[edit] Western australia wildflowers

Western australia wildflowers (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This article advertises Pemberton Discovery Tours and says very little about wildflowers. Additionally the Flora of Australia article is the best place for information on flowers. Article should be deleted, has no verified information to be added to any other article. Suicidalhamster 13:44, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Not very competent spam (the author didn't even include a link to the PDT Web site), but spam nonetheless. Lacks encyclopedic information, as the nom pointed out. I doubt that Wikitravel would want it. Deor 15:27, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Flora of Australia. Concur with the foregoing comments. If there is any salvagable info, I would merged it. --Evb-wiki 17:05, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Redirect to Flora of Australia. It might be worthwhile to create a redirect for Western Australia wildflowers as well. Capitalistroadster 01:54, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect Per Capital. Twenty Years 05:02, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect - an apparent advertising attempt but the title is something people might search for. Flora of Australia about covers it. Euryalus 07:39, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete 100% advertising(WP:CSD#G11 even) wouldnt redirect, title is nonsense wouldnt be a normal searched for item, Western Australian Wildflowers or Wildflowers of Western Australia are more likely to be searched for. Gnangarra 12:46, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per nom, however, it should be mentioned that Wildflowers of Western Australia would be a very valid and notable subject, due to the sheer diversity of the flora in this state and the increasing numbers of tourism (particularly from overseas) for wildflower season[1], so would be great to see an article on that subject in future. --Russavia 12:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete While I couldn't find a link, if that isn't a copy and paste from a website or brochure, I would be incredibly surprised. There is absolutely nothing salvageable (no source is provided) so deletion is the only realistic option. Agree with Gnangarra about redirection and likely search terms. This vote is without prejudice to re-creation as the topic is eminently suitable for an article should anyone be willing to write a well sourced, NPOV one. -- Mattinbgn\ talk 12:30, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete CSD G12 Blatant copyright violation from here. (I knew if I kept looking I would find the source :-)) -- Mattinbgn\ talk 12:52, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
  • So tagged. --Evb-wiki 13:40, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
