Junk Food in Schools[edit]
Looks like a cut-and-pasted article; notice the photo credit and caption without photo. Even if it's original, biased POV. —tregoweth 06:53, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
- This is a long text which does not read like an encyclopedia article. Delete unless it's completely rewritten. Sjakkalle 11:49, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete this essay. - DavidWBrooks 13:09, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Essay, POV title (no one can want junk food anywhere, because it's junk), and probably copyvio. Geogre 14:22, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. POV essay. Might be copyvio but have not found the source of it yet, and whether its copyrighted or in the public domain. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 14:42, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Needs rewriting and a lot of work but this is a legitimate controversy. After making a futile attempt at arranging the content into a coherent, NPOV article I'm changing my vote to delete. I suspect, although I cannot locate the source, that this is a copyvio from a newspaper somewhere in Minnesota on the basis of several Minnesota towns and a photo being referenced in the article without explanation.

- Delete. Good subject, but slanted and not in wiki format. --fpo 21:35, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
