Proposed deletion of Visual Extinction Topic Proposal

The article Visual Extinction Topic Proposal has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not an encyclopedia entry; Wikipedia is not the place to store your homework

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Hairhorn (talk) 20:09, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

• I have moved it to User:Matthew Cedar Warman/visual extinction. Please note that Wikipedia is a collaborative project. It is bad enough that you want to work on a side copy rather than the article itself. But we certainly do not need multiple "proposal" articles. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:23, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the move, I think (hope) we have all of our problems ironed out. This is why I wanted the students to use "side copies" within their user pages as their personal sandbox to hone their editing skills before making their changes live. They will be live later in the month. I chose the Neuroscience stubs for them to work on because very little current editing is being performed on those topics and they are in desperate need of expansion/referencing. Because of the stub status, I don't believe that there will be substantial changes between now and when the students make their editing live, but if there are they will certainly incorporate those changes into their own edits. Thanks for your continued help and patience. NeuroJoe (talk) 21:22, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
