Omnilingual archaeology

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Appears to be an original research essay riff on the H. Beam Piper story "Omnilingual". The article isn't really about the story, though, but is an essay about archeology and popular culture. Lack of references and a strong point view make this unsuitable for an encyclopedia article.

Due to its structure and the lack of references, there doesn't appear to me to be anything that can usefully moved to either the article about the short story or the article on Archaeology. ArglebargleIV (talk) 16:37, 20 March 2012 (UTC)


 * This article represents the archaeological and popular culture elements of the short story Omnilingual and the important factors derived in meaning contributed by this viewpoint. This makes it not a point of view, but rather a article as seen within other journal sources. This article should have a right to remain.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.73.189.92 (talk) 16:51, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. No evidence that the short story is notable. No need to expand the article into an essay. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:46, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
