Systemic injustice in literature

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

While systemic injustice may well be a notable topic, there doesn't seem to be much, or any, coverage of it in reliable sources in relation to literature. Most of the sources in the article either refer to systemic injustice in non-literary contexts, or discuss specific texts but don't have anything to say about systemic injustice (there are a few on social justice and literature, which could be a notable intersection, but isn't the topic of this article). Literary hope theory, which was deleted last month, came out of the same course, and as far as content's concerned this is in significantly worse shape. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 19:09, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete, fails to be a notable intersection of topics given that one of the two themes doesn't even have its own article. Pure WP:SYNTH. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:59, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Yet another student essay that is not an encyclopedia article. This essay includes general descriptions of systemic injustice that are not specific to literature (which can apply to film, TV, real life, etc.) and particular examples of systemic injustice that occur in four works of literature, but no broader analysis that applies to a wider array of literature that ties this together into an encyclopedia article. I encourage course instructors to have their students improve existing articles rather than start new ones on such niche topics. Reywas92Talk 02:04, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Sigh. As everyone else has said, this is a student essay, not an encyclopedia article on a topic that meets wp's notability guidelines. if you're ever back and notice this, sorry. Please tell your prof. -- asilvering (talk) 03:32, 11 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete Essay that almost violates WP:SOAPBOX. D4iNa4 (talk) 05:44, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator and all of the above. This is an essay that runs afoul of WP:NOR, WP:SOAPBOX, and WP:SIGCOV. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 17:39, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per previous votes. While interesting, it's an unencyclopedic essay, and clearly fails WP:NOR and WP:SOAPBOX. VickKiang (talk) 05:43, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
