 * Delete without prejudice. (1) The article as-is does not contain any information with sources, and the latter (on a generic topic, see #3 below) are not easy to find. (2) The current mathematically-looking text does not describe the subject at all. (3) The topic is quite legit, the term "transparency" is actively used in philosophy (mostly epistemology). However, epistemic transparency already has an article. (4) Generic topic of transparency in philosophy might be notable (there is, for example, doxastic transparency with common traits), but is tricky to write about while avoiding WP:SYNTH. Therefore, quickly delete the current proto-stub, but do not preclude creation of a better version in the future. --Викидим (talk) 18:24, 10 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete: transparency is used in a number of different ways in philosophy depending on the context, not seeing any evidence a unified article is warranted. I agree with Викидим that potentially a better article could be created in future if appropriate sources are found. Shapeyness (talk) 17:50, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
