Wildness

This article as presented is almost entierly speculative, containing many subjective assertions about a variety of things. The final part of the article is particulary unencyclopedic:

"Due to its pursuit of unshielded possibilities, wildness encourages parsimony during the development and coordination of one’s understandings, instincts and emotions. It is a cutting process (like Occam's Razor) that exposes bare bones and truths, with no room for pretence and favourites. This feature can make wildness seem tough, but it also provides a stable foundation upon which nature can build. A sense of accomplishment or eureka can be the reward for using wildness, when it finds a simpler way through a complicated maze that was inhibiting life."

Essentially this is not an encyclopedic definition of "Wildness", it is merely a particular person's "Philosophy of Wildness". Orgone 06:47, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

  • This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 09:58, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as obvious OR. Not a bad impressionistic essay, in my opinion, but not appropriate for WP.DGG 23:48, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as interesting as it is, it's probably OR since it reads like a personal philosophy on the subject, complete with famous author quote. Darthgriz98 01:12, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
