[edit] Atlantis in Bible

Atlantis in Bible (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Original research. Copyvio from the author's own book Atlantis the Final Solution. A previous version was speedily deleted. This one is mainly irrelevant to the title, being a retelling of Genesis. Fork of Atlantis anyway. -- RHaworth 11:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

• Delete as unencessary and possibly POV fork of Atlantis, where the author's book is mentioned anyway. --Tikiwont 12:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Note that the link to the author's book was added by a single-purpose IP address. -- RHaworth 13:23, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Good catch. I was mostly implying that there is nothing to merge. Morover, the Atlantis references are full with ominous 'sources'. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tikiwont (talk • contribs) 13:36, 8 May 2007 (UTC).

• Delete looks like the editor put some material from his book into a Wikipedia page. Definite OR and a little conflict of interest for flavor. Maybe someone isn't selling so well... Cyrus Andiron 12:59, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as nonsense Mangoe 13:18, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. Close to the heart of original research. - Smerdis of Tlön 14:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Definitely WP:OR and even a little promotional to boot. I guess you could say that makes it a little soapbox-y. Arkyan • ^(talk) 15:57, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per all of the above. Boricuaeddie^{Talk • Contribs • Spread the love!} 23:28, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - nonsense (scientific evidence of the Flood etc). Alan Liefting 08:43, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Pure nonsense, the article refers to "scholars" and "scriptures" without providing references to any of them. More or less it appears to be a "cut & paste" of whatever scriptures are used as basis for the article with some personal interpretations added in. Almost sounds like "bible bashing".

• Delete per nom. While not patent nonsense, agree that article in its current state represents original research and an essay, not an encyclopedic article. --Shirahadasha 04:30, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
