A class essay critiquing Translanguaging, but creator reversed @Rosguill:.s drafitification so we're here. We really need a better process for school projects. @Ian (Wiki Ed): you have worked with this editor, or at least posted to their Talk. Can you help on this? Thanks!

Delete: Obviously WP:NOTESSAY applies here but it seems like there's pretty substantial WP:SYNTH issues as well. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)^{Talk to Me!} 04:35, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - This article was not ready for article space when it was moved to draft space by Rosguill, and it is still not ready for article space, and is not likely to be ready for article space. This essay is inherently non-neutral, but neutral point of view is the second pillar of Wikipedia. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:39, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I'm not sure I'd blame Wiki Ed for this one, as the other articles associated with this course don't seem to have any issues. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 15:49, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
to be clear, not blaming WikiEd as they can't be everywhere. More WP:DRAFTOBJECT that doesn't allow us to return these to draft space where they belong. Star Mississippi 15:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete long and wordy, appears copied from a textbook. Oaktree b (talk) 16:03, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete per WP:CSD#A10. The majority of this article consists of a critique of a different Wikipedia article, Translanguaging, and the rest of it already appears in Translanguaging. I don't know what the article creator was trying to do here, or what their professor assigned them to do, but something has gone wrong with this class assignment if the students are putting their critiques into articlespace. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as redundant to Translanguaging. The same content is there – seemingly added by the same editor, User:TeachingBox. Note that I have hidden the 'peer review' comments with a comment tag, since those are obviously not appropriate to article space. It might have been better to remove them entirely, but I suspect the page will be deleted at the close of this discussion. Cnilep (talk) 02:27, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
