Apache Solr and Rails

This is a how-to and not an encyclopedic article. WP:NOTMANUAL. (The same rationale as the recently removed WP:PROD.) Murph9000 (talk) 05:22, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is a "how to" article, and as such, not suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia. Moreover, it cites no independent sources, and it is unlikely that any exist. Maproom (talk) 07:46, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I added the prod, so I too think this is just a how-to article. Bgwhite (talk) 08:08, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The creator of the article has posted at the Teahouse. Not that it matters in the long run with this deletion discussion, but they claim that it's part of a college course, although I see no evidence that the course requires that a Wikipedia article be created. Because the article seems to be an instruction manual for a college course, it could also be in violation of WP:NOTWEBHOST. -- Gestrid (talk) 18:47, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - misuse/misunderstanding of Wikipedia as a web host for non-encyclopedic content. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:32, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
