Speedy deletion nomination of Residential Curriculum
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Residential Curriculum, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

- Hi @Praxidicae:. It looks like two different versions were created at different capitalizations. I've deleted one and moved the other back to the student's userspace. Jessienmsnyder, I have some notes for you, which I'll leave in a separate section. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:25, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks Shalor. I'd really like to see some guidance given to students writing in this area about not using specific sellers (or "motivational speakers"). If it had been anything other than a student, I'd have requested a spamblock as this is what we typically see from SEO spammers. Praxidicae (talk) 21:28, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- I'll make a note of this and review our training modules to see what can be added or emphasized. I do want to work on improving our training coverage of sourcing, to be sure. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:43, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
Notes
[edit]Hi! I have some notes:
- This needs more coverage to establish how this is a notable topic. When finding sources, make sure that you're using the strongest possible reliable sources.
- For example, this is essentially a self-published blog, which poses issues of verification and reliability since we can't guarantee the amount of editorial oversight. It also doesn't help that the site is aimed at selling services to the reader and links frequently to the services or to places that would sell or talk up the services, which poses an issue of neutrality.
- Some of the sourcing were studies - this poses an issue because a study is a primary source for any of the claims and research conducted by its authors, who are almost always the ones who conducted the research. The publisher doesn't actually do any in-depth verification of the study or provide commentary - they only look to make sure that there is nothing in the study that immediately invalidates it. There are also additional issues around context, as studies are limited out of necessity and as such, we can't guarantee that what is true for one group would be true for all. Others looked to be primary sources in that they were people reviewing the efficiency of a residential curriculum that they have ties to in one way or another.
- This is a notification of an event, which poses issues of it being in-depth. I also don't see where the term residential curriculum is used in the source. It mentions a curricular approach but doesn't specify residential curriculum as far as I can tell at first glance. Keep in mind that using a source that doesn't mention residential curriculum to back up claims about the topic can be seen as original research.
- With the draft, avoid listing examples unless they're highlighted in independent and reliable sources, otherwise it can run the risk of being seen as promotional.
- Something else about the draft - be cautious with detail. For example, the 10 Essential Elements was written in a way that comes across like we're trying to talk up the virtues of a residential curriculum. I think that if it were summarized more, this could be resolved, so I think it would be better to just have a simple list accompanied by a paragraph that summarizes what these elements are supposed to accomplish.
I think that this covers some of the basics, let me know if you have any questions by responding on my talk page or by responding here with this tag (minus the nowiki tags) {{ping|Shalor (Wiki Ed)}}. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:42, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
