Article about an apparent neologism. I can find sparse sources but not sure whether this is sufficient to demonstrate notability. Seeking community consensus. Mccapra (talk) 23:09, 29 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:OR and WP:GNG. I would not oppose a redirect to an appropriate target. Bearian (talk) 01:44, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The article seems to come verbatim from World Heritage Encyclopedia - my link to show the article there was rejected, however. It's likely a worthy subject for an article, but not in copy-and-paste manner without sourcing.--Concertmusic (talk) 16:18, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Interesting. I didn't come across that in my search but when I look now I can't even get the WHE to load properly. My guess is that the person who was trying to propagate this neologism was responsible for the entry there as well as for our article here. Mccapra (talk) 17:28, 7 December 2020v (UTC)
  • OK I've finally got it to load and there is no entry for 'involuntary narrative’. Searching for that term just throws up a bunch of unrelated items with the word 'involuntary' in them. Mccapra (talk) 18:02, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am not sure why this link comes up as blacklisted - please check for Gutenberg and article ID = WHEBN0028885249.--Concertmusic (talk) 19:39, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete - Appears to be an attempt at a WP:NEOLOGISM that failed at gaining any sort of widespread use. The content currently in the article seems largely comprised of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Searching for sources terms up pretty much nothing that are not just mirrors of this article. There are results from papers that happened to use the two individual words, but none of them appear to be discussing the subject of this article. The entry at the "World Heritage Encyclopedia" mentioned by Concertmusic above is actually just a mirror of this article - it specifies at the bottom that it was copied from this Wikipedia article, not the other way around.

  • I wonder why it didn’t come up when I searched for it. Mccapra (talk) 19:37, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
