Students Advocating For Equity
[edit]Hi ELSAYMARJORY, I have made a few changes to this article to show you how to reference websites. Some of your sources are created by the group you are writing about and this affects notability. If the subject of the article isn't notable it risk being nominated for deletion. I am happy to help you work on the article to improve referencing, but I just wanted to give you a heads up as to what's happening. Flat Out let's discuss it 08:56, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Now that the article has been proposed for deletion, I would like to suggest you move the article to a subpage in your user space, and keep it as a draft while you improve referencing to meet notability guidelines, Flat Out let's discuss it 11:00, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi Flat Out, Thank you for your help and for changing the citation of the website. How can I move the article to a subpage? and would that mean that the article would be taken offline until I work on the notability guidelines? Also, would it be possible to add or merge my page with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_College_of_San_Francisco? Thanks

- I can create a subpage and move the article if that's what you want, yes that would take it from 'online' article to 'offline' draft. You could add the information into the College article but I think you will have the same problem - there are no independent sources on your group - so someone will delete the information as unsourced. Let me know what you decide and I will do my best to help. Flat Out let's discuss it 23:44, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
The article Students Advocating For Equity has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No evidence of Notability
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. TheOriginalSoni (talk) 10:42, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
