[edit] Premodernist paradigm

Might be original research; more likely comes from the Postmodernism Generator, available at http://www.elsewhere.org/pomo. --OliverTraldi 00:38, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, I don't think this is a hoax from the Generator, but it's definitely original research. Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought. -- H·G (^words/_works) 01:30, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete all of the above, and zero incoming links. — RevRagnarok ^{Talk Contrib Reverts} 02:34, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Delete Pure non-knowledge. -- Librarianofages 02:48, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as original research. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 04:47, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Article needs cleanup and conformity to MoS yet its got citations and there are no real reasons why this should be deleted. SynergeticMaggot 06:29, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Delete. I'd wager hoax via Dada generator. Author who created this article did so anonymously, created this one article in toto, then decamped. I tried Googling a quotes: ""Class is part of the stasis of narrativity," attrib Foucault, Baudrillard, Gilberte. I searched for other phrases, and started getting all kinds of essays all written in the same style & format & with the same vocab, as well as frequent Dada generator hits. --SigPig 08:49, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete. Hoax and patent nonsense. I've played with the PoMo generator myself: the generation of "references" where most are published by Loompanics or And/Or Press is diagnostic. Smerdis of Tlön 14:18, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. I smell a pseudo-intellectual hoax here myself. As written, the article is nonsense. Unless a very strong cleanup can be done to prove there's an actual subject in here, this deserves a delete per WP:HOAX. Scorpiondollprincess 14:58, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
