Anarchism and Friedrich Nietzsche

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article most likely should be merged into another article as the subject is really rather limited. Why not have articles for any number of political and philosophical thinkers and anarchy? Soxwon (talk) 20:46, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: Article reads like an essay, seems to me more of an WP:OR synthesis of the referenced articles rather than documenting them. GreyWyvern (talk) 22:59, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep This is a f**cking serious article created two days ago by someone who clearly has considerable (if not downright impressive) specialist knowledge. Editors like him are the type of content providers we really should cater for and treat well.  The two delete rationales above read something like: "I'm not sure I understand this, think it should be merged with something else, or better just delete it".  Gbooks "Anarchism and Friedrich Nietzsche"  returns approx 1,200 hits - a crude first proxy for justification for an article.  The article creator is a member of the Wikipedia Anarchism task force.  I suggest this nomination is thown out as poorly reasoned, and we then give this task force the necessary time to work on the article and straighten out whatever issues there may be.  If the nominee is seriously concerned about something, the appropriate action would be to start a dialogue at the talkpage, not to reach out for the shotgun as the default action Power.corrupts (talk) 16:36, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per Power Corrupts. Philosophy is one of Wikipedia's weaker subjects, and the correlation between the article's two subjects is notable as it has been commentated upon and evaluated in third-party sources.  Eduen obviously has specialized knowledge of this subject and he should be encouraged to rework the article to prune out the aspects of it that appear to be OR. I'm not opposed to a future nomination if the article appears to be inescapable from OR but for now I think we should let the article-building process occur naturally.

 * keep:hello. As i read No original research it doesn´t hold on for this article. anarchists have loved nietzsche since the XIX.--Eduen (talk) 19:27, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Strongest possible keep There was a point around the turn of the last century that Anarchism was the philosophy that the man was most associated with. Any coverage of Nietzsche without this article is sorely lacking. Zazaban (talk) 20:07, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. If the only reason given for deletion is that this might be better covered in another article, I would remark that the appropriate article is already too long and so summary style suggests having particular subjects treated in separate articles.  This doesn't seem to be a WP:POVFORK or WP:COATRACK.   RJC  TalkContribs 04:03, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
