Pension Wise

press release on a non notable organization. If it is notable, it should be possible to say something that does not merely repeat the official jargon of "pension freedoms introduced by the Conservative government)  DGG ( talk ) 03:50, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
 * weak keep - notable in the UK, an editor greatly improved the article with some refs. DangerDogWest (talk) 07:09, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as I see no better improvement. SwisterTwister   talk  07:21, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I am surprised this has attracted delete votes. Perhaps I live in a bubble in the advice sector but I've watched the mertis of Pension Wise discussed at Parliamentary Select Committees, there is a national TV advertising campaign which few in the UK could have missed...perhaps it is a case of 'I've not heard of it so it can't notable?'

 * Comment (edit conflict): I have extended the article including a range of references. I am deferring a keep/delete opinion, wary that helplines come with a fanfare (extensive TV advertising in this case) but can quietly disappear after an initial flurry of attention. That said, the regulatory position on potential longer-term liability may give this persistence, but the FCA website is offline at the moment so I can't check exactly what they said.

 * Keep-Contrary to the premise of this deletion, Pension Wise is neither an organisation nor non-notable. It is in fact a Government scheme, and one that |a simple Google of news sources reveals is very notable in the context of UK policy. -Kez (talk) 13:49, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Has been discussed in the serious press and the BBC: clearly notable even though not a Korean boy-band or a retired footballer.TheLongTone (talk) 15:31, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: The references now in the article are indicative of notablity, but for me the clinching factor is that the Financial Conduct Authority has issued PS15/17, a regulatory policy statement specifically about Pension Wise. AllyD (talk) 14:55, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: I know next to nothing about UK politics or governance, but even to me it's obvious from the current references that Pension Wise is notable. Also, TheLongTone's keep rationale has won this discussion. — GrammarFascist  contribs talk 04:04, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
