Revision as of 03:46, 21 November 2013
Copy of two articles in mainspace with no differences to the articles. User claims they are using it for a school project, but there is no evidence of this as the article text remains unchanged with only a single paragraph as commentary. As per WP:UP#COPIES.

- Comment – Please keep it for a week for two (when my project is finished) then delete it, as it serves no purpose other than for me to make a presentation of the two topics in the waterways. Additionally, please give me some more time to edit the sandbox. After two weeks, this page should be deleted, for I will not need it. However, don't delete it now; my presentation is coming up and I can't change my plans at the last minute. Ef alt (talk) 14:12, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
- Delete - Wikipedia is not a web host. If this material is being used for a school project, I suggest you avail yourself of the many Wikipedia:Alternative outlets that exist for hosting your content. -- Whpq (talk) 16:29, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Whpq, the problem with this is that my teacher and I have agreed that I would be presenting on Wikipedia beforehand, so I could delete it later (after December 2 - my presentation date), but not so soon. Ef alt (talk) 21:18, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
- Then you need to speak to your teacher and explain why it is being presented elsewhere. Why must it be on Wikipedia?-- Whpq (talk) 21:25, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
- @Whpq: it is on Wikipedia because I wanted to do something original, unlike what my classmates and friends were doing (Powerpoint presentations, YouTube videos, etc). I hope you can understand that I cannot change the medium of the presentation at this moment, though I will avoid trying to use Wikipedia as a place to do a presentation in the future..
