Speedy deletion nomination of Scottish Council for Research in Education (SCRE)

A tag has been placed on Scottish Council for Research in Education (SCRE) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

I can only contend that whoever put this here has simply not read the entry. The Scottish Council for Research in Education has made vital contributions to some of the most important educational and psychological research ever carried out. The publications emerging from the Longitudinal Mental Development survey now run to more than 50 ... it is the ONLY study ever carried out where a complete cross section of young people have been followed up to age 80 EIGHTY! Thousands of them. Other studies provided the first unarguable evidence for what has since become known as the "Flynn Effect" ... the dramatic INCREASE in intelligence test scores from generation to generation. The Council also contributed to the IEA's massive 21 nation study of comparative educational performance ... and so on and so on. Quester67 (talk)
