*'''Delete'''- agree with last comment. This reads less like an encyclopaedia article than an extract from a "how-to" manual, that would be more suitable for an undergraduate handbook than an encyclopaedia.[[User:Vorbee|Vorbee]] ([[User talk:Vorbee|talk]]) 15:31, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

Essay, which is a blatant WP:NOT violation. RileyBugz会話 投稿記録 11:05, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- It is not an essay any longer. Bfpage (talk) 12:54, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
KeepRename to what is written now in the first sentence a- it is still undergoing improvement. Bfpage (talk) 11:25, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Bfpage: But it's an essay, it would have to be rewritten, with the title changed, to be able to be kept. It would have to be something different than it is. RileyBugz会話投稿記録 11:28, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- This article is being edited to address those issues. Allow time for it to get fixed. Bfpage (talk) 11:33, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

- Delete. The subject is inherently unsuitable for Wikipedia per WP:NOTHOWTO. No amount of improvement can change that. Clarityfiend (talk) 11:31, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- The how-to language has been removed. Bfpage (talk) 12:54, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. The article ends with an advertisement and Wikipedia is not a "how to" guide. So far all of this editor's contributions have ended with advertising PhD Dissertation.co.uk. Bakilas (talk) 11:35, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- The advertisement has been removed. Bfpage (talk) 12:54, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- Delete: Non-encyclopaedic WP:NOTHOWTO content. AllyD (talk) 11:47, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
- Delete- agree with last comment. This reads less like an encyclopaedia article than an extract from a "how-to" manual, that would be more suitable for an undergraduate handbook than an encyclopaedia.Vorbee (talk) 15:31, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

- Comment The article appears to have been written for the purpose of spamming/linking to a site that offers dissertation services/help. I applaud Bfpage's efforts to improve the article. At the same time it seems there is quite a bit of overlap with existing articles. See Thesis#Style and Style guide for example.
