Routine Letters and Goodwill Messages

 * Delete. Interesting, but unfortunately it isn't what Wikipedia is for. Erpert (let's talk about it) 07:24, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment I appreciate that we have a new editor and that this is his or her first contribution. Welcome to Wikipedia, Comm212-9.  I think that there is information here that could be included elsewhere, and Comm212-9 can probably rescue the existing (and, currently, execrable) article Business letter.  For a subject as important as a business letter, that one has to be one of the worst I've seen on Wikipedia.  At first, I thought it was vandalism, but business letter has apparently been in a sorry state for several years.  Mandsford (talk) 12:42, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment. I'd suggest moving this text to a subpage of Talk:Business letter.  This content, though unreferenced and somewhat essayish, is fairly obviously superior to some of the text on Business letter itself. (CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT)  As such, it's a content fork; but there's enough value here for future editors to make it worth saving somewhere. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:07, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - original research/etiquette essay; in no way encyclopedic. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  21:26, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
