This is content that would, in correct form, belong on a user page. It is a letter for help on this book, when we already accomplish the job pretty well with German. I suggest that this book ought to be deleted. Thoughts? Laleena (talk) 13:32, 3 March 2008 (UTC)


 * - really just an advert for someone else's book -- Herby talk thyme 13:51, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol delete vote.svg|15px]] Delete - this is an ad. No thanks. – Mike.lifeguard  &#124; talk 01:37, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * There was discussion about this book last June, see Languages bookshelf, where the author said they could not convert the book from RTF to wiki format themselves but hoped to do so with assistance. Regrettably, with no sign of progress since then, it is probably time to delete it. Recent Runes (talk) 12:18, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
 * And I would like to add LIL Esperanto 1 and LIL French 1 into this VfD as well, since they are virtually identical, created around the same time by the same contributor, and having also not progressed at all since they were first created. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 01:16, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol comment vote.svg|15px]] Comment Why don't you put them up, then, in a separate section? Laleena (talk) 01:29, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol comment vote.svg|15px]] Comment Agree w/ WK - those other 2 should be deleted too. – Mike.lifeguard  &#124; talk 19:17, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

 * [[Image:Symbol delete vote.svg|15px]] Speedy Delete - There really isn't any value to this content existing in the main Wikibooks namespace, and in fact is somewhat harmful to the project in terms of using this website as a webhosting/advertising venue. We certainly don't want to see a precedent for more pages like this to pop up. I don't object to somebody putting links of this nature on their user page or making a reasonable effort to request assistance on the Reading Room pages, but it simply doesn't belong in this format as if it were a wikibook.  I very nearly just hit the delete button on this myself.  --Rob Horning (talk) 16:16, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

LIL Esperanto 1
This one is split off from the above LIL German 1 entry and is nominated for the same reasons. Laleena (talk) 22:50, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

LIL French 1
This is another of the "LIL" language books that are more advertisement than anything. Νεοπτόλεμος ( talk &#124; email &#124; contribs ) 23:31, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
