Hello. The reason I've placed the source and notability tags on the article you created is to show areas that your article needs improvement. It is nothing personal. That being said, you should not remove the tags without improving the article. As I said before, you should probably read several Wikipedia guidelines, specifically WP:Notability WP:Verify, WP:Cite, and probably WP:COI. I have no doubt that the organization is important and should have an article. That's why I placed the tags, so that you can improve the article so someone else does not nominate it for deletion. You need sources that do more than just prove the organization exists, they need to back up all the claims made in the article. These sources need to be independent of the subject. Secondly you need to include in the article why this organization is notable, what it has done to receive coverage, as stated in WP:Notability. Thanks for your time.

Hello. Sorry for the late reply, I was out of town. As to your comments, I agree with you, there are tons of articles that are completely unencyclopedic and have tons of problems. When I see something that doesn't meet Wiki policies, I try to improve them, or tag them so that the author can. It has nothing to do with "fairness" that your article got tagged and others are not tagged, there are simply too many articles for everyone to get too. As far as notability concerns, again, I agree with you, I wasn't trying to say the non-profit org was unimportant, I was trying to prompt you to put in the article why it is important. That is why I provided the links above, so that you can improve your article to meet this encyclopedias standards, rather than having a crappy article like the ones your mentioned above. There references you listed are very weak, while they do prove the org exists, they do nothing to verify the claims made in the article. You need more information like the points you made on my talk page, explaining the efforts to remove carbon-14 from the food chain. In short, there are tons of crappy articles out there, and it has nothing to do with your article, their existence doesn't justify the existence of other articles that don't meet guidelines. Please read the guidelines, they are well written and very helpful. Beach drifter (talk) 18:22, 2 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Stable Isotope Foundation

edit
 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Stable Isotope Foundation, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Stable Isotope Foundation Logo.JPG)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Stable Isotope Foundation Logo.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:21, 31 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
