Speech and language pathology in school settings

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article has a totally unclear lead section, most of the article isn't even about school settings (schools are first mentioned in the fourth section, then never seem to appear again), but rather about speech and language disorders in general, which an article already exists for so this is a WP:CFORK. I am also concerned about possible copyvios as the wording seems to be rather unusual for Wikipedia, though this could have nothing to do with copyvios. It basically doesn't cover its topic, is excessively long, (oh, and the lead has been wikilinked to the moon by newcomers trying to help, but never mind that). Fork issue is the main problem

 * Delete per nom. Any content worth saving can be merged into Speech–language pathology or other related articles as may be appropriate. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:34, 7 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete  per nom. Any salvageable content should go in the main article. Rogermx (talk) 13:37, 10 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Additional comment by nominator FWIW, I think deletion is the only way to deal with this mess. Even if the article could be blanked and rewritten, the edit history would remain. Sometimes you do want this, but in this case, I think that there could be issues with people "helping out" by reverting it back to its current state. And that's assuming that a proper, non-fork article could even be written about this.Mako001 (talk) 12:12, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete This reads like a bad personal essay and like the nominator says most of it isn't even about school settings. I'm not seeing a viable way to re-write it into something even half workable either. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:23, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
