Speedy deletion nomination of Jacques-Edouard Berger Foundation
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2c/Icon_delete.svg/60px-Icon_delete.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Jacques-Edouard Berger Foundation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. andy (talk) 14:00, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

Guidance on notability
[edit]Hi Aline Debusigne,
Wikipedia has its own guidance for notability that may not be the same as your intuitive sense of what is notable. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia of general knowledge rather than an index of profiles of companies and people. Each article needs several independent reliable sources to show significant impact on the historical record. The guidance for organizations is given at WP:ORG and for biographies WP:BIO applies.
For Jacques-Edouard Berger Foundation, the sources you have added may demonstrate notability for Jacques-Edouard Berger and for the artefacts some of the website carries images of, but this does not necessarily confer notability to the foundation. The sources must clearly demonstrate that the foundation itself is notable.
If you are associated with the organization, person or product the article is about then you must follow the conflict of interest guidelines and avoid editing the article yourself but you are free to suggest and discuss changes.
If you would like some independent help you can ask one of the noticeboards at WP:Requests or try chatting with other Wikipedians on #wikipedia-en-help connect.
Thanks, Fæ (talk) 18:56, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

The article Jacques-Edouard Berger Foundation has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Tagged for notability since October 2010, but there are still no independent sources to provide evidence of notability. One of the references is to the foundations own web site, another merely mentions that the foundation has deposited a collection in a museum, and the other is a book by Jacques-Edouard Berger.
While all 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. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:33, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
