[edit]The page has met the criteria for not being an orphan. There are links to 3 other Wiki pages:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_beverage#See_also
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-term_effects_of_alcohol#External_links
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_abuse#External_links
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binge_drinking#See_also
The last note was "This article includes a list of references or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. Please improve this article by introducing more precise citations where appropriate. (April 2009)".
- I will add more inline citations to make the content more credible. Thanks.
Hi Athenak,
I do not feel that See Also/External Links count as "meaningful links" as mentioned in the page on Orphanage. Let's discuss this article on its discussion page. I think that meaningful links are perfectly creatable for this article, and that there is a wider range of linkable pages than simply alcohol-related ones (some of which do not seem relevant). --James Chenery (talk) 21:12, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit]{{helpme}} How come I don't see this wiki page in the cleanup list? What can I do to clean up the page?
You said the links are not meaningful, but there are very few 'anti binge drinking' wiki pages. I feel that all the links I've included are relevant, especially in terms of binge drinking. How should I move forward to deorphan this page then, if there are no other resources? Can you help me? Thanks. (58.185.82.114 (talk) 06:50, 8 June 2009 (UTC))
- Can you please be more specific about the page you want to clean up ??, and the general clean up tag is added like this {{cleanup}} MaenK.A.Talk 09:36, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- The tag that says "This article may require cleanup" is nothing to do with the cleanup campaign itself. These tags are added as suggestions for improvement, and the links on the tag give ideas. Anyone can add whatever tags that they might think appropriate; see Wikipedia:Responsible tagging.
- In the specific case of Get Your Sexy Back, I see from the history that the tags were added by James Chenery (talk · contribs) - so I suggest that you ask them for more information about what changes might be required.
- You can also suggest an article for cleanup - see Wikipedia:Cleanup process.
- An article is an orphan if it has less than 2 pages linking to it. It should be relatively easy to fulfill this requirement - for example, there is List of alcohol-related topics.
- Good luck with it, Chzz ► 10:23, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
Hi Athenak,
I will take a look at it tonight after work. I added the cleanup tag because during the discussion on whether or not the article should be speedily deleted, more experienced editor(s) commented that while they believed that the article had established sufficient notability (though be aware that this could be challenged in the future, and could be merged, too), they also stated that "the article read like an advertisement". I am not sure what changes the editors would to see to change this article from "an article which promotes a cause" to an "article about a public initiative". WP:SOAP Anyway, let us worry about that after the orphan tag. -James Chenery (talk) 03:28, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
- I have been wading through the alcohol related pages, and they could really do with a wikiproject of their own. The pages are out of sync, need merges, section merges, internationalisation, etcetera, and there is indeed a big gap where it comes to "dealing with alcohol".
How about contributing to:
- Alcoholic beverages#Government regulation The current section overly focuses on drinking prohibition, rather than having a spectrum of government activities to regulate consumption, such as an anti-binge drinking campaign. ;)
- Also [Alcoholism#Politics and public health]] would be another good place to contribute and link to.

Hi James, thanks for de-orphaning the page and giving me suggestions.
Please do not delete the page I am still working to revise the text so it sounds more like an encyclopedia. Thanks!
Also, how can I make the image of the logo bigger as it is quite small.

hi, are you working for APB? please be aware of conflict of interest issues. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.186.10.252 (talk) 08:34, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
hello, I am not working for APB, I am a student at Singapore Management University, you may verify this from my email athena.kang.2006@business.smu.edu.sg
I got to learn about the Get Your Sexy Back program from my friends, and I am interested about it so I wanted to help contribute since there was a page done up already. Is this considered a conflict of interest? Athenak (talk) 03:24, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, for the page on Edward Boustead and Boustead Singapore Limited, who will be reviewing the articles? I'm unable to view the two articles on the Wikipedia search engine when I enter the word "Boustead", is it because they are new unreviewed articles? thank you!
