Economic secession

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Article doesn't appear to meet general notability guidelines. Most of this article is cited to self-published blog posts, obscure American libertarian websites that don't exist any more or sources that failed verification. Talk page discussion from 2010 indicates this is effectively a vanity article for a non-notable concept coined by a non-notable author.

Searches on Google Scholar and Google Books bring up the term, but used in contexts that have nothing to do with the subject of this article. So if there is to be an article on "economic secession", it would likely have nothing to do with this existing article. As such, I'm proposing this for deletion.

 * Delete, all references the article does use are not reliable and all articles that refer to the term are not used with the same definition the article uses. I did find one discussion about "economic secession" used to refer to the same thing the article does, but it was on some old fringe forum so I disregarded it. ULPS (talk) 17:25, 2 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete, fails GNG. Tempting to suggest a redirect to autarchism but that's probably a stretch. Ascelyn (talk) 23:10, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and above discussion. This is a neologism covered only in blogs and other unreliable sources. This might just be a case of too soon for inclusion. Right now, as of May 2023, it is an unreliable fringe theory. Bearian (talk) 17:25, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
