Wikipedia:Newbie treatment at Criteria for speedy deletion

{{Nutshell|This was a 2009 experimental project that had been carried out by several people to confirm whether or not Wikipedia's system for handling new pages is properly working. The project was heavily contested and eventually discontinued. For more information, please see the talk page.|shortcut1=WP:NEWTREAT|shortcut2=WP:NEWT}}

23 November 2009 - The data collection phase of this project is now over. If anyone in the future is contemplating starting a new phase of Mystery shopping, please review the talkpage and make sure you address the concerns expressed there. Also read the Signpost article for a brief summary of the results.

This page was created as a response to [http://travel-industry.uptake.com/blog/2009/09/04/bullypedia-a-wikipedian-whos-tired-of-getting-beat-up/ this critique of wikipedia] (dead link as of July 2017; archived version: [https://web.archive.org/web/20091213011036/http://travel-industry.uptake.com/blog/2009/09/04/bullypedia-a-wikipedian-whos-tired-of-getting-beat-up/]), which poses two challenges: can we avoid the problem of new articles by newbies being tagged for speedy deletion within two minutes? And, can such new articles survive for 7 days?

To take up the Let's all create an extra account challenge:

  1. Create a new wikipedia account (remembering of course to inform Arbcom per Wikipedia:Sock puppetry#Legitimate uses by emailing {{NonSpamEmail|arbcom-l|lists.wikimedia.org}})
  2. Write an article that doesn't meet the deletion criteria
  3. After seven days add it to this page by creating a row in the results table.
  4. Create a subpage to this page in your user name and transclude it here whilst discussions are ongoing
  5. When you are ready to unveil your article notify all involved parties of this page, but please take care to be as discreet and gentle as possible when informing fellow editors of any mistakes they may have made.

Discussions about the scope of this project are welcome, at Wikipedia:Newbie treatment at Criteria for speedy deletion/Scope.
