Federal income tax rates of the United States by year

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Whilst I appreciate the intent, this is not an encyclopaedia article; it's a (very lengthy) collection of statistics sourced entirely from primary government documents. The history of the US federal income tax is already well covered at Income tax in the United States, which includes a more sensible summary of this data in tabulated and graph formats. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 17:22, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete - I agree, this somewhat fails WP:NOT (WP:RAWDATA and WP:NOTSTATSBOOK) and doesn't really provide the kind of context for encyclopedic content that the the Income Tax history page does. Also, I agree that there are OR concerns as the article is based on primary sources. Smmurphy(Talk) 19:22, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
