WHO MADE JAMES BOWIE'S FAMOUS KNIVES--THE TRUE STORY[edit]
AfDs for this article:
- WHO MADE JAMES BOWIE'S FAMOUS KNIVES--THE TRUE STORY (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Unencyclopedic essay filled with original research. Fails WP:SOAP. The creator even says, "This article is a condensation of my 28-page search paper with the same title in the library of congress." Cunard (talk) 08:06, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The topic of this article isn't notable on its own and seems like undue weight on such a trivial aspect of the Bowie Knife even if it were written as a viable article. But the whole article here is framed as essay/OR/fringe-theory-esque essay, unencyclopediac in style. Add a sentence or two with real WP:RS WP:CITE (I assume that's what all the parenthesized numbers refer to, in...some bibliography somewhere?) to the knife article about its origins? DMacks (talk) 08:21, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Not notable and unencyclopedic. If there is anything worthy of being kept then it should be in the Bowie knife article. The paper itself is not notable of an article. Readro (talk) 11:13, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Non-notable, not encyclopedic, and a POV fork as well, I think. Skinny87 (talk) 12:24, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per everyone. Edward321 (talk) 14:07, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Per WP:MYSPACE. I think the editor assumes this is a place that will accept his research paper. --Adam in MO Talk 14:20, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. This article is a condensation of my 28-page search paper with the same title in the library of congress. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:02, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per all of the above. Obviously not encyclopedic. --L. Pistachio (talk) 23:51, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Not notable among the numerous other problems. Camw (talk) 04:46, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, move content, get refs merge into Bowie Knife. Machete97 (talk) 15:43, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
