[edit] Political change

Delete - An opinion piece for the most part frought with original research. Wickethewok 15:36, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Delete per nom. Someone ought to flag down the editor with WP:NOT. RGTraynor 16:52, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep (I don't buy into all that 'strong' and 'weak' keep and delete crap.) Once again, deletion is the route taken without giving the main contributor a chance to bring the article up to an acceptable standard.--TheMadTim 03:18, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Response - the article would need to be re-created from scratch with a different title and I really don't know what content it would have. Thats why its up for deletion - because its an article with no real encyclopedic idea behind it and no real content. Wickethewok 07:02, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - Original research is original research is original research. It is not allowed on Wikipedia, at all, period, however skillfully the author writes it up, and AfD is absolutely the proper remedy for it. RGTraynor 14:35, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Well!! I think the article should stay because it provides a solid framework and structure for political change analysis to scholars as michael porter's framework provides for business analysis. Please do not over police. Rather provide ideas to make it relevent and more useful. The eagle 11:12, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

The last comment was provided by the article's creator, and seems to suggest that it is, indeed, unsourced and OR. Hornplease 14:01, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

• • • • Comment - The article's creator wants it to be a source of original analysis, which is not what WP is for. If you want to completely change the premise of the article and re-create it with new content and a different title, I would have no objection. Wickethewok 19:18, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as original research, possible copyvio. Stifle (talk) 23:35, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
