Moved back from draft namespace edit

I have unilaterally moved this back to article space, since rules (and automated bots) cause problems when trying to add things like logos to articles, otherwise. I am actively adding to this article (as I conduct personal research in the area of Category:Georgist organizations and use the articles to organize the data from around the web) and so please do not move it back to draft space or you will break various inbound links from other articles, mess up the categories, and cause bots to stupidly remove the logo image again. Just contact me on my talk page to discuss, if you have questions/issues. Thanks. --Wclark (talk) 19:03, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Notability problem edit

The sources listed here do not give sufficient proof of the articles notability. It's a mixture of the foundation's own website, the websites of a publisher they work with, the website of a group that calls themselves a sister organization to this one, and databases. These are not enough to meet WP:GNG or WP:NORG. As such, I'm tagging it for notability. --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:57, 25 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Mary Mark Ockerbloom: I appreciate that you beefed up the articles in various ways. However, it still lacks substantial third party sources. The sources that are third party -- i.e., not the organization themselves, a journal they sponsor, a college they underwrite a chair at, etc. -- and aren't databases, appear to contain just passing mentions. (I will note that I have not been able to check the Wall Street Journal reference, as it is paywalled... but a single source, even if hearty, is insufficient to pass our guidelines for notability of organizations.) As such, I am restoring the notability flag the you deleted. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 12:52, 10 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
