Student exchange program

There a number of issues with this page. First, its in the wrong place, it is a description of a specific student exchange program, not such programs in general. Second, it is an ad for this specific program! Finally, I don't know how to judge if the specific program is encyclopedic. At the VERY least, I think this should be moved and have the biased content removed. I think probably worthy for delete. -Kzollman 04:39, Mar 26, 2005 (UTC)

  • I'm calling it under copyvio, see it on WP:CP. -Fennec (はさばくのきつね) 05:42, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Never mind. Closer inspection reveals the site in question is a mirror of Wikipedia. This doesn't say anything for its credibility, though, that they have one external link to a mirror of the article... O_o Delete in any event. -Fennec (はさばくのきつね) 06:45, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, unless someone writes something about student exchange programs in general. (It is a notable topic, but as things are right now we're better off with a redlink.) --TenOfAllTrades | Talk 18:23, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep This is more notable than a pokemon character. --Spinboy 07:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and rename/cleanup as necessary. 8,000 students per year since 1929 is more notable than selling 5,000 books or CDs, or being a pokemon. Kappa 09:55, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep As a newcomer one of the first things I've looked up was Student Exchange Programs. Because I was an exchange student and a Rotex, probably I'll write that article. Maybe rewriting and expanding is necessary. I'm still amazed why you have an article about some kind of pokemon, so why delete it? --Jack in the box 22:35, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
