[edit] OMUN

OMUN (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Prod removed, which said: (1) Wikipedia is not a place to announce or organize conferences. (2) No evidence of outside sources/notability. So, delete.

I suggest speedy deletion because I feel the creator of this article is taking advantage of Wikipedia to announce this conference, which is going to take place next week. S/he waited as long as possible (5 days) before removing my prod, and now may be counting on this AfD to last another 5 days before the article is deleted. Pan Dan 14:37, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per WP:NOT. I've already removed the schedule and contact info per WP:NOT, but even what is left doesn't appear to be in any way a notable conference. As for a Speedy, there is no rationale for "puntative speedy deletion for misuse of Wikpedia server space". On a side note this was Speedy deleted on the 21st of November from the looks of it, then restored.--Isotope23 15:25, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment I know that this can't be speedy deleted according to the letter of WP:CSD, but in this case I thought it might be a good idea to ignore all rules, otherwise Wikipedia would be webhosting these guys for 10 days prior to their conference. Your removal of the schedule and contact info is helpful though. Pan Dan 15:37, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong delete no speedy rationale, and not a strong enough case to WP:IAR here. ^_^ Danny Lilithborne 18:45, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Clearly the editor has found a chink in Wiki's armour. But remove it as soon as possible.--Anthony.bradbury 23:40, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
