Talk:Notebooks to avoid

not sure if this should be deleted yet--MILSTD 20:54, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

What is your argument to not remove an article that is empty for almost seven months? Please note that removing this article does not mean it is a bad idea and should not exist. The only reason is that there is absolutely no content.

Yes, sure - but most of the articles started out like this at some point, and providing the underlying structure seems like a good and proven idea. Populating this article would be a pretty simple thing to do: Just search the forums/mailing list archives and add corresponding notebooks here. But apparently no one is currently able to provide this information or to spend the time researching it. So please do feel free to remove this article if you think it's really necessary, but then you should probably also make sure to add a sufficient amount of pointers to related pages to encourage users to help create/populate such an article. Thinking some more about it, there should possibly be a section about such structural "boilerplate" pages that may not yet be populated, but which would improve the overall wiki experience. If you do feel the need to really delete any such articles please do make sure to add a corresponding note to a related article (or its talk page) to ensure that the structure is not getting lost.
