- Delete. Selection by royals is no real evidence of notability. — RHaworth {{toolbar|separator=dot|talk | contribs }} 11:37, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
- Note: I had found sources at: [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/education/6592043.stm], [http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2010/nov/26/christmas-charity-appeal-intouniversity],[http://iccoventry.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0100localnews/tm_headline=kids-should-look-to-uni&method=full&objectid=18967137&siteid=50003-name_page.html], but I do not consider this to be sufficiently extensive coverage. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:39, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
- I'm still hunting so please bare with me, this article should be better in about an hour or so :) Thanks! Pebkac (talk) 11:57, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
Delete The only sources I can find that are reliable offer only trivial coverage.Catfish Jim & the soapdish 12:27, 15 April 2011 (UTC)- Don't Delete The charity has won several highly prestigious awards for the work it does. What else should I look for? Pebkac (talk) 12:47, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
::Extensive reports in the press about them, for example, preferably on a national level. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 12:55, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
:::Is the Guardian Newspaper not a good exaple of national coverage? Pebkac (talk) 14:08, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
::::Yes... assuming it is more than a passing mention. A couple of sentences in a broader article isn't enough. Nor is reproduction of a press release. Catfish Jim & the soapdish 14:53, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
:::::The [http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2010/nov/26/education-charity-supports-disadvantaged-children Guardian] and The [http://women.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/women/families/article4114490.ece Times] both featured entire articles about them; would that suffice?

- Strong keep The article seems sufficiently notable, it just needs a review to ensure it conforms to WP:NPOV Wikipedian2 (talk) 16:09, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
- Keep. Full length articles from two different national newspapers (both considered to be amongst the strongest of reliable news sources), plus coverage by the BBC; two significant awards and one (apparently) minor award. This is plenty of coverage to establish notability. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 18:19, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
- Comment. Thank you for your help everyone - does this mean that I can remove the deletion notice? Pebkac (talk) 23:51, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
- Certainly not. The AfD tag will be removed by the admin who closes this discussion. — RHaworth {{toolbar|separator=dot|talk | contribs }} 11:13, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
::My apologies - I shall speak to Kudpung Pebkac (talk) 11:33, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
- I can't close this, because I started it. It must be closed by a non involved admin. Give it time,
someone will be here soon, it needs to run for a full seven days. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:43, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
