Cleanup to explain that the other organizations are NOT affiliated with this one, would go a long way to clearing up confusion for potential readers of this article and for this who have voted to delete based on an incorrect understanding of what this organization is.
367:: I'm deeply uneasy about this one. There seem to be a lot of these obscure institutions claiming large numbers of Nobel laureates as members, and all claiming to be terribly important and prestigious, but curiously they run out of PO boxes in places like Eichstaett or Huddersfield. Looks to me more like self-aggrandisement than anything else. Weak
269:. I think you are confusing two quite different things - an unaccredited school and an International Professional Society. That link is off the one on this article and it is presumably where the author of the article (not me) got the information about Pauling. Or are you all saying this web site is a fraud? --

Arbustoo, you have stood idly by allowing others to be misled into voting to delete an article on the assumption that it's a school. When are you finally going to clean up this mess and clarify that this is an article for an organization and not a school? This whole AfD is starting to appear

The individuals who switched their votes did so upon realizing that this AfD is not for a school. While I cannot assume in this case that you are operating in bad faith, the fact that you have never clarified the nature of this AfD leaves this nomination and your motives in question.

This vote should be reconsidered, as it is clearly not related to a school, a subject that several individuals seem to confuse, including the nominator. If this vote is not recast based on the fact that it is an organization, it should be ignored by the closing administrator.
