Hypothetical situation. There probably are enough sources out there for this topic to meet WP:GNG but I don't believe that this is an appropriate encyclopedic subject. Funny Pika! 12:08, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep It's notable because discussed in multiple sources (Slate did a series on various forms of collapse[1]) and while we may want to combine this with related themes (social collapse, economic collapse, etc) it's a legitimate topic. Wouldn't oppose merging if there are relevant targets. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:07, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- delete it is not any form of standard study, just random people making random guesses. wikipedia is not a WP:CRYSTALball. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 13:39, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per reasonings of TRPOD & RAY.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 07:33, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Speedy, as Wikipedia shouldn't be WP:CRYSTAL, prognosis center, also article is written more like an essay in totally unencyclopedic style, with authors own opinion and others' WP:POVs. I am totally against to write articles in "What would be if it would be?" style.Alex discussion ★ 11:35, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
