  • Transwiki to Wikisource, as per nominator.Image:Weather rain.pngSoothingR 10:49, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is one of Larry Sanger's sets of philosophy lecture notes, which were added to Wikipedia back in 2001 in hope that they could be reworked into encyclopedia articles. There have now been almost five years for anything useful to be harvested, and we have a decent article Physicalism. - SimonP 22:45, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Simon put it perfectly. +sj + 06:47, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
    But note that the text ends with "long hard thinking", a meme which has remained with wp (likely from many sources) to this day.

  • Delete Since Larry's not around any more, I'll be a bit blunt here: the lecture isn't that good anyway. Also, per SimonP. Xoloz 17:17, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
