This article appears to consist entirely of original research/personal essay, and would require substantial rewrite to fit into the encyclopaedia. TYelliot | Talk | Contribs 07:01, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. We really need a speedy deletion category for personal essays such as this. Nick-D (talk) 08:37, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • I was going to lecture you about making "Delete per WP:FOO" !votes but after reading the article I realised there's not much to add. This topic seems to be fundamentally original research and even the title is an opinion, and the articles in Category:Feminism and education cover it fairly well, I think. I'm not sure a speedy criterion for this would be good though because things like this take a while to read. Anyway, yes, delete, and point the creator to Wikipedia:Alternative outlets if that hasn't already been done, because it's well written and somewhat interesting. ekips39talk 00:48, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Delete per WP:X" are sometimes bad because they can be a petitio principii - by saying "guideline X ought to apply", they implicitly assume that guideline X has been violated without saying how. But here, any reasonable person will agree this is an essay... Tigraan (talk) 09:09, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
