Everything without a source should be deleted

ECCC just created this article, and I am grateful for the work put into it. All of it is readable and most of it probably complies with Wikipedia community guidelines.

ECCC, Wikipedia maintains its quality by asking that for every statement made on Wikipedia, the person adding the statement also provide a citation from the source of the information. Furthermore, none of those citations should be self published by the subject of the article. Some of the statements you added do not have a citation at all. Do you have sources for these statements not published by the ECCC itself? Thanks. Also, unlike other websites like Twitter and Facebook Wikipedia does not allow group accounts because we like talking human to human, so if you stick around someone will ask you to change your username to indicate that you are an individual and not the organization whose page you made. Thanks. Also come say hello at WikiProject Medicine's talk page sometime. Blue Rasberry (talk) 18:45, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

While everything without a source may be deleted. I, personally, don't think it should be. If they were claims about the safety or efficacy of a treatment, that would be a different story. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 21:33, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Bluerasberry, for those comments. In case you wonder why I accepted it on review it was to achieve this very thing. The entity is notable, but the article does need improvement. Those you suggest are fundamental to its survival. In the main namespace we have more eyes on the article and it will be knocked into shape far faster. Fiddle Faddle 18:50, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fiddle Faddle Thanks, I understand. It is proper process to move this from the "articles for creation" queue into mainspace for conversation and development. Also, if you see other articles about medicine which need review after being created, please post to WikiProject Medicine. Thanks. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:04, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, an organisation's website may be used as a source of information about itself, though they shouldn't be the primary source. For more details on this, see WP:SELFSOURCE. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 21:03, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it is a primary source. It simply ought not to be the principal source, surely? Fiddle Faddle 21:19, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I mean "primary" as in "principal", not "primary" as in WP:PST.

I realise this article needs work. But I'm also completely unconcerned about it. Though it is principally built on self-published sources, I'm in no doubt about their reliability. However, by the letter of the law, you're entirely within your rights to delete most of it if you like. Though please only do that if you have genuine concerns about the reliability of the content. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 21:30, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ECCC: Possibly Defunct Department of HHS

Noticing that the website in the infobox is a dead link, as well as most of the others, I am concerned that this department of the HHS no longer exists. Or perhaps it was absorbed into another department of the HHS. I called HHS's Washington, DC office on April 27, 2021 and the representatives I spoke with could not answer or figure out if the ECCC still exists. However, it is mentioned in past PubMed articles. certainly existed at some point. I'll continue to investigate, and if it no longer exists, I'll change the article to the past tense.Middleground1 (talk) 16:55, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Update

It does indeed exist. My note above is a false alarm. I made a few revisions to update it now that its existence is confirmed. Middleground1 (talk) 17:06, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
