Speedy deletion discussion
editGlasgow women's library is a charity-based organisation. This article was not intended as advertising, simply to provide an online reference point. The page will be edited to conform with wikipedia pages on other public libraries Achilds88 (talk) 13:59, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- The problem is the tone - the article reads like a press release for the organization. Wikipedia articles have to be written from a neutral point of view so judgements like "Glasgow Women's Library is the ideal resource for research", "An innovative Lifelong Learning Programme", "a safe and welcoming environment", "A large and unique collection of materials" are not allowed unless they are attributed to the person who believes them. Good luck rewriting the article, regards, скоморохъ 14:07, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
whether it stays or goes, I've renamed it "Glasgow Women's Library" (it was "Libreary"). Tonywalton Talk 14:27, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- I've declined to speedy- delete it, but it does need greater concision. And make sure that none of it is copied from their website. DGG (talk) 14:31, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Updating this page
editI am aware that there are some issues around the tone of this page, and am keen to get more up to date information about the Library on wikipedia. As an employee of the organisation I see this might be a conflict of interest for me to update so looking for anyone who would be willing to do so, and could provide references.
Redone
editIve tried to cut out some of the extra words that said the same thing several times. I have linked you to the Mitchel Library page. Do they mention you? Can someone tell me why your web site is copyright? Are you worried that Paisley council will open a mirror site and trick old ladies into using their site? Get rid of the copyright" You want people to use the stuff, so throw away 19th century legalities. They are just stopping you from achieving your role. Why has no newspaper or similar mentioned you? I bet they have .... we need that reference. At the moment the impression is that you are self justifying - show those 3rd party referrals. Do note that this is me volunteering. I am a supporter.
