Self-examination

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Why in the world Neelix made this article which just gives 2 or three sentences about, and links to Breast self-examination and Testicular self-examination. It adds nothing to the understanding of those topics, and misses completely the concept of self-examination of your thoughts, feelings, and motives - like why a person needs to insert tiny tittie redirects to other articles. As part of a delete we can G8 Housekeeping the 10 or so vague redirects this article. Legacypac (talk) 04:01, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete, there's no point to this article.  PK  T (alk)  14:41, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete While both topics are very important, nobody seems to be putting them together as one subject. Each already has its own article. I was also expecting something on mental self-examination, which also probably deserves an article of its own. Kitfoxxe (talk) 15:00, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. It appears that sources use the term "self-examination" to refer to refer to the general concept of conducting a medical examination on yourself (see, e.g., this source). Alternatively, I think you could also make a plausible argument to redirect this to Human self-reflection. -- Notecardforfree (talk) 17:05, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:NOTDIC. As said this doesn't even mention mental or spiritual self-examination, etc. —Мандичка YO 😜 18:06, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
 * There were three very pointless confusing inbound links from articles - in the opening paragraphs of Breast self-examination and Testicular self-examination and one see also from a mental topic. So a reader would click on the link to learn about self-examination just to be directed back to where they came from while learning nothing. I removed the links Legacypac (talk) 23:40, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete. Nonsensical and unnecessary and misleading WP:OR WP:SYNTH of two existing wiki articles. Not even what self-examination actually means. Softlavender (talk) 22:23, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
