[edit] Latin-American percussion

This reads more like a analytical essay for a college class than an encyclopedia article. Not what I expected when I visited the article. – flamurai (t) 01:39, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. It looks like it is only a personal essay. Zzyzx11 07:12, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Tag it with {{Attention}} and list it on Wikipedia:Pages needing attention. some of the material could probably be re-used in a rewrite. Wolfman 07:13, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, POV original essay/research, article as it stands is un-encyclopaedic. Megan1967 09:07, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• While the subject would be worthy of inclusion, this essay isn't. Delete and start from scratch imho. Radiant! 09:24, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. A cleanup would require rewriting from scratch anyway. What is salvageable, is well-known to anyone who would endeavor the job. Mikkalai 20:37, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. I concur with Mikkalai. And if cleaning up means rewriting from scratch, the article should be deleted. I still believe the proper way to suggest a subject for inclusion in Wikipedia is not writing a bad article about it and expecting others to improve it. vlad_mv 04:32, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
