Begriffsschrift and Interlingua compared

Original research. Even though a number of sources are mentioned, none of them even touches this comparison. The comparison actually makes no sense. "Begriffsschrift" and "Interlingua" are two completely different things, so the comparison only consists of a collection of differences, with no common properties mentioned. It is a bit as if I was to create an article "Tables and cars compared", mentioning all the differences between tables and cars. We don't need comparison articles for any pair of ideas. Comparison articles only make sense if there are sufficient similarities, and if the comparison itself has been addressed in some sources; else it is clearly original research.

 * Delete. Essay comparing two rather dissimilar things: a language and a notation for a system of formal logic. Interlingua and the characteristica universalis compared has similar issues: it compares a real spoken language to a hypothetical philosophical language.

 * Delete both as essays full of OR and synthesis, comparing two dissimilar objects. I added the other article mentioned by Zetawoof to this discussion. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 04:07, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete the prime article as violating WP:OR, or at least WP:SYNTH. Not sure about the second one. Bearian (talk) 20:06, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
