COMPUTER USE AMONGST DOCTORS IN AFRICA

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminant collection of data abakharev 04:40, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. When Wikipedia has ten million articles, this might be a valid subtopic, but right now this is an essay. Daniel Case 04:50, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• Rename to fix capitalization and Keep. Article was created by a new user who is striving to make good faith contributions. Medical issues in Africa (see recent global AIDS conference) are very important and therefore notable. Quality of article is weak but could be salvaged. Deet 12:44, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per title and WP:NOT an indiscriminate collection of information ST47 12:49, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, WP:NOT a publisher of original thought. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:16, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, maybe these data are useful somewhere, but not in an essay that seems to violate WP:OR, has no citations, and only provides one link to another article about a group that doesn't seem to meet WP:ORG. --Kinu ^t/_c 13:41, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge rewritten version with health informatics, which already has sections by region but nothing on Africa. There is a fair amount of useful information here, though the author should be requested to retrieve the references. The presence of inline reference numbers tends to suggest a possible copyright violation, which needs to be checked. Agree with Deet that medical issues in Africa shouldn't be neglected.

• Merge as per Espresso Addict -- good information in article that is worth preserving. ♥ FaerieInGrey 22:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
