Deletion of Alcohol use among college students

Comment: I don't particularly disagree that this is a really poor article, especially at the beginning, but I'm not seeing grounds for deletion. I wouldn't say this is original research, though  may well be relevant. But we're here to discuss the topic of the article. As such, inclusion guidelines concern whether it's encyclopedic, whether it can be verified from reliable sources, and whether it's notable. These are properties of the topic, not the article as presented. I'm no academic, but I guarantee that any editor here, can, in 5 minutes, come up with books, journal articles, and extensive media coverage of alcohol use among college students and its broad societal implications. Someone should post the appropriate flags to the article to improve its substance, but the topic clearly merits inclusion. --Special:Contributions/69.204.153.39|69.204.153.39
