All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging.

Sources

[edit]

Hi! I looked at the two links. The first link ([1]) is a press release, so it doesn't really show notability in and of itself since it's something that you released via a press agency. The second one ([2]) is released through a blog and for the most part blogs aren't considered to be reliable sources unless it's the blog of someone who is a leading authority or exceedingly notable. (It'd have to be someone akin to Bob Dylan or a major editor of a notable newspaper posting about it on their blog.)

I've found some sources that do help towards notability but aren't exactly enough to count by themselves. [3] The first one is a site called "Baller Wives" that mentions some celebrities mentioning the charity. This would be good for a section that talks about celebrities that have endorsed CotC, but isn't enough to show notability by itself since it's more of a brief mention. There's more links along these lines([4]), but the big problem with these is that they focus more on the celebrity endorsing the charity more than the charity itself. What we need is one really good news story from an uninvolved third party, such as the LA Times doing a story on your charity. It'd go a long way towards showing notability and you could use the celebrity stories to help enhance the article. I know that's easier said than done, getting those sorts of news articles, but it's what is really the only thing keeping this from passing notability guidelines.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 11:37, 27 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79[reply]
