Previously PRODed (prodded?), so taking to AfD. Seems not to be notable outside of IEEE and their publications. I couldn't see much independant coverage to show it's notability for a standalone article. Kj cheetham (talk) 21:26, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Pinging Fayenatic london and Andrew Davidson, who were involved in the original PROD. -Kj cheetham (talk) 09:16, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep/merge per WP:ATD-M and the other similar cases. AfD is not cleanup. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:24, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  I'd be happy with a merge, given no additional sources have yet to be found to make it notable enough for a standalone article. -Kj cheetham (talk) 17:04, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment The Society had a 2015 name change. Searching under its previous name "IEEE Technology Management Council" may yield extra results. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 09:57, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete or merge Unless something dramatically changes with the sources before the end of the AfD this doesn't seem notable enough for it's own article. --Adamant1 (talk) 23:43, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Added/updated with new references including one each from Forbes and Agenzia Nazionale Stampa Associata ~ Amkgp 💬 05:41, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Forbes contributor articles aren't considered reliable. Even Forbes says they don't reflect the opinions of the company. So, they can't be used for notability. The other one is fine, I guess. Except one source isn't good enough and it's a semi glorified press release anyway. Generally, you really need two in-depth reliable sources for something to be notable and it still doesn't seem to have that. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:05, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamant1, I will add if I find anything more. ~ Amkgp 💬 06:21, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
