Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2008 Presidential Candidates

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was speedy delete. The article comprised three things, simply copied and pasted into the article: A press release issued by Hillary Rodham Clinton, a copyrighted article published (and not licensed under the GFDL) by Enchanted Learning, and a Yahoo! mail message. At the bottom of the article it handily provided the URLs of all three. The press release is unacceptable content here anyway, but I speedily deleted the article for the inarguable copyright violation. The author's edit history comment when creating the article, which was "Drafting Mayor Rudolph W. Guiliani for President in 2008", lead me to believe that this was not an attempt to create a neutral point of view encyclopaedia article. The article remains listed on Wikipedia:Requested articles/Social Sciences and Philosophy. Uncle G 21:27, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
