Delete This was deleted 2.5 years ago when it was basically nothing but a link to wiktionary. Now it's an essay, unsourced and best to be deleted. An editor deleted the content and made a dab page, but with a single link to the Buddhist concept, which may be where it ought be redirected if it's deleted, but this current incarnation isn't headed to nirvana...

 * Keep This topic is notable by this name and there is a large number of good sources available. Colonel Warden (talk) 23:14, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as unreferenced original research. Beeblbrox (talk) 01:08, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment There is a discussion of Western philosophical equanimity here. I think this is a potential article title, but I'm undecided whether the content is salvageable. It would have to be rewritten from sources and indicate the prior history of the terminology. --Dhartung | Talk 09:25, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment The point made by Dhartung is serious, because there is no doubt that a perfectly legitimate philosophy article can be made on the topic. The problem is that, as it is now, there isn't anything worth saving. For now, I'd say weak delete but with no prejudice for a recreation with a serious and sourced treatment of the topic.--Aldux (talk) 14:57, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
