[edit] Language personality theory

Language personality theory (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article does not provide any significant sources or assert notability. Also suspected WP:COI, as the only other articles edited by the creator were references to this theory and the username is the same (Sergey). The addition to Personality psychology was deleted very quickly, the other was in a Further reading section, so it may have escaped notice. The talk page contains another editor's unfavorable comments as well. Clarityfiend 23:48, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete The subject may be notable, but the page as it stands appears to be a copyright violation. If we recreate this later, let's not violate copyright. Antelan talk 00:07, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete — Given previous problems with articles on personality theories, I think it is not too much to ask that they cite an external work (other than that of the theory's discoverer). This one doesn't. Cedars 01:57, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete-- besides being drawn straight from the website, this article doesn't do anything to explain the subject. Encylopedias operate at different levels, but one purpose is to leave the reader understanding more than they knew before they started reading. This fails that standard.

  • Merge to Sergey V. Golubkov (which needs to be written first...), he seems like a notable scholar and his theory can be described in his bio article.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  17:40, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
