Delete articles
Sfcardwell, Just thought I would further explain the removal of the deleted items you suggested. The first one, the FairTax, is already reached the status of Featured Article, meaning it has been heavily edited and reviewed from multiple points of view by many editors and deemed a high quality article. There is no way it will be deleted or reduced to a summary, sorry to say.. your wasting your time. An article is to be complete and represent both viewpoints on whatever topic it is, right wing, left wing, or whatever. I worked on that article myself quite a bit and can tell you that it was in no way a lobbying effort, nor do I think anyone was part of the "radical right" or trying to obfuscate information. We put quite a lot of work into it to make sure both points of view were represented in accordance with the policies of Wikipedia.

A category doesn't have to be full of good articles, they usually start small or empty. It's a classification system to help users navigate. So, unless the articles would be better placed in another category, leaving this category empty, deleting it is unlikely to be of any benefit. It's not hurting anything but I could see how it could be considered overcatagorization. I left it and placed my brief comments on the talk page of the category.

International taxation
Sfcardwell, thanks for the great improvements on International taxation. I'm working on the peer-review that you requested and trying to make improvements. I left some comments on the talk page for improvements. Morphh  (talk) 12:35, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Just post another request for the new desired name.  Triplestop  x3  01:17, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Re:At what educational level should Wiki articles on technical subjects be written?
I read your question on the Help desk page and thought you might find this section of the Writing better articles essay as well as this essay helpful. SoccerMan2009 (talk) 19:21, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Transfer pricing
I'm so sorry for the late response; I sometimes miss a message on my talk page if someone adds something right after you did. I've looked over the links at the transfer pricing page, suffered through transfer pricing flashbacks from my own past history there (there's a reason I didn't watch that page), and pruned the links as best I could. I removed links that duplicated material already in the article, were low content or simple reprints of oecd, or, of course, were spam. If I went too crazy, feel free to revert - I did it line by line so you can see the reasoning. Again, apologies for the delay... Kuru  (talk)  00:30, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
