Synthesized title/article name. Article's title is not established as having come from sufficiently sourced material Edaham (talk) 11:53, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete (from the nominating editor) Aside from the virtually irredeemable issues with formatting, referencing, sectioning and original research issues, this article seems to be an academic essay (possibly created as a student project), in which the title its self fails WP:NPOVTITLE as to whether the article title is a name derived from reliable sources or a descriptive title created by Wikipedia editors. There's no lede section, but the body of the article seems to be being used as a coat rack for a selection of sources combined to support a personal view of a variety of subjects and opinions held by the editor who created it.

• Delete Agreed. Certainly reads like an academic assignment, and not a particularly good one at that. Article creator has no substantial edits other than this, and no edits for over a year. The formatting etc are not entirely irredeemable, but there seems no point. Emeraude (talk) 13:31, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• delete Well, it was an academic assignment, and it shows. Mangoe (talk) 14:10, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
