 * Delete Wikipedia is not a HOWTO guide Mayalld (talk) 16:14, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. How-to. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 16:20, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - What does refer to? Does that mean how-to pages are allowed on Wikipedia?  Anti  venin  16:29, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Note that this refers to pages in the Wikipedia namespace, not the article namespace. The creation of howto pages that tell people how to do things in wikipedia, in the wikipedia namespace is allowed. The creation of howto articles in the article space isn't.

 * Comment - Ah yes. I see what you're talking about. Thanks for the reply! Anti  venin  16:38, 30 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete Apparent cut and paste from instruction manual without any thought. It is not even clear to which motors it is applied. BTW, an additional reason to delete is possible copyright violation. - 7-bubёn >t 17:24, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per Mayalld. Also, the non-specificity of the content would seem to be more harmful than helpful in some cases—for instance, it would be nice to know the type of motor to which the article is referring.  Is this Internal combustion engine maintenance?  DC electric motor maintenance?  Trolling motor maintenance?  Also, if the article is to be kept, it would need a copyedit inclusion as the article reads like a process diagram.  — Archon Magnus (Talk 21:07, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per the above. Given the other problems, doesn't even seem to be worth saving at Wikibooks. Anaxial (talk) 23:50, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as a misplaced how-to. Alexius08 (talk) 02:39, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
