thread_title: Declaration of affiliation

message: Since the programme has been modularised it is referred to as Delta, not DELTA (pre-2008), and is no longer an acronym, nor for teaching adults alone. I will change the article to reflect this if there are no objections. The CELTA is still a fully capitalised acronym.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.242.179.252 (talk) 10:16, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  DELTA or Delta 

message: Perhaps this article should include a brief comparison (cost, teaching practice, recognition, etc.) between the Delta and other diploma courses (e.g. Trinity DipTESOL, LTTC DIP. TESOL- http://www.teachenglish.co.uk/tesol.htm). There's a fair amount of misinformation flying around, as this forum from Germany shows: http://www.toytowngermany.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=143378  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.242.179.252 (talk) 10:38, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Other diploma qualifications 

message: Louisepope seems to have made really very extensive changes to this article (and fair enough, it was a bit of a mess). However, I think it needs cutting down a lot. At the moment it's massive and reads like an information pack for the course. In addition, the references largely go straight to the Cambridge English website, which I'm pretty sure is not how these articles are meant to be referenced.
Louisepope notes that she works for Cambridge, and I think some bias is obvious here. All of the external links have been changed to redirect straight to Cambridge, and links to competitors (Trinity, mostly), have been removed. Why would this be done unless someone was trying to advertise Cambridge English? This article is unnecessarily long and detailed, and smacks of advertising. In fact, it's about ten times the length of the entry for 'applied linguistics'!
Anyway, I've added the links to trinity back to make the piece a bit less advert-esque, and I really think this article should be cut down substantially to just the key information. If people are interested they can go to the Cambridge website. They don't need to have everything paraphrased on here.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.132.84.199 (talk) 16:10, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
