Wikipedia talk:The Heymann Standard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have just seen this. The degree of an expansion of the article was a particularly high one. It represents a true expansion, not a mere improvement, and , and many article shave been kept after substantial, but much small improvements. I do not think the term should be "standard" and I propose to replace it with "level" and adjust the text to incorporate what I am saying here. I'm going to look for an example ofthe modest improvements which are typically needed to provide the necessary N V and RSs.

It's an essay, I drafted it with the Heymann article in mind, and anyone who chooses to refer to this is probably looking for a real sign of improvement and expansion.. !Voters at afd are free to make up their own minds so I don't think rewording is really necessary, it would change the spirit of the piece and in terms of articles being deleted or expanded would be unlikely to have much impact. Your attention might be better focussed at WP:N or WP:BIO. Deizio talk 09:22, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

As someone who frequently tries to do improvements on articles up for deletion --though to a somewhat less impressive degree-- I reworded slightly, but I think in the spirit DGG (talk) 20:18, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
