[edit] Online Questionnaire Design
This article is a how-to manual - not an encyclopedic article. Born2x 17:28, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as above. Clearly a "how-to" guide, which is unsuitable for Wikipedia as described at "Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information". I added a proposed deletion template to the article, which was removed by the creator. EALacey 17:32, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

- I disagree, this page is a brief overview of online questionnaire design. It is not simply a how-to guide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.100.37.182 (talk • contribs) 16:50, 28 March 2007

- Comment. My objection to the article is not with its quality, but with its nature. It consists of statements about how an online questionnaire ought to be designed, which makes it simply unsuitable for Wikipedia. Wikipedia could include an article discussing principles which reliable sources had proposed for questionnaire design, with full attribution. However, an article based on principles devised by the authors fails Wikipedia:No original research. Have you considered writing your article on Wikibooks, which includes how-to guides?
