Frontiers (non-profit organization)

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

Doesn't meet WP:N, WP:ORG, and google yields little promise. User:L^BPub 15:07, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep but rewrite The first sentence of this article may be copyvio from this image and other places. However, they do have some news mentions, such as a January 30, 1995 article in The Vancouver Sun and another in a March 9, 1996 article in the Calgary Herald. There appears to be controversy surrounding the group, as mentioned in an article in The WSJ. They appear to be just across the threshold of WP:ORG; "Organizations are usually notable if the scope of activities are national or international in scale and information can be verified by sources that are reliable and independent of the organization", which can be verified in at least the above articles. &mdash;/M endaliv /2¢/Δ's/ 04:06, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak delete. I could not find any sources through google, though admittedly the organisation's name is difficult to isolate and google certainly does not have everything but there are no Reliable sources given in the article either. I see that Mendaliv, above, has found some "mentions" but just because organisations international in scale are usually notable does not mean that they are. In the end, we still need independent sources to meet the core policies of WP:V, WP:NPOV, and WP:NOR. If reliable sources really can be added, my suggestion would be keep and clean-up for NPOV. Otherwise, delete and create upon discovery of adequate reliable, independent sources. Double Blue  (Talk) 03:12, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
