Is this an appropriate encyclopedia topic? From my understanding, the wiki is not a "How to" manual. In any case the opening sentence needs to be revised since it does not conform to the manual of style. Any other opinions? -Frecklefoot

I was thinking along the same lines. Perhaps a more general article about autograph collecting would be appropriate. This could then be listed under List of hobbies and Collecting. D.D. 20:29 Jan 27, 2003 (UTC)

Agreed. It's a personal essay which breaches point 9 of Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not Either delete or send it to meta

Content has been moved to Autograph collecting...now it just needs some editing. Most of the information in the entry is useful and correct. --The Cunctator

I disagree. The 'information' here is highly POV and non-encyclopedical. Most of the things are "one should do..." rather than "one generally does..." in nature. An encyclopedia should not be telling people what they should or should not do, that's POV. Andre Engels 10:24 21 May 2003 (UTC)

This is absolute garbage that has no place in encyclopædia. What next? [[How to Cut Grass]]? FearÉÍREANN

Reboot as article

3 December 2019: redirect converted to article, starting with content split off from the Autograph article (including multi-issues tag). --Francis Schonken (talk) 07:39, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
