Wikipedia is not a Crystal ball or an Indiscriminate collection of information. Is also badly written and is not notable Pheonix15 20:42, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep This is not a matter of WP:CRYSTAL. The article deals with the ongoing theoretical discussion of what such colonization will entail. It contains information from what some leading theoreticians have proposed. It is of scientific, educational, and encyclopedic interest. It is not random cruft. This sort of discussion has taken place for all the Colonization articles. It is as notable a subject as the other, more firmly established, survived AfD articles about Space Colonization. If Sagan and Dyson aren't notable enough as authorities, than who is? As has been said in other AfD's, deletion is not a cure for bad writing. The cure for that is clean-up, expansion and editing.

- Keep This is not crystal ball-ism. As mentioned above, this is about a theoretical possiblility and is of scientific interest, not so very different from colonization of Mars or the moons of Jupiter and Saturn. It has reputable sources and as for it being badly written, there is a simple solution for that - add a cleanup tag or fix it yourself! Tx17777 21:26, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. This article seems to have several mentions in good sources which were not written by Freeman Dyson. It therefore seems to meet notability requirements, and it is also part of a larger debate. –––Martinphi (Talk Ψ Contribs) 22:03, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
