[edit] Mind-ink

Original philosophy - Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought. Delete. (Originally marked as copyvio, but it seems that the contributor wrote the text himself.) - Mike Rosoft 09:11, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - I've taken some time over this one. Per my own personal beliefs, I would unequivocably vote keep on this one, since it is a valid and very interesting philosophy, which I enjoyed reading. However, it was not presented in an encyclopaedic way, and hence at a very minimum would need to be reworked to suit that. Secondly, whilst I might personally feel that it should be kept, this is about interpretation of Wikipedia policy, not my own personal feelings. Wikipedia policy suggests that a blog with an alexa ranking of 4,601,014 and only 373 google hits, 95 relevant, with no independent reviews of the site is not suitably notable for an encyclopaedia. Its not just that his philosophy has not been in the news - it hasn't been reviewed anywhere. Oh and let's not forget that most of the google hits were actually not about www.mind-ink.com at all - they were about something having "mind" and "ink" next to each other. So I am afraid that sadly my hands are tied and I must vote delete. Zordrac (talk) Wishy Washy Darwikinian Eventualist 09:31, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. 'preciate the thought you've taken on this. Zordac. But as you say, there's no there there -- no hits on Google to speak of, 4,627,983 Alexa rating, no comments on his blog posts. I myself did not find the philosopphy that edifying... "Just because parents gave birth to their children doesn't mean that gives the parents the right to tell their children what they can or cannot do" Hmmmm I think I've heard that one from my teenage daughter...
