Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Whitefield College
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The final decision to delete was a wise one. Despite the one or two "big names" who claim degrees from Whitefield, the school has very low credibility in the community of Reformed and Presbyterian churches they identify with. Their long association with theonomy / Christian recunstructionism - ideas which have been rejected wholesale by the vast majority of those churches - greatly damages their reputation. The facts of the correspondence school's founder and president who also happens to be president of the micro-Presbyterian denomination that endorses the school as well as the self-created "accrediting" agency are equally damaging to the school's credibility.
Bottom line - Wikipedia is not an advertising service. And the original article was, in fact, a very biased one that turned out to be more advertising and less relevant information. Deleting this "advertisement" was a sound choice.
