 == Appreciate your input on whether Doctors Opposing Circumcision meets WP:GNG == 

 Hi Northamerica1000, I've seen you do really good work at WP:AFD and I wanted to get your input on whether Doctors Opposing Circumcision meets WP:GNG.  This is a new article by the relatively inexperienced user .  On his User Talk page, I've pointed him to WP:GNG and tried to get him to engage on it but haven't had success doing so.  In the box below is my review of the article sourcing as it currently stands.

 All I see is brief mentions and one-sentence quotes from individuals associated with the organization, but not ""significant coverage"" of the organization itself.  Sugarcube73 on his user talk page has thrown up a list of other sources, most of which fail WP:RS as blogs, chat forum posts, etc. or they're self-published PR, etc.  The article itself suffers from COI editing, lack of sourcing, WP:SPIP, and WP:SELFPUB #5 (the article should not be based primarily on selfpub).  The usual remedy is to edit the article and use the significant coverage in reliable sources, but they don't exist.  My attempts to find better sourcing on Google News and Google Scholar turned up next to nothing.  What's your take on this?  Should the article go to AFD?  Can you find any better sourcing?  We'd really appreciate your input, and if you could, please respond at , as that's where all the conversation has been taking place.  Thanks much...   "
