Comparison of world calendar and gregorian calendar

Reasons it should be deleted: There is no information in this article that is not already in World Calendar or Gregorian calendar. I don’t think a redirect would be useful, and a merge would accomplish nothing, since there is no original information here. Although each of the articles being compared is notable, the comparison does not meet notability guidelines - namely, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information (statistics). At best, this article only shows how many days difference (one or two) there are between the two calenders. Also, There are no references, and the only article that links here is Gregorian calendar (links).

If this AFD fails, several things need to be fixed: The article’s title has incorrect capitalization of proper names. The language (grammar) is terrible, almost nonsense-like. The colors in the grid are too loud (distracting). The grid is too big to see a useful portion on screen. The grid is also inaccurate: It fails to depict the effect of leap years on the comparison. It may not be possible to fix that using the current format. – jaksmata 22:07, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete More fun to write than it was to read. Author went to a lot of trouble, but this is one of these things that people can do for themselves if they're really interested in the world calendar. February 30 = March 2. I get it. Mandsford 00:05, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete you can say the same thing on the World Calender page in a couple of sentences - there is just no need for a separate page. MarkBul 00:14, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete a simple table like

       Common year  Leap year
March  2 days late  1 day late
April  1 day late   aligned
May    2 days late  1 day late
June   1 day late   aligned
July   1 day late   1 day late
August 1 day late   1 day late
All other months aligned

could be added to world calendar article giving the same information in much less space. Karl 10:03, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
