[edit] Swimming Pool Construction

At present this consists of 1 paragraph defining what a swimming pool is (from the Swimming pool article), 1 paragraph of marketing speak about what is invovled with deciding to building a swimming pool, a series of headings with no content, a see also list of two items (Swimming pool and construction), and - what I suspect is the primary motive for the page - a long list of external links.

I don't see any potential in this for an encyclopaedic article. If there were any content here, I'd suggest moving it to Wikibooks where, by my understanding of their policies, it would fit on their "howtos" bookshelf. There isn't anything to move, however, and so I think it should just be deleted. If for some reason it is kept, it should be moved to Swimming pool construction.

• Delete - don't see the point of an article on this. Cordless Larry 10:24, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, per nominator's excellent and transparent reasoning. - Mgm|^(talk) 10:48, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete in complete agreement with Mgm. Nigel ^(Talk) 12:32, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. MER-C 12:49, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above, without prejudice. Were the blanks filled in, with specifics about different methods of pool construction, this might be different. Good to know that building a swimming pool requires proper project management skills, as opposed to the building of a suspension bridge, which has no such requirement. - Smerdis of Tlön 14:14, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above.--Húsönd 14:42, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• I am still in the process of writing the article. Is it too much to ask for a little patience before you pass final judgement? This if my first attempt at writing an article so if you have any suggestions as to the structure or content, I would appreciate it.
• If an article is not ready for the primetime so to speak, it's best to keep it in your userspace. Smerdis has offered some idea on what we expect such an article to look like, and it doesn't include partial copies of existing articles. If you need a copy of this after it is deleted for another version of this article, there's enough administrators (including me) happy to help you out. Have you registered an account yet? - Mgm|^(talk) 21:47, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
• Fine. Go ahead and delete it. If you feel like it is a worthy article then let me know and I will continue to work on it and post it when it is in a more finished state. If not, please let me know so I don't spend a lot of time putting together something that won't be published. Thanks for your patience on this. Also, I am registered but it looks like I neet to create a user page. My username is "caspecops".
