Coordination in CSCW
Not encyclopedic. Delete. utcursch 12:58, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)


 * 192.16.127.10 has removed the VfD tag. However, this is an attempt at an essay, which is indeed not encyclopedic. Delete (possible speedy for lack of any content whatsoever) Radiant! 13:18, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * It does not qualify under the speedy criteria now. The author is advised to look at the "References" section of computer supported cooperative work to see some of the venues where original research articles like this should be published.  Delete. Uncle G 15:14, 2005 Feb 18 (UTC)
 * This is not original work. We are just trying to explain what coordination in CSCW is wrt different researches. Plus we are newbie. and This page will be written by around dozen students. We will add things within next few days under different headings that have been created for other fellow students. DO NOT Delete. asimghaffar 20:22, 2005 Feb 18 (UTC)
 * Comment -- asimghaffar, I strongly recommend that you find another place to do this in. Wikipedia is not the appropriate place. Maybe wikinfo.org might be better. Zzyzx11 21:17, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Concur with Zzyzx. This is not the appropriate place. Radiant! 21:58, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Looking at the current section headers, it looks more like a research paper than an encyclopedia article. Zzyzx11 21:17, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Do not delete. Despite the rough start, the article, in its current form, (though still incomplete) does conform to the 'norm' of other, similar, articles such as Groupware and Video_teleconference .  The article meets the criteria for inclusion in Wikipedia.  In fact, the comments of Zzyzx11 are not correct in regards to the "look" of the paper when compared to such norms (delineated above).  Some of the initial comments (e.g. by Radiant) were made because the article was initially only an outline with no content.
 * As for the content of the work, it is, in fact, encyclopedic, and even properly referenced; the content reflects the views of the establishment in CSCW.
 * The article is appropriate. The article is not original research.  In its current form, there is no longer any violation of the Wikipedia deletion policy ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_policy ), and thus should not be deleted.  Therefore, my vote (based on the article's compliance) is Do not delete. - Funflyer at 08:17, 23 Feb 2005
 * Comment. According to the page history, the previous comment was made by Funflyer at 08:17, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC). Secondly, regarding the comment I wrote above: "Looking at the current section headers, it looks more like a research paper than an encyclopedia article." I made that comment when only the Introduction section was complete and the other sections were completely blank. Zzyzx11 10:50, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment. (Thanks Zzyzx11; I added my sig & better format from my 23 Feb comment).  The article is complete.  It is Wikipedia compliant.  It is also quite useful in the fields of CSCW and HCI/HMI.  If there are any other suggestions for improvement, or if any opinions still exist for deleting this article, please state them.  Otherwise, I see no reason this article should still be a candidate for deletion. --Funflyer 18:59, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Do not delete. This excellent article is indeed encyclopedic.  It is well-written and appropriate for Wikipedia. It is in compliance with the Wikipedia policy.  Keep it!  --Mustafa Taher 12:30, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
