no evidence for criteria in WP:NONPROFIT as there are no reliable independent third party sources, only blogs and promo material, article is a mere advertisement Hekerui (talk) 12:51, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep & Comment - I created the article, as I believe it to be a notable young organization meeting both standards in WP:NONPROFIT: (a) the scope of the foundation's activities is international in scale, and (b) information about the organization and its activities can be verified by reliable independent third-party sources (not just blogs and promo material). Please bear in mind that this organization was established recently, and further sources should be found within the next few weeks. ConcernedPhotographer (talk) 23:26, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - There is no coverage of substance in reliable sources. The sourcing in the article at the time I reviewed it consists of press releases, blogs, and announcements which amount to press release rehashes; none of which amounts to independent significant coverage in reliable sources. - Whpq (talk) 20:47, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Since it is a brand-new organization, it might become notable in the future. If Reliable Sources begin to take note of it, an article could be written then. But for now it does not meet Wikipedia's criteria. --MelanieN (talk) 22:53, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
