I was quite relieved to find this article, as I was investigating the BarCamp wiki and hoping to find more information and context. It seems to me that this article covers a notable topic that will only increase in importance.
Does anyone know why the HigherEdCamp article was deleted? The link is still in this article, and I'd like to know more about the decision to delete.Gcampbel (talk) 22:03, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I've just substantially overhauled this article, with sincere apologies to the original authors and editors. But, it was marked for deletion, with most votes leaning against, based on its failure to conform to Wikipedia standards of neutral point of view (POV) -- "horribly POV'ed advertisement for an organisation," was how one person put it -- and a lack of reliable sources. I thought it best to address those concerns directly, without raising the hackles of the community. Namaste. Latrippi 04:46, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
The AfD made the news -- I'm not sure whether to post it here, or at the archived AfD. First time I've ever seen the deletion discussion of an article get mainstream press attention. JDoorjam Talk 19:58, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Actually, the SanFran Chronicle loves the AfD. They also covered the AfD of some stereotype SanFran residents have, sort of the hippy image. -- Zanimum 12:47, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
