Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ozone depletion theory

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page was seemingly set up by Ed Poor to present the views of Fred Singer, a detractor of the accepted theory that CFC's are causing Ozone depletion. These arguments are WELL covered in other articles on ozone such as ozone depletion, Fred Singer and others. This page presents nothing of value to wiki and I would argue serves only to create controversy where there is none. The page should be a redirect to Ozone depletion and if Mr.Poor wants to present the views of Singer that should be done on either the ozone depletion page or the Singer page, not here in effort to confer false legitimacy and avoid the eyes of editors. Furthermore, all the main substance of the page is one big cut-n-paste from a website. --Deglr6328 07:36, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • Go ahead and make the redirect yourself, it's much faster than putting the article on vfd. Ordinary editors are allowed to make redirects. I agree that ozone depletion theory isn't a very good article & a redirect is appropriate. Have at it, Wile E. Heresiarch 08:39, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
    • Hmmm, ok then, we'll see what happens I guess....done. Should I remove this VFD then? --Deglr6328 08:47, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
      • Well, I would suggest just leaving this discussion in place so others can see what happened (otherwise the discussion just disappears off the vfd page & people wonder). This discussion will scroll off in a few days anyway. Regards, Wile E. Heresiarch 16:20, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
