If you could guide me on how to better write the article then I'd really appreciate it. Not sure where I'm erring. Would love to learn how to edit Wikipedia articles. T

@Osaidbutt: (edit conflict) Are you associated with this organization in any way? If you are you are required by the conflict of interest policy and possibly the paid editing policy to declare this. Regarding the article, it is sourced entirely to press releases or routine announcements, which does not establish that this organization meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable organization, written at WP:ORG. Please review that page. What is required are independent reliable sources that offer in depth coverage of this organization itself. If you believe such sources exist, but need time to find them, this page can be moved to draft space to allow you time to work on it with less fear of deletion. 331dot (talk) 17:15, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's also worth asking whether Osaidbutt is editing as IP 103.205.125.186 (talk · contribs). 2601:188:180:1481:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 12:33, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Had attended an event organized by them. That's what galvanized me to write about them. I did change the sources to reputed media houses. Do have a look. Wasn't sourced from press releases but from news articles online. Do let me know what else can I improve upon. Thank you!— Preceding unsigned comment added by Osaidbutt (talkcontribs)
Those news articles are press releases or staff interviews(even if published by media outlets), which are not acceptable for establishing notability. If you need time to find sources, I would suggest that you consent to this being moved to draft space where you are free to take your time working on it. 331dot (talk) 09:09, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
