Going Cyber... Without Going Bananas! (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)

The article is about a workshop being given at a conference. It makes no claim to any significance beyond that conferences and provides no independent sources. (Further, based on the username of the original editor, the editor may be one of the presenters.) It doesn't fall into any category for speedy deletion, but it is extermely non-notable, non-verifiable, and without a clear path for how to make it notable. I nominate with a strong delete recommendation. —C.Fred (talk) 01:35, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• delete not notable in any way. Just advertising for someones workshop. Arevich 01:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Quickly delete - it doesn't even assert notability. --Haemo 01:55, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy This obviously fails WP:N Matt/TheFearow (Talk) (Contribs) (Bot) 02:17, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree that it fails WP:N, but it isn't a person, group, club, or web content, and it isn't quite blatant advertising. So it doesn't fit into any of the criteria for speedy deletion. —C.Fred (talk) 02:25, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep and improve. I believe that, with an ounce of hard work, this article could be improved. If someone were to look at it right now, they would still be able get a tiny, useful stub of information that could at least explain to them what it is.GrooveDog (talk) 02:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Delete In my judgment is does meet CSD G11 as blantant advertising. The tenor of the article is that the workshop is upcoming, not in the past which strengthens the advertising angle. JodyB _talk 02:40, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete, spam. Corvus cornix 03:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy Delete G11 blatant advertising for a non-notable workshop [1] at a non-notable conference [2] by two non-notable instructors [3][4]. Also why doesn't WP:CSD#A7 cover unremarkable events and gatherings? (I figured they'd fall under "groups", but I guess that's disputed) cab 03:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete (normal speed) having been to a few of them, it's difficult for me to see how TEFL workshops could ever be notable, though this article is fairly NPOV.--Chaser - T 04:06, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
