keep - factoring comparisons to one article rather than repeating in individual methods makes sense; isn't how-to |

Line 12:
*'''Keep''' Contraception is an encyclopedic topic, and, oddly enough, scientific studies have been made on what the nominator describes as "how not to get knocked up". This is rather well-sourced. Perhaps the most effective method of birth control is "Not right now, I'm on working on Wikipedia!" [[User:Mandsford|Mandsford]] ([[User talk:Mandsford|talk]]) 13:44, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' I'm not keen on "comparison of" articles, but in this case as an adjunct to the main articles, this one is almost necessary. [[User:Mangoe|Mangoe]] ([[User talk:Mangoe|talk]]) 14:00, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
*'''Strong keep''' Since there are many methods of contraception/birth control, with a common goal but different characteristics, it is important to have an overview that compares the methods. The comparison is too large to include in [[Birth control]]. To include this information in the articles on specific methods (to show how method x compares to others) would mean a lot of duplication (reader looking at several articles would have the same material to skim multiple times, harder to maintain, etc.). Factoring the comparison information into one article makes sense.
:I don't see much of anything that is how to in the article either in terms of content (e.g. it does not cover how to select a method), or style. Perhaps you could raise specific concerns in the articles talk page? [[User:Zodon|Zodon]] ([[User talk:Zodon|talk]]) 05:23, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
