The first words of one state of the article said it all "this site is created by United Nations Development Programme". Wikipedia is not a free host. We already have the United Nations Development Programme article. We do not need this. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 09:57, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep Capacity Development reflects a paradigm shift which is also highlighted in the Paris Declaration (also in wikipedia) - this is a shift that is reflected in all development agencies, not just in UNDP, including but not limited to ADB, the World Bank, AusAID, NZAid, USAID, JICA, KOICA, etc. Heidi.han (talk) 11:10, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete - most if not all of it is a copyvio. Even if not a copyvio, no refs RS to verify notability. Sbowers3 (talk) 02:31, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Update: article was in fact speedily deleted as a blatant copyright violation, but has been recreated - also with blatant copyvio. Sbowers3 (talk) 04:13, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedied again for copyvio. Sbowers3 (talk) 12:37, 20 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep If the contents on the article are written by those who are creating the article - how to overcome being judged as copyvio? This is a question for clarificationHeidi.han (talk) 11:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC
 * Simple - DO NOT copy and paste from anyplace. Don't even copy words that you yourself have written before. Start from the beginning and write in your own words. Secondly, find independent, third-party sources such as newspapers or magazines that have described the subject. After every paragraph you write, add a footnote saying the source of your information.
