Redress (charitable organisation)[edit]

Non notable charity. No reliable sources cited. Some of the page appears to have come from an account with a conflict of interest. Prod removed by page creator without comment, article has stood with a {{notability}} tag for over a week. J Milburn (talk) 13:06, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Sorry, the prod remover did leave a comment on the article talk page, just not in the edit summary. J Milburn (talk) 13:08, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep While not a maor player this appears to be a serious and dedicated organisation; which seems to be growing. Arnoutf (talk) 17:05, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I do not doubt the intentions of the organisation, only their notability. If they have not been covered by reliable sources, it is not our place to write about them. J Milburn (talk) 20:17, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I have added links to the charity commission data and 2007 report lots of ghits including a mention in a UK parliament House of Lords appeal document [1] which gives them some notability. Article just needs a tidy up. MilborneOne (talk) 20:43, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep

I created this article when I saw the organisation mentioned in the Torture article. I had not heard of them before but referenced their aims and details from their website which is given as a link. I have no conflict of interest, although they may have subsequently edited the article, most of these have been reverted. I cannot see the problem - regarding notability- they are supported by the UN, Oxfam and other emininent bodies and undertake extensive casework regarding torture survivors and are invoved with sponsoring a parliamentary bill. Many torture survivors would be interested in such a service which is not, to my knowledge provided elsewhere , especially not by the British Government, which supports the rioght of Saudi Arabia to torture its citizens even when innocent- see reference from
