[edit] Joünié
Delete.This description of a lebanese city, Jounieh, is more of a tourist brochure than a real article (see for yourself). So I started a stub article Jounieh that would have a more encyclopedic content (in addition to a more suitable name) 500LL 16:26, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Unless you have evidence that this is a copyright violation, this looks more like a candidate for redirect than deletion. Be bold. Rossami (talk) 18:39, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- After making a Google search, I found out that it is taken from this site. But this is not the only problem: It's content is not encyclopedy-like (read it for yourself), it's like taken from a touristic brochure.
- Now marked as a copyvio. That is a deletable offense (but should be reported on Wikipedia:Copyright problems, not here). The fact that the original version was poorly written, however, is not usually considered a good argument for deletion. More often that not, that's cause for {{cleanup}}. Thanks for finding the source. Rossami (talk) 04:13, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
