Wikibooks:Requests for deletion/The Ultimate Chance

The Ultimate Chance
I want to start out here that I defended the original author of this book, arguing that he should be given the chance to try and develop this, so far as when it was originally marked for speedy deletion he had only just started writing it. This author did give it a strong attempt, but I have some serious problems with keeping it on Wikibooks.

The primary problem with this book is that it can be seen as a sort of advertisement for some software that the primary author of this page is trying to get people to use, and that this can also be seen as original research. I also have expressed huge doubts about the claims of this author that you can make any profit off of his investing methods... well, read the talk page to see the discussion.

This author has had plenty of time to try and make something coherent and more "textbook like", and the last edit that wasn't maintenance or vandalism was back in February 2006. This together with the soapbox-like flavor to the content, and even broken external links make me think the time has come to delete this book. I'll leave a comment on the author's talk page, but he doesn't seem to be active any more with Wikibooks either. --Rob Horning 12:41, 22 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - What is this - Rob wanting to delete something I thought, must take a look. I did and yes I agree with the nom. -- Herby  talk thyme 12:45, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete This page was previously nominated for VfD back in January 2006, but the discussion was not archived (it was moved to the discussion page of the book). I voted to delete then, and I will vote to delete again now. I have no problem with keeping a controversial book around with the hopes that it will become acceptable, but as Rob pointed out in the nomination, this book has simply not become acceptable (and is unlikely to ever become so). --Whiteknight (talk) 13:45, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * By way of historical information, the reason I objected to the deletion earlier was mainly because it was a brand new book by a new contributor. That is no longer the case and is not a rationale to keep this sort of material.  --Rob Horning 07:08, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
