Sustainable food systems on college campuses

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Student essay rather than encyclopedia article. &mdash; RHaworth 09:29, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. Per nom. The article as referenced is a synthesis of unrelated (albeit similar) college student group websites, and the subject doesn't appear to have any independent coverage. The material could be added to the articles for the colleges, perhaps. Definitely a well-written essay, but not suitable for the encyclopedia in this format.

 * Delete I am inclined to believe that an article on "Sustainable Food Systems", currently a redirect to Sustainability merits an article with a subsection containing the general idea of this article, but what I fail to see here is encyclopedic content. As is often the case with articles containing prepositional phrases in the title, this article is not entirely about the subject it proposes to describe; there is no direct discussion of what makes "sustainable food system on college campuses" a finite subject matter, different entirely from a possible article on "sustainable food systems". Putting aside the argumentative structure of the content, the article must assert that "sustainable foods systems on college campuses" is a distinct phenomenon that has been covered by outside sources. Merely picking sources for each individual system at a university or picking sources on sustainable food systems in general does not keep this article from being Original Research.

 * Delete an essay: problems with original research and synthesis. Apparently an assignment from a class requiring students create sustainability-related articles (see others here). -- B figura  (talk) 15:38, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Sustainable Food is a topic for an article.  This level fo specificity, however, is not.  Bradjamesbrown (talk) 05:34, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
