Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Title 15 Code of Federal Regulations

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was speedily closed as moot. I have redirected this to the newly created article, Title 15 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Since the text here was a public domain source text from the US government, a small portion of the actual regulations, I see no urgent need to erase its history or to keep this open. Kudos to User:TJRC for making a proper article. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 02:24, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, this might be speedy able but not too sure. I really don't think we are in the habit of writing or in this case copying and pasting so we have law information if I'm wrong I welcome another experienced editor to close.

Delete With extreme predjudice (by which I mean fast, not salty). WP:NOTREPOSITORY Mere collections of public domain or other source material such as entire books or source code, original historical documents, letters, laws, proclamations, and other source material that are only useful when presented with their original, unmodified wording. --Savonneux (talk) 00:08, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and completely rewrite into an encyclopedia article. Several of the Code of Federal Regulations titles have articles; but they should be a discussion of the main points and their implications, not a mirror of what the law says. If no one wants to rewrite, change to a redirect with possibilities. Incidentally, the page should probably be moved to Title 15 of the Code of Federal Regulations to match the precept we've set up for many of the other titles.

- Comment That isnt even the entire Title 15 CFR which is wayyy longer, see here. Also no one even tried to write it, it's copy pasta. It can be recreated when someone is going to try to make an article out of it.--Savonneux (talk) 01:06, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, just a copy paste of federal regulations. I agree with the above, it can be recreated later if someone wants to write an actual article. JIP | Talk 05:55, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per other delete recommendations above. This is just one small excerpt from a title of the CFR. I can understand wanting to write an article about the legal requirements relating to toy guns but not just copying regulations in full. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:38, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ without prejudice. This is but a small portion of the extensive text of the federal regulations under Title 15.[1] The entire title probably would easily support an encyclopedia article containing an overview of its contents. This source text is not that article. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:52, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
