Talk:The Restoring Prosperity Fund

Contested deletion[edit]
Due the to nature of the Restoring Prosperity Fund's work on current project in Wisconsin and Michigan, we created a encyclopedia entry on the request from fundraisers and donors who wanted to have a quick reference to the Fund. This is not a self-serving page. There are Wikipedia pages for American Crossroads, Crossroads GPS, Americans for Prosperity and many other 527 organizations. We have been featured on Meet the Press, as well as guest speakers on all major new broadcast outlets.
I feel that if you are censoring content based on a political view not taking in validity that this is a real and very active organization that has played rolls in more than 41 Congressional campaigns in 2010, and the Presidential campaigns in 2012.
There has been cited information referencing the organization from OpenSecrets.org regarding our spending as a PAC during the 2012 Presidential primary. We are a legally operating organization filed with FEC and you can check their pages for our filings, we are operate the Americans Education Project based in Virginia for 7 years as a Education Foundation Non-Profit.
What exact is the problem here?

- It's nothing to do with politics, it's all about the promotional language, pasted straight from your website. Please read WP:Conflict of interest: I strongly recommend that you wait for someone not connected with your group to write about it, as it will be extremely difficult for you to write objectively about it.

To the reviewing sysop - The basic claim to notability here is that the organization is a Super PAC, which precludes an A7. I am seeing some basic ghits at this point. I've advised Apgbhenson (talk · contribs) to cease editing both this and Bob Schuman to avoid COI issues. I will attempt to source the article(s), and if unsuccessful I will take them both to AFD. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 22:27, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
- Sounds good to me. I've removed the speedy tag, along with a big chunk of promotional copyvio pasted from the group's website. Thanks, Altered Walter (talk) 22:34, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
