The result was keep‎. Withdrawn. Article was significantly improved since the start of this AfD. Moving to Arcturos (organization) as suggested below. (non-admin closure) CycloneYoris talk! 04:27, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ARCTUROS (organization) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Almost all sources provided are primary, and coverage from secondary reliable sources is clearly lacking (in order to pass WP:NORGANISATION). Article also seems a bit promotional, but not enough to be eligible under G11, in my opinion; and is the reason why I brought it here to AfD instead of tagging it under the CSD criterion.

I have added many secondary sources that verify pretty much every single piece of information in the arcticle. If I am understanding the process well enough, this should save it from deletion. Am I right? Pedeiaenthusiast (talk) 20:42, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! I've been at work to improve this article significantly. Significant rewriting, addition of information regarding the organization's activities, and especially using news articles, research journal articles, etc., in place of citing organization's own website and materials. @Pedeiaenthusiast, the issue is described in WP:NORGANISATION, where the concern is that too many of the citations refer to arcturos.gr, when there is plenty of information (e.g. eKathimerini) that can validate these claims. I've also deleted passages that felt promotional and unnecessary for an encyclopedia (Vodafone) or that I could not verify elsewhere (number of students passing through the org).
I believe this should save this from deletion now, @CycloneYoris? What does that process involve? Psychopomplemousse (talk) 05:09, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Psychopomplemousse: Yes, you did a fantastic job with improving the article. I'll go ahead and withdraw this nomination (since the reasons for deletion are no longer relevant). CycloneYoris talk! 04:23, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
