 * Delete-it's written as an essay, and probably isn't worth a standalone article. Sources are not very good either.  Thekillerpenguin     (talk)   18:58, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete Epic WP:NPOV fail. See also Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion. In a sane world there would be some way to CSD this thing. -Ad Orientem (talk) 00:40, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete rather obvious personal essay. Guy (Help!) 08:26, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete While this is a well written, thought out essay, it's still an essay.-- Auric    talk  13:22, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - while every word may be true, it's not an encyclopedia article. We don't publish original research. That's a purpose of college degrees and academic journals. Bearian (talk) 16:36, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete As others have said, an essay. Dougweller (talk) 17:30, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
