[edit] Conflict Style Inventory

this article had an aborted nomination on July 2nd that never got posted here and was removed from the article. I'm bringing it here because I think it needs a broader viewpoint; as it stands it is written largely by one user whose name is suspiciously similar to "Kraybill" itself. -- nae'blis _(talk) 01:53, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete or Clean-up at least. Totally incoherent. If made any sense I'd have a stronger opinion. A physical tool? Psychological tool? Testing procedure? WTF? -- GWO
  • FWIW, I believe "inventory" in this context generally refers to a type of personality test. — Haeleth Talk 19:40, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as nn topic, 671 Ghits and all of those appear to be product/catalog listings. No major third-party articles by uninvolved writers, and the listed authorship here makes impartiality questionable. The article apparently has been steadily massaged by some attentive writers. It has however no context, evidently was written by someone who knows the topic, and makes assumptions that a layman would not. The talk page contains a claim the writer is selling books by making manifold links to the page; I can't know the writers' intent. WP:VAIN is also a guideline, not policy, and I'm not quite seeing relentless self-promotion in the text despite the original contributor's username Kraybilr. The name is admittedly close to the Ron Kraybill Conflict Style Inventory, which in turn lends itself to the question of impartiality. Bottom line: No notability stated or implied.

• Delete unless radically cleaned up and notability asserted. This reads like an advertisement. — Haeleth Talk 19:40, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - The word "Inventory" in this context implies a method of rating or measuring behavior, and thus the article must show evidence the mesurement instrument is reliable and valid. Published scientific evidence from verifiable and reliable source, I may add. KarenAnn 23:00, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above Massmato 16:24, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
