[edit] French accent

French accent (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This article reads like an essay, and would take a fair bit of work to bring it up to standards. I'm not sure, but it seems a likely copyvio, from the tone. Yuser31415 04:49, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Delete: In my opinion, it seems to be WP:OR as it does not cite references. As it stands, the page isn't encyclopediatic and takes a shotgun approach rather than attempting to define the content. While it does seem to be a copy-paste (or created within a fixed-pitch font), some indicators indicate that there's no intent for copyvio (e.g. writing in first-person). However, unless it can address concerns, I'm okay with delete. --Sigma 7 07:13, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
• Weak Delete per above, and per Wikipedia is not a "how-to" manual. Ohconfucius 09:20, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete – Original research indeed. And not very good OR either. Bubba hotep 12:14, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
• Weak delete, without prejudice. What this seems to be about now is reflections on French phonology, for which we already have a better article. I was hoping to find an article on cultural or comedic stereotypes for actors, instructing us in how to talk like Inspector Clouseau or some such thing. There is a good subject there, and an article waiting to be written. - Smerdis of Tlön 17:43, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
• Supprimer, recherches originales. (Delete, OR). Andrew Levine 18:05, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep and revise some parts are good. The subject is notable. Anomo 17:31, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect to one of the articles it is redundant to: Dialects of the French language, French phonology and French language. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 07:59, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete I just wish we could add French e contraction, created by the same user, to this AfD. It's in the same essay OR format. AuburnPilot^talk 06:20, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete French e contraction too. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 15:43, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, OR essay, French e contraction as well. Sandstein 23:01, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
