Mythical Stories of Henan

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Looks like somebody put his high school essay on Wikipedia. Some of the stories already have their own pages, e.g. The Foolish Old Man Removes the Mountains and Butterfly Lovers. Timmyshin (talk) 00:33, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete I think this could be speedily deleted under G3 (hoax) or misuse of Wikipedia as a web host (U5). Even if not, it clearly doesn't belong here, as it looks like a fictional story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KSFT (talk • contribs) 00:45, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Everything in there has some form of mention in either ENWP or ZHWP already (Lo Shu Square, empress Wu Zetian and zh:洛陽牡丹, Butterfly Lovers, zh:嵩陽書院, The Foolish Old Man Removes the Mountains, zh:陳橋兵變) but this article is not encyclopedic and WP:NOTESSAY can finish my argument.
 * History-wise, the creator and main contributor appears to be actual student(s?) from Nanjing Normal University perhaps on some Wikipedia course, started this in September 2011 and has not edited it since December 2011.  野狼院ひさし  u/t/c 11:33, 18 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete: For the above reasons -- a dead letter, when letters aren't appropriate -- although I really enjoy the meta- element of it, where the article starts by saying that it is an article full of information. (Yes, the authors are referring, obviously, to a source text that they are actually writing about, but which they do not document.) Hithladaeus (talk) 13:43, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
