[edit] SAM learning
Appears to be an advertisment with its content copied directly from a commercial website. Dave 12:19, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
- I wrote this article, most of it was copied but i do not work for, or wish to advertise the site, i simpy use it for Revision purposes. [[User:Neostinker|Neostinker}} 18:12, 7th May 2006

- If you think the page should stay on Wikipedia, can I suggest you change expand the material a little? Make it less about one particular business and more about the field in which the business operates? Some points that might be used:
-
-
- What is a revision centre
- How many are there
- Who uses them
- Why do they use them
- What methods do they use
-
-
- You probably can't do this properly just clipping material from a corporate website. As it stands the article is just an ad, but it does have the potential to be more than that. Do you intend to put in the work needed to improve it? --Dave 23:02, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

- Weak keep this is a well known site in the UK. --Xyrael T 17:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Delete for failing to provide proof of notability, as required by WP:WEB. Sandstein 18:32, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Strong Keep while I'm not in a position to know enough about SAM Learning to improve the article myself, I have attended a brief meeting in school about the site where I found many hundreds, if not thousands of schools across the UK are signed up to the site and a large number of LEAs have registered all their schools with the site. Things also seem to be growing. So hopefully we'll keep the article and someone will hopefully be able to improve the article to explain what the site is really about...something which can only really be done if you've properly used the site and I haven't really used it so far.

- Delete Article has only one contributor and contains only material clipped from a corporate website. Not only does this breach copyright, but makes the article indistinguishable from spam that is deleted from Wikipedia on a daily basis. The author has had more than enough time to improve the article but failed to do so. --Dave 23:49, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
