Foundation for Family Businesses

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I have concerns this article meets WP:NORG. A source review shows next to nothing for this NGO in English sources; the German name "Die Stiftung für Familienunternehmen in Deutschland und Europa" gives more hits but nothing seems relevant for WP:SIGCOV. Cited sources seem to also fail SIGCOV/independence and this has been tagged with cleanup-pr ("This article reads like a press release or a news article and is largely based on routine coverage or sensationalism." for a year (tag added by User:DGG). Also, the article was created/accepted at AfC by one or more editors related to this recent paid-editing scandal. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:14, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

Comment The worst of the materal leading to my tagging has been removed by ; i would not have used that tag if the article had been in its current form. The article was started by a declared paid editor (albeit an editor using an ip), as can be seen in the article history. Whether this is one of the eds. in the editing ring I cannot say. (I do not think the person who started the deWP article was a coi editor. )�  DGG ( talk ) 05:23, 28 September 2021 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep. on balance, Ithink the references are adequate to show notability, and the article is sufficiently nPOV.  DGG ( talk ) 04:08, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
