The result was keep. Agreed. Article has been significantly improved since the last AfD nomination. Closing without prejudice against renomination. (non-admin closure) —☮JAaron95 Talk 19:37, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

I just voted keep in the last AfD because the author was willing to improve the article. Seems like the author hasn't done anything. So, I keep my word and renominate this article for deletion with the same rationale the last nominator had. {{tq|Seems to fail WP:GNG. Focuses quite a but on a controversy- perhaps WP:NPOV issues. I can't seem to view one of the sources. Another is the daily mirror, frowned upon per WP:PUS. The third appears to be a government source (not independent from the subject). At this time, on my end, it really only has one reliable source. Most other sources I can find are directly involved with the fund (WP:NRVE). Perhaps a mention at Welfare state in the United Kingdom or another article similar to that (maybe not that one specifically) would be warranted, but I'm not sure about a stand alone article.}} (P.S. I personally have less/no interest in the outcome of this discussion) Regards —☮JAaron95 Talk 07:17, 19 September 2015 (UTC)

- Keep previous AfD was a unanimous keep, a quick search reveals that there is more content available[https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=Flexible+Support+Fund&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#channel=fs&tbm=nws&q=%22Flexible+Support+Fund%22]. The article has already been vastly improved since the original PROD[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flexible_Support_Fund&diff=674465269&oldid=674411072] and subsequent AfD nom[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flexible_Support_Fund&diff=674627253&oldid=674626236]. See also: WP:DEADLINE. -- 009o9 (talk) 16:14, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
- The above two links to the same diff. The unanimous keep was because the author was willing to improve the article. The article has to be improved at some point. No deadline leads to infinity. The deadline is now. Regards—☮JAaron95 Talk 16:40, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
:::I corrected the second diff in my comment. WP:DEADLINENOW (also an essay) prescribes, "...if an article contains false or unverifiable content, you should correct it as soon as possible." Great Britain is not within my area of expertise, but all I'm seeing here is a decent start article. I feel that the subject is notable and it appears there is adequate coverage to write a complete article WP:NEXIST. Additionally, bringing NPOV accusations (I don't see a slant, or a motive for one) in this nomination, hamstrings the editor that you've apparently made some kind of side-deal with for your earlier keep vote. -- 009o9 (talk) 17:39, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
::::Side-deal? Hmmm.—☮JAaron95 Talk 18:17, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
::::: Are you not the person who set conditions on your support [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Flexible_Support_Fund&diff=676834860&oldid=676707218 Here], introducing a 30 day limit that nobody else mentioned? Further, you've simply restated the original AfD reasoning, which was for a completely different version.[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flexible_Support_Fund&diff=next&oldid=674626236] and the article is vastly improved since the speedy made by the same editor.[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flexible_Support_Fund&diff=674465269&oldid=674411072]
::::: In essence, your AfD reasoning boils down to "Seems like the author hasn't done anything." I'm not seeing that in WP:DEL-REASON and IMHO the current version of this article is WP:ATD regardless to one voter's conditions in the previous keep AfD. User:DanielJCooper has offered his expertise to voluntarily offer his time to document GB social services. I see no reason to put time constraints on his work, nor delete his useful contributions. -- 009o9 (talk) 19:32, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
