Fighting Speedy Deletion
editiFixit is used as a reference throughout Wikipedia, I figured this was enough to put it as an article. How can users know how viable a resource is, if the resource itself is not on Wikipedia? Nat (talk) 19:28, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
Addition of iFixit Educational Collaboration Section
editI am doing an assignment for a senior level technical writing course at my university for my engineering curriculum. This will be a large section (around 2700 bytes) and I need it for a grade.Msn1119 (talk) 00:38, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry, but there were too many problems with your addition.
- To start with, articles should mainly summarize reliable independent sources. iFixit's own website is not independent, and the single citation did not fully support the added material.
- Further, material should be written from a neutral point of view, which means that promotional wording, press-release like language, and business cliches should be avoided. From that, material should be succinct, and a disinterested reader should get a clear understanding of why specific details are being mentioned. Your addition included many details, but did not indicate why this matters to iFixit as a topic. Grayfell (talk) 21:43, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
