The article World Horizons Missions Organization has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No independent sources.
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}}

Showing notability
[edit]Hi, I looked at the article above, but could not find a way to rescue it. What it needs is coverage of World Horizons in independent sources. See WP:IRS. If Christianity Magazine or denominational mags have published features about the organisation, they would fit the bill. If you can provide links to these, drop me a line and I will un-delete the page (if necessary) and format the citations properly. – Fayenatic London 13:09, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the help! I have several links to news articles that mention the World Horizons US director, as well as blogs of people affiliated with and working for the organization. I will send them to you if you think those would be sufficient? Kai Troy (talk) 14:24, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
- Sadly not, I think. WP:ORG is the guideline for notability in the case of organisations. I've come across World Horizons and respect their work, but unless we can find coverage in sources as indicated above, they don't tick the boxes at the moment to have an article here. – Fayenatic London 18:49, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
- All right! I will continue to scour the internet and get back to you. Thanks! Kai Troy (talk) 20:37, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
- I have found several more links that show notability for World Horizons that meet the criteria. How can I send them to you and get the page restored? Kai Troy (talk) 16:05, 16 June 2014 (UTC)
- I undeleted the page and moved it to your user space as User:Kai Troy/World Horizons. – Fayenatic London 16:38, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
