Condition (philosophy)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Appears to be a personal essay/WP:OR. Not sure what encyclopedic value can be gleaned from what's there. I think at this point, WP:TNT may be the best option. Ajpolino (talk) 04:46, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging @Andrew Davidson: who deprodded article earlier and may have useful insight to add.Ajpolino (talk) 04:50, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. Reading this is painful, the lead is very philosophical and manages IMHO to explain nothing. Now, the topic may be notable - see [1]. But whether this essay-like / OR / SYNTH piece is salvageable, I am not sure, leaning towards WP:TNT (but I do have a bias against philosophy)... Anyway, more seriously, while I think the underlying topic may be notable, I am not sure if there is much we can salvage from this. A lot of content here is unreferenced and likely OR. Trimming this down to few meaningful sentences could make it useful, perhaps. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:29, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The topic is philosophically valid but already treated at Necessity and sufficiency (which Necessary and sufficient condition redirects to, and which is linked from Condition). This article is not very well written and has nothing worth merging. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:55, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
