Speedy deletion of C++ tests
A tag has been placed on C++ tests requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. 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  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 page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 09:31, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Let me explain
Hi Baash, let me explain why you the page "C++ tests" was deleted. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a random collection of information. While wikipedia does have wider inclusion criteria than traditional encyclopedia, we are still focused on a core goal, of organizing encyclopedic material. On wikipedia the test of whether someone should or shouldn't be include is not whether it is useful - a phonebook would be useful but that doens't mean we should list everyone phone number. Rather we look for subject that have had multiple independent reliable third party sources.

Please don't be discouraged. If you want to make something useful you might consider making a textbook at wikibooks a wiki also run by the wikimedia foundation that is focus on making textbooks. I imagine that they would welcome expansion of their text on teaching C++.

If you need any help or have any question don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Jon513 (talk) 10:09, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
