Hola Excirial,

I'm Antonia, I know you're a busy guy. Like really really busy. I'm sorry If I have a lots of questions, bear with me here. So here's my story, I've tried to submit a article about a Mountaineering Org based in Philippines in which gives a lot of help in doing community services and environmental protection activities. But unfortunately, just like you said, it can't be approved yet (yes yet, hehehe! I'm gonna do my best to know what seems to be the problem so that I can improve it and wiki will accept it someday) And I'm really really hopeful.(= Can I asked btw what should I need to do? It maybe silly but I think this org deserves to be recognized not only in Philippines but worldwide as well. This org is not just a hiking club but played such importance in environmental protection awareness as well, always ready to provide a hand in every help we can offer for our country. It's been 8 years and it's still growing. Aside from the fact also that one of its members Mon Dysangco was part of Mt Aconcagua (Argentina) Team expedition last year. It will always be a joy and pride for our country, knowing that Philippines is only a 3rd world country yet they still manage to give our country something to be proud of.

I've seen mountaineering clubs here in wiki. It inspired me to this one. I know, I know that SMC just started in year 2004 unlike any other hiking organizations, they've been here like forever. But can't you give a young blood org like SMC a chance to be published? =D I've tried to insert links as well wherein SMC was recognized in any activities, internationally or locally.

Here's the link to the page >> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Smart_Mountaineering_Club

Btw, i like your username. It's pretty catchy, but I must admit hard to pronounce for me =D

Thank you for reading my silly rant. Hope to hear from you soon. Oh and thank you for reviewing my article as well and letting me know that it needs a lot of improvement. I'm challenge to do everything for it to be published. Whatever it takes.

Hiyas there Antonia,

I think that the best possible place for me to hook into, is the "but I think this org deserves to be recognized not only in Philippines but worldwide as well" line you wrote above. In terms of what deserves a page, Wikipedia can be a bit counter intuitive if one writes an article the first time. The issue is that Wikipedia´s translation of "deserving" equals that the subject of an article is notable enough for encyclopedic inclusion, and that this notability can be sourced using reliable sources. From a purely encyclopedic stance it doesn't matter what the subject of the article is, as long as it can pass those criteria. Hence, a serial killer might be notable while a philanthropist is not, and a comic book character might have its own page while a band doesn't. Actually, everything that matters is passing the importance criteria, no matter how noble the subject of an article might be.

Having said that, i would also point out that the age of a group doesn't necessarily factor into this, as long as it can pass the notability criteria. But enough generic pointers, lets have a look at the Smart Mountaineering Club article in specific. The first issue with it, is that it doesn't contain a real claim to notability - see WP:NCORP for that. Notability is generally achieved if an article can be reliably sourced with multiple independent sources of sufficient size, which pass the WP:42 criteria. I see you provided sources, but those are mostly passing mentions of SMC, rather then covering them in depth. The few sources that do give more then a passing mention, have issues with the "Sufficient size" criteria, since they are mostly websites that few people will have heard from.

The above is mostly the main issue with the article - what i always advice in these cases is doing a sanity check on whether or not the pages subject can pass these criteria. Sometimes a subject is notable and needs work, but other times it just won't pass, no matter what. I always dislike seeing people spend a great amount of time rewriting a page over and over, while it will never pass the notability criteria. If you are not certain, first try and find some reliable sources and ask if those would be passable, then write an article based on those if they do (And if they don't pass, you will at least save yourself from spending loads of time rewriting a page) Excirial ^{(Contact me,Contribs)} 22:05, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
