Virtual Reality in the schools
The article is blatant advertising - being filled only with information from the individual website and a link there. Seems to seems to fail notability test. Article fails to assert it's importance - is a straight lift from here - and when I attached the importance tag it was simply removed and more information copied from the website. Also see what Wikipedia is not as this is a blatant disregard of this and this again as it is a simple copy and paste job. Craig451 13:10, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Responce from the article creator: When editing the article, I must have misunderstood when it said to expand it and after expanded delete the 'importance tag'. I'm guessing that was for an administrator to delete and not myself. My apologies. We wanted to create a resource that talked about what VR in the Schools is and how it is used (much like how wikipedia has pages on Universities). We didn't consider this advertising since all of our information is free and and VR in the Schools is non-commercial. I can understand however how advertising can be perceived. I do apologize for taking your time, we did not intend to break any rules. I understand the deletion of this article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 150.216.60.13 (talk • contribs).


 * Keep This article seems to be well intentioned, a peer reviewed journal from a University. The article is in serious need of work by someone outside the project to conform to NPoV and WP:WWIN. Crazynas 16:07, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as per above. I've rewritten intro from NPOV. Needs some work on the rest of the article. Tyrenius 18:23, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

 * The apparent actual title of the journal is VR in the Schools; if so, the article should be moved there. --Metropolitan90 06:48, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I may have been over-zealous in listing it for AfD yet once it is more than simply a copy of here and is no longer in infringement of this and this I will withdraw the request for deletion. Thanks. Craig451 09:14, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
