[edit] K-5 article lacks references

Hi, Kandy5000. I notice you wrote an article on K-5, in which you describe it as an expression meaning kindergarten, "that receives equal amounts of criticism and support in the educational industry". Can you cite authors who have written books or papers on this topic in which they either criticise or support the use of this term as an alternative to kindergarten? I ask because as a U.S. resident I've never seen the term used this way, nor does any google search turn up K-5 or K5 as a term meaning kindergarten.—GraemeMcRaetalk 16:40, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] NN

I have placed a tag on the article David P. Weikart, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. I did this because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person but it does not indicate how or why that person is notable. If you can indicate why David P. Weikart is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:David P. Weikart. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. - CHAIRBOY () 05:29, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted content

Regarding the article Bernard Spodek ; please do not repost deleted content. The chance that a reposted article suddenly meets the the standards for which the original article is considerably small. Therefore, please respect the administrator's decision. -- SoothingR(pour) 15:47, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

A little more on my decision: Being an professor does not make the person notable and therefore they are subject to WP:CSD A7. If the person meets notabilitiy standards and you can write an article that show why the person is important. gren グレン 15:51, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale

I notice that you are the sole contributor to this article. I came across it because I work dead-end pages, that is, pages that have no links to other existing pages on wikipedia. The article you have written here has some issues:

  1. Much of the text appears to be copy/paste from Here. You should be aware that wikipedia copyright rules apply to text as well as images
  2. The article itself appears to be a series of advertising bullet points for the methodology.(which is what I suspect it is). In that sense, it is not encyclopedic, providing no context for the reader.

The subject of the article, based on Google hits, appears worthy of a wikipedia article. In order to prevent it being tagged as a copyright violation, I have blanked most of the article to allow you to rework it.
