[edit] Global Issues Initiative

Global Issues Initiative (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

WP:CRYSTAL applies, this initiative is a class project that has yet to produce a podcast (their goal). It's a noble idea, but doesn't warrant an article. PKT (talk) 14:41, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention. I understand that we are projecting into the future with a podcast that has no episodes. The plan is to get the episodes up on the internet within a month at the latest. This is a class project and so we have deadlines that will be met. I will attempt to resubmit once the project is officially completed to see if it should be considered for wikipedia. Thank you.--Mlukach (talk) 16:57, 30 January 2008 (UTC)Mlukach 08:56, 30 January 2008 PST

  • Delete. Even if this thing does get up and running, a high-school class's podcast fails WP:WEB unless and until it (improbably) gets coverage in reliable sources. Deor (talk) 02:36, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. A FUTURE podcast? Multiple failures of policy, not even close. --Calton | Talk 03:19, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, a future high school class project is not notable, until it receives secondary source coverage (per above) - Dumelow (talk) 14:57, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete First, this is future, which means the article is non-notable. Second, it seems to fail WP:CRYSTAL. - Milk's Favorite Cookie 21:34, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
