Institute for the Analysis of Global Security

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article has been tagged as lacking independent sources for nearly 8 years now, and none have been added. Google turns up some namechecks, but I didn't see any sources about this group. Guy (Help!) 19:42, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Ok, to enlight the talk, the groups publish a good deal of articles, including in major news papers.
 * Note : I created the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security article in 2009 since it appeared multiple times in my sources while writing the article Africa–China economic relations. I have no special acquaintance with the institute, and don't know its popularity. I also think it's rather good to have article on "think tanks" and academic sources, so we can know WHO they are, which side they are, and take what they write more carefully.

 * Ok, I just sent them the following email. Yug (talk)  15:26, 2 April 2017 (UTC) :

 * Delete. It exists, and its works/people are cited in some news/book/scholar sources, but nothing suggests it is notable in itself. Our criteria for NGO notability are not good, but I'd be ok with as much as a single sentence discussing its importance, significance, etc. In lieu of that, well, we are not WP:YELLOWPAGES... --Hanyangprofessor2 (talk) 05:30, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
