Academic goobledygook disguised as some sort of article. Original research. For somebody who throws out such unintelligible phraseology, they sure can't spell. RickK 00:16, Nov 15, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete unless better content is established. -Fennec (&#12399;&#12373;&#12400;&#12367;&#12398;&#12365;&#12388;&#12397;) 00:58, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree with RickK. Bart133 00:59, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge with Cultural Relativism. I am the author of the article. This is not original research, there is plenty of writing on this subject, I'm just too lazy to write any more. My intent was to "get the ball rolling" on a topic in a draft stage before adding it to the main page, which is Cultural Relativism. Other people have done this by putting bullets on a page with just the header to guide people in the future as to what topics to write about. I don't like that approach, I'd rather only finished writing be added to established pages like Cultural Relativism, but as yet Wikipedia has no procedure for starting a new subtopic without changing the topic's entry. 68.232.111.146 01:04, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Merge into Cultural relativism. Gazpacho 02:18, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * If this is going into one of the existing articles, then it should be cleaned up first. Otherwise, delete it. rernst 02:42, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: Original research and advocacy. I saw the reference at the end, but the problem is that this is a commonplace.  Also, it equates cultural relativism and ethnocentrism, which are antithetical.  The analysis is very shallow at this point.  It misunderstands the originating impulses of cultural relativism and conflates cultural relativism into a single thing.  In fact, it's the consequence of a set of beliefs and not a belief itself.

 * Merge and redirect to cultural relativism or else delete. Does not merit a separate article; current contents are POV.   &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 04:24, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * No useful content. Delete. If the topic has any merit, it should be included in moral relativism. (Cultural relativism is just a redirect at the moment.) - Mike Rosoft 18:28, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * delete if there was anything worth keeping then it's been kept by now. Mozzerati 22:59, 2004 Nov 15 (UTC)
 * Keep as redirect. anthony &#35686;&#21578; 21:13, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, no redirect. No useful content and not a title that anyone is going to in an article nor search for. Wile E. Heresiarch 05:07, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)
