The PSP Association

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Minor support group in the UK. No assertion of coverage by reliable sources, and Google News returns only press releases and a few false positives. Delete.  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 18:41, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

 * The PSP Association needs coverage and promotion, and so i am helping by using Wikipedia. I can find more sources after finding out from the organisation. Look at the links below before deleting.

 * Consider the importance of promoting this charity.


 * Except that Wikipedia is not in the business of promoting charities. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 01:09, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia may not be for promoting, however i would like to use it to promote, by detailing a wider community with information on this charity. Please do not delete this page because many charities have it, and they must start as minor charities, to become major ones. As you can see, i have the sources to back up the content on THE PSP ASSOCIATION page.


 * You say,
 * Wikipedia may not be for promoting, however i would like to use it to promote: In other words, you want to use Wikipedia for something it wasn't meant for.
 * Please do not delete this page because many charities have it, and they must start as minor charities, to become major ones: And they must become major charities, or at least notable ones before Wikipedia can have articles on them.
 * As you can see, i have the sources to back up the content on THE PSP ASSOCIATION page: The sources above do not mention the PSP Association anywhere. However, they would be good to use on the Association's home page to show that the association is indeed working for a worthy cause.


 * You are trying to use a Wikipedia article to build notoriety for the association. The problem is that the notability you intend to achieve through Wikipedia must be achieved before the Wikipedia article is created. See WP:NOBLECAUSE. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 13:52, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

I can say that the sources DO state 'The PSP Association'. However, if Wikipedia does not agree to this page, i will comment no further.


 * There are only trivial references to the Association. These articles are all about the disease. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 15:00, 1 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete. They exist, but I don't see where notability is established. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:22, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
