Proposed deletion of Future of power


The article Future of power has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This is a personal essay, not an encyclopedia article.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

You are correct
Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so it only publishes encyclopedia articles, not personal essays. You can find lots of information about what Wikipedia is and how it works at WP:WELCOME. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 16:31, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Just a suggestion: In my own mind, I think there is a place for a section perhaps called "speculation" - indeed for perhaps any subject-article. Just an idea. -Alan Carvalho 11:58, 3 June 2012 (CST)
 * I'm afraid that Wikipedia is only an encyclopedia; if you're interested in a web site that also publishes speculation, there are lots of them out there. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 18:50, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi FisherQueen, If you give me a brief description on removing the essay, I will do it. But I wish you would reconsider, since it is philosophical. Thank you. -Alan Carvalho 19:17, 3 June 2012 (CST)
 * I've already deleted the essay, just after you blanked it. There's nothing to reconsider; if I didn't delete it, someone else would, since we all follow the same set of rules.   -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 00:51, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
