Grading in Democracy Courses[edit]

This doesn't seem to be an encyclopedic article, but looks like original research. Among other things, it asks readers to sign inline if they agree with the text's proposal. Thue | talk 22:39, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete made up in school. ~ trialsanderrors 22:46, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, so it is a work in progress. I have removed the signatures section and will address the other concerns directly. This is applied to a specific topic and not just made up in school one day, but a specific resource. Please continue with you contributions so that we can make this a reality. CompletelyNaked | talk

It still reads like a proposal, and not an article describing a subject. Thue | talk 22:56, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Wikipedia is not a petition site. This is not an encyclopedia article, and nothing in it could be converted into one without being totally rewritten. Not that it matters, but the proposal itself (getting an A for stuff like intending to make people's lives better and other vague stuff) is pretty silly.

- I'm inclined to speedy since this seems to be create to put pressure on a professor, but I can't really come up with a good criterion other than WP:SNOW. ~ trialsanderrors 23:44, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This was created by a fellow member of my class. It's not intended to put pressure on the professor - the professor asked us to come up with our own grading scheme. However, I think it was mistakenly placed on Wikipedia, which is not a free host. It has already been moved to another wiki host. Delete. --Alynna 23:58, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete (obviously). Sure, this doesn't meet any speedy criteria, per se, but I'm with trials on this one- there isn't a snowball's chance in hell this will be kept, so why not just speedy it? -- Kicking222 01:00, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment In hindsight from a discussion with a frequent editor, I realize that Wikipedia is not the correct place for this. All the content has been moved to a more appropriate site. My apologies. Please delete --CompletelyNaked 01:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
In light of the author's comment, G7 speedy delete.-- danntm ^T _C 01:49, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
