This has been around for a while but I only just noticed it on the daily updates because of a page move. As noted on the talk page it's just a sequence of quotes, connected by original research based on Schopenhauer's (and Kant's) writing itself. I.e. no proper encyclopaedic content, not even enough to merge into another article - not that there's an obvious one on e.g. "proofs of the parallel postulate".

Merge into Arthur Schopenhauer. I think it's appropriate to use primary sources for a philosopher's views on a topic such as this, and I wouldn't say the selection of quotes is OR, it's basically just what everyone has to do when deciding what gets into an article. --Sammy1339 (talk) 05:11, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge into Arthur Schopenhauer There's nothing to show this merits its own article, but a redirect makes sense to me. 131.118.229.17 (talk) 22:08, 21 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
