The Basadur Creative Problem Solving Profile

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )



The article is essentially a lengthy essay about a commercially offered method of measuring an employee's approach to creativity. (The article emphatically denies that it's a personality test, though I didn't really catch what was the difference.) No third-party references - sourced solely to research papers by the author and his collaborators. Borderline promotional. Delete. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 21:35, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

 * I am adding Marino (Min) Sidney Basadur to this nomination. (It's an article about the creator of this profile, also with no third-party references.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 18:35, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete The Basadur Creative Problem Solving Profile as clearly failing GNG. No comment on Basadur himself, for which there might be a better claim to notability but I haven't looked for sources. Certainly the page as it stands now isn't acceptable -- lacking secondary sources, reads like a CV. --Rhododendrites (talk) 03:50, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
