Wikipedia is not a guide or how-to. Survival seems to fall in WP:SNOW territory, in my opinion. Vianello (talk) 22:51, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Delete of this copy and paste from wikihow [1] that falls under WP:NOTGUIDE. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 22:55, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Delete per WP:NOTGUIDE. FlyingToaster 22:58, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong delete - IMO, this kind of appears to be an IAR speedy delete case, as the article is clearly what Wikipedia is not (specifically, an unencyclopedic how-to guide). Jamie☆S93 23:13, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strongest delete - (Yeah I like competing) - Okay, copy and paste from wikihow. wikipedia is not a howto guide. I see inclement weather on the horizon. DavidWS (contribs) 23:32, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Not only is the first part a copy of the Wikihow article, the "How to strum the guitar" section is a copyvio of this page (so I'm off now to remove it). Deor (talk) 23:42, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Although it's a first contribution, copy and paste from other sources isn't really the writing of an article. I clicked on the "move" button to change "pla" to "play", but I'm afraid that this article cannot sta or stay. Mandsford (talk) 00:14, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
