Article describes a college course with no notability. riffic (talk) 15:03, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Individual college courses are generally non-notable, and no independent reliable sources have been provided. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 15:51, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Generally, I agree - but even if this course is somehow noteworthy (not necessarily notable on its own merits, but worth a mention), and if that can be demonstrated, then I think it would be better to include the course under the USCGA article. I see no evidence of that, however. I do note that several new editors worked on expanding the article - and that the course seems to relate to computer technology (of which Wikipedia would qualify, yes?). So, is it possible that this was/is a class assignment of some sort? UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 13:12, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And the IPs editing the article all resolve to USCGA.EDU, which is the academy. UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 13:14, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the best thing our new contributers can do, if they truly have an interest in learning how to use wikipedia in their educational process, is to first become familiar with existing process and policy. riffic (talk) 13:43, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
