::: In most language references, it's nicer to have a few brief examples showing the full range of possible use cases, than a single lengthy example showing the context in which it might be used. The one exception I can think of is open/read/close, which tend to be shown in an example together I'd argue for not to delete lengthy examples merely because of style: instead to reformat them into the correct style.
::: However, if someone were to key in a longer example, I certainly wouldn't delete it as unfitting: if it were mammoth, I'd move it off to its own page, but I have strong reservations against deleting any useful user-created content: it's inefficient to waste the work, and it dissuades the editor from creating more pages, if they see swathes of work they spent a long time on being scorned and trashed rather than built on. There are few enough contributing editors as it is. [[User:DewiMorgan|DewiMorgan]] 13:08, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
