[edit]

The Korean link leads to a tangental page about TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), not TESOL the organization. I can't seem to edit that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bill Jpn (talkcontribs) 12:52, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

TESOL Inc. Discussion page

[edit]

Here is the start of the article on a primary EFL/ESL education NGO

TESOL International Association (formerly Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages, Inc.) would like to either update this page or remove it. Like CATESOL, I'm concerned that TESOL does not meet Wikipedia's notoriety requirement. We don't have much to cite except our own publications and website. Would someone please advise me as to how we might move forward one way or another with this page? Btw, I am a staff member at TESOL. Just wanted to make that clear.

Your best bet would be to put a ticket in through WP:OTRS where volunteers with more experience regularly handled these types of requests. Mkdwtalk 01:07, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have scanned the recommended guides and it looks like it has been wikified. I have removed the alert

Merge proposal

[edit]

I propose that we merge CATESOL into this article. I don't think that CATESOL passes the notability guidelines for organizations by itself, but we can definitely mention it here. I found plenty of mentions of the organization online, but it was nearly all passing mentions or citations of the CATESOL Journal. I couldn't find anything that had significant coverage. What would people think about a merge? — Mr. Stradivarius on tour (have a chat) 00:47, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merging makes sense. Is CATESOL the only affiliate with its own page? — Ƶ§œš¹ [ãːɱ ˈfɹ̠ˤʷɪ̃ə̃nlɪ] 01:46, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's the only US-based affiliate that I've found, and the only one linked through "what links here". I can't say for certain it's the only one with a page, though. There are a few non-US-based groups such as the Society of Pakistan English Language Teachers, but they should probably be judged on their own merits. — Mr. Stradivarius on tour (have a chat) 03:12, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

A link to the American TESOL website has been added to the article a couple of times now. However, I don't think it should be added, as it is not directly related to TESOL International, and per WP:ELNO point 5 we don't usually accept links to websites that sell services (in this case, TESOL certificates). — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 11:56, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
