Proprioceptive language learning method

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This doesn't look like a real language-learning method. I have never heard of it outside Wikipedia, and I can only find mirror sites and self-published books that mention it. Of the references in the article, only one makes the claim that the proprioceptive language-learning method is actually a language-learning method, and that is a self-published book by Lundquist. You can find the text of it here - note that much space is spent promoting Lundquist's English lessons. —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 00:45, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete as probable WP:OR. Most of the cited sources relate to speech pathology or to language learning generally, not to this method. Lundquist, Learning Spoken English, appears to be an exception. I wonder whether the undated "public domain" work is un-reviewed, possibly student work. Not that such work is necessarily suspect, but it should be supported by additional, reliable sources. Cnilep (talk) 05:15, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't find any evidence that this topic, under any of its names, meets our notability criteria. --Lambiam 16:48, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
