Hello, PoliWrites,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Meatsgains and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, International Association for Political Science Students should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/International Association for Political Science Students .

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Meatsgains}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Hello Meatsgains! Nice to meet you too! I will go to the discussion page then. Thanks for letting me know!

I posted the following in the discussion page:

The reason cited for the deletion of the page is "Non-notable organization lacking significant coverage in reliable sources". IAPSS is the largest association for political science students around the world and it partners with bigger associations like International Political Science Association and so on. But you're right, the association doesn't have enough coverage. Maybe we could simply put a notice at the beginning of the article to indicate that some references are missing instead of deleting the entire thing?

Looking forward to your reply!

Hello again!

Changes have been made to the page and sources have been added and there were contributions made other users. It'd be great if we could keep the IAPSS page.

Let me know what you think and what else should be done!

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on International Association for Political Science Students, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
