I think you should check out WP:OWN, which may help you understand why other people are editing the Golf course turf article. Ground Zero | t 03:16, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Speedy deletion of Golf course turf

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Golf course turf requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Megaman en m (talk) 20:13, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for attempting to delete Golf course turf. However, it was published, and as such deleting it is not a solution (if academic papers were published on the subject, it clearly has grounds for Notability).

However, what it would be useful to do is indication what the errors are (so that they can be fixed, either by the student in question, or other Wikipedia editors at large). The most useful place to place this review is at the talk page of the article itself; click here to do that.

The entire article clearly cannot be wrong (Golf course turf exists, as shown in the photograph). Even better, would be to edit the article itself (goto Golf course turf, then click Edit). If only some specific statements are wrong, and you can "mark" these in the text itself with the messages listed on Wikipedia:ILT#List of inline templates, and include a comment (just like marking a double-spaced term paper by writing between the lines). For example, add using {{disputable|XYZ is actually ABC}} will display[dubiousdiscuss]—when the article is edited, the detailed feedback will be seen.

Thank you for getting involved with Wikipedia, but please do it constructively, not destructively. —Sladen (talk) 21:47, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
