[edit] Going green

Going green (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Consists of original research and advice. Was previously a redirect page but author has reverted my attempt to return it to that. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete as this is simply a non-neutral essay stating: pollution and waste are bad, here are some consequences, and here's how we can save the environment. Wikipedia isn't a how-to guide, and I can't think of a way to clean this up that doesn't involve turning it into a content fork. (Although I would be open to a redirect to Green Movement or Environmentalism.) Bfigura (talk) 17:06, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect per Bfigura. Fails NPOV, no real refs, mostly assertions. UE. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 17:37, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete school essay Czolgolz (talk) 18:13, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Once again another essay apart of this class. Wikipedia is not for posting your school projects and is not your private webserver. It is an encyclopedia. I urge the professor to use WordPress or LiveJournal or even Facebook to post these next time. Doc StrangeMailboxLogbook 18:14, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete the essay but this pagename should be a redirect to Green politics, as "going green" is a phrase being used quite a bit of late: [1] --Rividian (talk) 18:31, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete original research --Dalgspleh (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete as OR essay. I agree the name is probably worth redirecting, but I recommend it go to Environmentalism not Green politics as "going green" is a very broad term that is more closely associated with environmentalism. 23skidoo (talk) 18:54, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per all above. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 19:54, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Environmentalism. All NPOV and NOR content of this article is already there. Nothing to merge. -- ShinmaWa(talk) 20:21, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete full or original research, not neutral, student essay. No objection to a redirect (which could be protected to stop the author readding the content). Hut 8.5 21:17, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete: Original research. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 00:15, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete by hitting the keyboard with a baby seal. Totally SOAPBOX essay, completely POV filled, unsavable ranting. no thanks. ThuranX (talk) 00:46, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
