Article by Daniel Odry promoting his management philosophy. Is it original research? Does it actually say anything about sustainability? (Note that it is not a copyvio - the PDF from which it is taken includes an explicit copyright release.) -- RHaworth 06:27, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete - It is more like an essay rather than an encyclopedic entry. Fails WP:WWIN#Wikipedia_is_not_a_publisher_of_original_thought. Cheeers -- Imoeng 06:42, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - Appears likely to be original research, certainly not a noted and accepted theory even if not. Seraphimblade 06:48, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Do Not Delete This Article gives the definition of sustainability management which is supported by the sustainability community and many others-see the links. People with differing opinions can edit the article and make additions... — Bauk (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
Comment - Unfortunately, Wikipedia is not a place for opinions. We are dealing with facts here. Please see WP:WWIN. Cheers -- Imoeng 09:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Comment - Please express your definition of opinion and fact concerning this matter. Please give some examples of proof, that can show that this is an opinion and not a commonly shared definition or fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bauk (talk • contribs)
I was referring to the comment above me "People with differing opinions can edit the article and make additions...". Wikipedia is not the place to write opinions. Cheers -- Imoeng 11:56, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Do Not Delete This articel contents publish reasearch results being published and accepted by the sustainability community. I think to edit this article to fullfill the meaning of Sustainability Management would enable more than to talk about deleting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rgegusch (talk • contribs) — Rgegusch (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
  • Do Not Delete I believe it's a widely shared definition. K. Herrmann — This comment was left by User:84.190.213.72 (talk • contribs)
  • Do Not Delete This article is part of a research and gives some interesting and precise information concerning "sustainability". M.Mijajlović — This comment was left by Mijajlom (talk • contribs)— Mijajlom (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • Do Not Delete Sustainability Management is a concept that support the implementatio of sustainability in companies. It makes sense to leave this entry. M.Vanegas — This comment was left by User:130.149.137.53 (talk • contribs)
  • Strong delete Delete because it's an essay/original research. Strong because of one of the most pathetic attempts at sockpuppetry in recent memory. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:37, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Vehement delete per Andrew Lenahan. This is pure bollocks, intolerably vague and abstract: "The main task of Sustainability Management is the set-up and maintenance of a modern corporate culture with social contribution for achievement as superior leadership guideline." It's unlikely this could ever be rewritten in plain English because people who write in this manner will not, and those who write plain English will find there's "no 'there' there" in the subject. - Smerdis of Tlön 14:20, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete per Andrew Lenahan and Smerdis of Tlön. I shouldn't have tried to read and understand the article, but I did, and now my head hurts. Edward Wakelin 15:40, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong delete per nom and Andrew. -- Vary | Talk 17:30, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as unencyclopedic and original research. (Plus the articles sustainability and sustainable development cover the topic already.)--Ed (Edgar181) 17:38, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete for the opposite of all the reasons given above under Do Not Delete. Uncyclopaedic. OR. etc etc. Emeraude 17:52, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete WP:NOR QuiteUnusual 20:36, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete While there may be certain strains in the debate of sustainability and sustainable development regarding sustainability of commerce and the role of corporations, these concepts are very far removed from the original research found in this article. --The Way 00:19, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per The Way. All above IPs are from the same location. Michaelas10 (T|C) 09:45, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Not DeleteSeems not as riginal research, maybe add more references. Sunny — This comment was left by User:88.73.52.144 (talk • contribs)
  • Not Delete The article shows the fact that process and structure of organizational communications and interactions presupposes one another. No organization can reproduce a sutible superior leadership guideline (structure) without the acknowledgement of the activities of their stakeholders (process). The suggestion that education (especially adult education) is impotant to compile information about organizational processes is fitting with the latest state of reasearch to the concept of employability.

  • Weak Delete I see evidence from Google searching that this is a real buzz-word in corporate management circles. I didn't find any reliable sources that we could use to have a decent article. While I suspect they exist; this text is not a real help to us. GRBerry 14:54, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Do Not Delete This article gives a simple overview of Sustainability Management and is therefore great help for even those who have nothing to do with the matter, but want to study further. I consider this article an approved opinion, in no sense an original research! Quotations and further reading links are given. so why not keep it in? This article may need to be expanded but not deleted. [[[sandkamper]]]
