Innovative Youth Forum

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:ORG. I tagged it for speedy deletion based on A7 and G11, but the tag was removed. G11, of course, is no longer relevant at AfD. There is a lot of verbiage to read through, but it's obviously a puff piece. I didn't look at all the external links, but I did look at the refs. Most of them don't even mention the organization at all. They mention youth conferences, but not the organization itself. I think there's one that does mention the organization, but it's not really about the organization. It's about a nobel prize winner. I have not done any other research into the organization to see if there are other sources out there. I leave that to the community. To review the article, you're going to have to look at the revision before the copyright notice. Bbb23 (talk) 01:38, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I could imagine rewriting a small article from scratch, just not tonight. Organization seems notable on first sight. Article is a real mess, though. PanchoS (talk) 01:51, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
 * You seem to be basing your opinion on instinct more than anything else, but you have plenty of time to rewrite it. If you convince me, I'll withdraw the nomination. If not, the community can have a go at it.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:31, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. I had hoped I'd be able to say "WP:TNT it and let's write a short stub based on sources" to get rid of the abominable About page we host . Unfortunately I'm a bit at wits' end here. Having (a) looked at all references, (b) randomly looked at a handful of the external links, (c) searched for Gnews sources, and (d) searched using the above WP:INDAFD search, I fail to find enough significant coverage to write anything. I'm willing to change my mind, if somebody can find better sources. Page creator cut-and-pasted from Draft:Innovative Youth Forum and blanked it. I have tagged it with G7.

 * Delete as I found some News, browsers and Highbeam links but certainly nothing for more obvious improvement. SwisterTwister   talk  08:07, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
