerns are reasons for editing, not deletion. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:28, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:14, 24 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. Fails Notability_(organizations_and_companies) and does not show significant coverage in secondary sources. The sources added by Phil Bridger include mentions of the Archimedes Foundation, but are not extensive in description. --Macrowiz (talk) 02:11, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, fulfills the notability criteria for Notability_(organizations_and_companies), scope of the organization is national in scale and reasonable third party coverage given in this book . Martintg (talk) 22:09, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I hope someone adds the mentioned sources, because the article could really use some references. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:24, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I've already added a source. Martintg (talk) 00:59, 26 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep, notable enough. --Lambiam 19:31, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
