AfC notification: Draft:Barre Center for Buddhist Studies has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Barre Center for Buddhist Studies. Thanks! asilvering (talk) 06:51, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I also added this response to your talk page. Thank you for your help!

Your question: is there any newspaper coverage?

Response: While there are the substantial profiles in magazines, I don't believe there is anything quite so extensive about the Center itself in a newspaper article. That is, it's not clear that there has been any major "news" about the Center that has occurred in the 30ish years of its operation.

The closest I can find is references to BCBS in newspaper profiles of people who are somehow connected to the Center:

"dead links"

fyi, the links you've been adding in articles aren't "dead links" (that's a link to a website that is now defunct and no longer exists), but "red links" (ie, the link is red in the default Wikipedia UI because there is no article there). -- asilvering (talk) 21:24, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I understand that. It was my first attempt to say "this Center should have its own wiki article" since it is already mentioned in many other articles. Thank you for the guidance! Stephentroy (talk) 13:50, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
