[edit] Incompetent design

  • Keep The page makes valid points about a flaw in the theory of intelligent design, e.g. that our teeth are crowded because the mammalian tooth set evolved for longer muzzles (same goes for our sinuses); this only make sense in light of evolution, or of a capricious god with a penchant for dentistry. Let the article stay and expand. Alternatively, merge with Argument from poor design.
  • Don't Delete*This is quite funny. Perhaps it should be merged with an article of arguments against Intelligent Design, as it is satire, but it should by no means be deleted. Steve Sims 12/30/05 10:44 PM PST

I really don't see how this is notable. - Ta bu shi da yu 05:21, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge into an article like Arguments against Intelligent design or something. I think its noteworthy just maybe not enough to be its own article. --Pboyd04 05:26, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge as per above. It's been reported on; it's notable, but not enough yet to justify its own article. Daniel Case 05:31, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - term only two months old, based on news release from author's institution of higher learning. No independent references. With the debate on intelligent design, this seems to be a parody. B.Wind 05:46, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep if this can be expanded enough to justify its own article. If not, merge as indicated above. -- MisterHand 05:57, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and maybe there can be an Incompetent designer article too, since Intelligent designer evaded AfD. Endomion 06:13, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge with Argument from poor design (it's already listed in the see also section, and it fits) and then leave a redirect. ++Lar 06:49, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
