What exactly is the problem with this page? I am not sure why this page is up for deletion again. Is it a matter of needing to include non-primary sources?

I was told by Primefac that I could create another Stockholm Resilience Centre (SRC) wikipedia page as long as it abided to the rules of Wikipedia commons. I did just that and formatted the page following a pre-existing wikipedia page for the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) which is an associated organisation (according to wikipedia). I used exactly the same kind of primary sources as can be found on the SEI wikipedia page. It only makes sense that a page for the Stockholm Resilience Centre (SRC) exists.

If you google the Stockholm Resilience Centre you come up with almost 5 420 results. This is not scant sourcing for the validity of the SRC's work. If you type Stockholm Resilience Centre into Google scholar you come up with over 41, 900 results: https://scholar.google.se/scholar?as_ylo=2017&q=Stockholm+Resilience+Centre&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5

Here is a brief selection of secondary sources which mention the Stockholm Resilience Centre:

https://www.pik-potsdam.de/news/in-short/making-the-planetary-boundaries-concept-work-conference-in-berlin http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/synergy-the-driver-of-integrated-value-in-the-new_us_58e2682ee4b0ca889ba1a824 http://www.dn.se/kultur-noje/annica-kvint-framtidens-stader-har-hus-av-tra-och-grona-artarer-1/ https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/jan/15/rate-of-environmental-degradation-puts-life-on-earth-at-risk-say-scientists

There is plenty of secondary material and links out there to support the validation of this organisations and it's researchers work. Because of their obvious contribution to other wiki pages like Planetary Boundaries it seems to be a worthy organisation of it's own page.

I would like to stress again that the information presented on the page is purely factual information about this organisation, not promotion. If there is anyway to improve it to prevent it being deleted please let me know and I will do my best to improve it GriffithsHR (talk) 14:32, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
