This outline of natural language processing was created in 2012 by User:The Transhumanist, who is a prolific creator of outlines and portals. The basic problem is that, while it refers to multiple Wikipedia articles, each of which has references to reliable sources, the outline itself, which seeks to impose a structure on an area of knowledge, is Original Research of a type not permitted by the Wikipedia policy that Wikipedia is not for original research. This outline was associated with a WikiProject that is defunct and has been nominated for deletion, but this outline is outward-facing in article space; it is seen by search engines and may be (erroneously) assumed by readers to be backed up by reliable sources.

- Delete per nom., although the problems you identify are shared by all of the "Outline of . . ." articles that I have reviewed. UnitedStatesian (talk) 22:29, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

- Delete all outline of pages are contentless link collections that duplicate the topic. Link farms are so 1995. Legacypac (talk) 22:40, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - I PROD'd the outline initially. It was then de-PROD'd by User:ElectroChip123 with the edit summary "Just because a user likes to make this kind of page, doesn't mean these kinds of pages are bad." True, but this kind of pages are not good because they are not consistent with Wikipedia's rule that is does not contain original research. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:38, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
