Fails
WP:NORG. Cannot find any SIGCOV - all the hits I see on Google are generated by the subject. The text states that the organization has a three-person staff.

I am afraid that these sources are about their books, not the center itself. I don't see anything other than passing mention to the center itself in any of these references. However, I appreciate your research on this.

The magazine article is in-depth coverage from a third party source. It is not about advertising their books, either. As for the journal article, it goes over their last conference in some detail. It is also a third party journal. Another source that I did not mention before, is
this one from tiu.edu, it goes into the history of the center's operation in some detail.--

Delete Although it has been toned down considerably, it still comes off as
WP:PROMO due to the multiple
WP:COI editors. While that in itself is not a reason for deletion, I do agree that the stringent requirements of
WP:NORG have not been met.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 06:39, 10 January 2020 (UTC)reply
Delete based on the reasoning of
Jmertel23. The promotionalism is undesirable but, even were it written in a strictly NPOV way, it wouldn't really seem to pass the basic requirements of
WP:NORG.

Comment - dubious of merits -- This seems to be a learned society with a journal, and holding an annual conference, but we have no article on the journal and no indication of how many attend the conference.
