List of basic management topics

 * Speedy Keep same as basic industry topics. Basic =|= comprehensive. ~ trialsanderrors 09:54, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - I've barely gotten started with it. It is intended to be a structured list and part of the "Basic topic lists" collection.  It is targetting one of the gaps on Lists of basic topics.  But how can I complete it and give it structure if it gets nominated for deletion just moments after it is created?  It's in the process of being constructed.  Please remove this AfD.  Thank you.  --Nexus Seven 09:51, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep I think Category:Management does a better job, but give it a chance. If it doesn't develop it can be renominated. Baseball,Baby!   balls  •  strikes  21:57, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * There might be disagreement about what to include in the list, but the list as a whole is part of an established series at Lists of basic topics. ~ trialsanderrors 22:35, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - Based on the extremely short time the article has been around, allow for organic expansion and relist if nothing ever happens. --Daniel Olsen 02:13, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep, might be a good idea to work out the List of Basic Topics before we start pruning it. As per basic industry topics.  Kuru  talk  03:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Expand this article's introduction quickly so it doesn't get deleted under WP:CSD for lack of context. Delete if nothing has changed at the end of this AfD's five-day discussion period. Kusma (討論) 13:43, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Instead of merely suggesting that someone else do it, it would be a fine gesture on your part if you personally jumped in and helped. I'm in the process of working on the overall collection of Lists of basic topics, and have been trying to jumpstart lists to help fill its gaps while concentrating on the development of the key lists (like List of basic technology topics.  I'll get to the stubs eventually, but in the meantime it seems ludicrous to get rid of something just because it is incomplete.  An incomplete article provides a better starting point than starting over from scratch, which is exactly what you force people to do when you DELETE THE ARTICLE.  Deletion of this type is an example of  "all or nothing reasoning", and is one of the recognized major cognitive distortions.  Wikipedia has enough problems as it is without making straighforward projects like this one an uphill battle.  --Nexus Seven 21:44, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I think we have enough support for speedy keep. Someone please close this discussion. --Nexus Seven 21:33, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * ! Speedy Keep, this isn't bad faith, or in need of such speedy keeping. Although it may qualify for WP:SNOW — xaosflux  Talk  02:41, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
