Field trip procedures

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

PROD removed. Unencyclopedic OR by synthesis; Wikipedia is not a repository of how-to materials or policies or procedures or other instructional documents. The article was originally the author's work and was a detailed set of instructions on how to run a field trip; the present version is a simplified set of policy/procedure issues, either the author's own opinions, or summarized from the school district manuals cited as primary sources. I suggested WikiBooks or WikiSource for the original. Delete. --MCB 22:43, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge what is useful back to field trip, delete the rest. Wikipedia is not a collection of how-to articles. --Brianyoumans 23:03, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge per Brianyoumans. It's not just a how-to manual, but it's substantially a how-to manual listing blatantly obvious stuff. I imagine a school administrator would love to point to an external source and say "we are doing our policy by this published method" even if it's a publication of obviousness. But WP is not for OR or how-to. DMacks 00:35, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete A redirect for a merge is inappropriate. The article should not exist in any form as it is clearly WP:NOT an encyclopedic article.  The author may wish to list it on Wikibooks. Alan.ca 04:54, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom. Nothing worth saving or merging.  Mango juice talk 17:53, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Alan.ca, a how-to guide isn't an encyclopedic article. Addhoc 18:30, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
