Deletion of Outline of self

Comment: ndash; {{ping|Szzuk}} "Outline of" in an article's title is short for "Hierarchical outline of", because the latter would just be horrendously long to include in titles. So, we use its short form, which is the common term used throughout academia and by other encyclopedias (including Worldbook, Britannica, etc.). Hierarchical outlines are a form of tree structure, a type of visual layout. They include sentence outlines, like the type most students learn to plan the structure of a paper, article, or book; and topic outlines, like the synopses professors hand out to their classes at the beginning of the school semester, or the subject outlines included in the Propædia#Outline of Knowledge|15th-edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica. Wikipedia outlines started out as purely topic outlines, but are evolving into a hybrid of the two forms, becoming  ''annotated outlines'', with the most developed ones being a list of topics with each topic including an annotation. Annotated lists are covered and encouraged in .  &nbsp; &nbsp; &mdash
