Wikibooks for everyone

 * 1) Not a pedagogic book.
 * 2) Original research.

 * 4) The author wants to keep it that way.

 * Clearly doesn't belong in a content space. I don't see that rename out of content space would be useful; the author had already set up a page in project space for their proposed ideas, and when the proposal wasn't gaining traction they created this additional page.  One proposal doesn't need two pages (in fact, it already suffers from confusing division of discussion between multiple places).  I suppose I could see some sense in a history merge.  --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 22:46, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol move vote.svg Move to userspace, where the author can develop it as a personal essay or a draft proposal without the risk of it being confused with actual policy. --Duplode (discuss • contribs) 01:57, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

If I understood correctly, I have been allowed to place my wikibook at its initial location without. Thierry Dugnolle (discuss • contribs) 13:14, 8 May 2017 (UTC)


 * There appears to have been some confusion, perhaps also on my part. My impression was that you (the author) had cut-and-paste moved the material to your userspace, which I interpreted as intent to comply (I may have been hasty on that point).  Moving it all without the edit histories would destroy everyone else's contributions both to the page and to the discussion on the talk page; so, I did an actual move, with history merge.  Without consent of the author it would be a bit early to act on the discussion, though it's clear what the outcome would be.  --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 15:21, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
