Supporting Our Youth

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A group of programs run by a health center whose article was just deleted. Sourced nearly completely to SOY website. Deletion suggested here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Log/2016_January_8#Sherbourne_Health_Centre by editor that did not know how to nominate it.

 * Delete. I only found one independent news source (Toronto Life), and it was published two days ago. This doesn't warrant an article until such time as it has more breadth of coverage in the media. Mind  matrix  15:44, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per Bearcat's updates. Mind  matrix  21:23, 23 January 2016 (UTC)


 * This is definitely a poorly written and primary-sourced article in its current state. To be fair, it was written in 2006, a time when our sourcing rules actually did not preclude primary sourcing anywhere near as strictly as they do now — any source at all which verified the content, even if it was a primary one, was once perfectly acceptable. However, a ProQuest search confirmed that it actually does have the level of RS coverage needed to clear the bar under the current standards: it gets hits dating all the way back to 1998 in "Canadian Newsstand Major Dailies". Keep; I'll take a stab at cleaning it up. Bearcat (talk) 17:54, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Update: I've rewritten the article to a more encyclopedic and less advertorial format, and entirely overhauled the sourcing — so it's now in a much more keepable state than it was half an hour ago. Bearcat (talk) 19:05, 16 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep per the additional information and sources that have been added here, though I wish there were more articles cited outside of the Toronto Star. 和DITOR  E tails 00:13, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
