How-to guide on electrical safety that per WP:NOT this does not have either a place as a separate article or as part of another one. Should not have this sort of information here but just a link to an electrical safety website - Peripitus (Talk) 13:22, 31 March 2007 (UTC) Peripitus (Talk) 13:22, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and refactor into an article on domestic power safety. While the article in its current state is basically a how-to guide, which Wikipedia is not, it should be possible to salvage this content into an encyclopedic article on domestic power safety, which is an important topic.

- I thought about that as clearly there is a lot of spent effort here. I came to the conclusion that we would be better deleting and someone can write an article on safety from scratch. Looking through the history of the parent article it's clearly a section that should never have been spun off by itself, it should have been deleted from the parent article as innappropriate - Peripitus (Talk) 22:41, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I think it can be easily rewritten to sound more encyclopedic. A change in title will help, once the AfD is concluded. I think it actually is sufficiently encyclopedic, and is not a how-to manual. A how-to article on the subject would go into considerably more minute detail, with --at the very least--socket wiring diagrams, as it would not be of much practical use without. The US-centric orientation of the early section should be specifically noted.DGG 00:00, 1 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
