Promotion v. encyclopedia[edit]

I see a few pages for We Need Diverse Books have been removed in the past for being written in a promotional manner vs. as an encyclopedia. I consulted other pages for non-profit organizations when creating this page, but I'm happy to discuss the issue. I'm not involved in WNDB in any way, but I'm also new to Wikipedia.

Thank you for creating the article and welcome to Wikipedia. I've taken a look at the article and I don't see a problem. Alázhlis (talk) 04:46, 13 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sources too close too subject & Article layout[edit]

I'm slowly going through the article and trying to replace primary, self-sourced information with independent sources and information. I'd appreciate any help! (I just finished with the Walter Dean Myers Grant section).

This is separate, but I also think the article could be organized a bit differently. There are currently a lot of 1 paragraph subsections that could be either cut out, cut down, or merged into the "History" (or another) section. - Whisperjanes (talk) 19:04, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
