Roots of Empathy

Hi, you deleted my page on Roots of Empathy, and I'm not sure why. The reason was A7--what does that mean?

Roots of Empathy is an internationally acclaimed emotional literacy program currently in Canada and Australia, expanding into the US, New Zealand and the UK. Its founder has been recognized by the Order of Canada, one of Canada's highest awards, and is an expert of emotional literacy and early childhood development. Her book has won awards and recognition from childhood educators and advocates like Fred Penner.

I think that your delete was irresponsible.

Try googling 'empathy'. rootsofempathy.org is the second result, and that's definitely not because of SEO--their website is 'still in construction.' It's because everyone who knows about this kind of thing recognizes that they are doing important, ground-breaking work.

I would like an explanation please. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nietzschebunyan (talk • contribs) 19:38, 22 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

If the organization is really notable, then you need to assert that in the article. It was deleted because it did not assert notability; this is speedy delete criteria A7 (articles, point 7). Please read this links provided in the Welcome message and get an idea for what Wikipedia is all about. Thank you, Fang Aili ^talk 19:47, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
