(Contested PROD) This article reads like an essay. It seems to me that an encyclopedia article analyzing the approaches to combat oppression is inappropriate (and possibly POV) when articles like Oppression and Anti-oppressive practice exist to supply the facts and information surrounding the issue of oppression.

- Comment The last entry on this version of my user talk page may be of interest to users commenting. It is is a message from the creator and primary contributor of the article outlining their creation of the article as part of a university class group project. --Nick—Contact/Contribs 19:21, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As the user and creator of this page, I would like to contend it.
-I am a new user and was not aware that my entry was going to be published and viewed by others automatically this was a fault of my own
-as a group we decided to give 'approaches to anti oppression' in terms of interlocking and intersecting as THEY ARE IN FACT dominant appaoraches to the discussion of oppression
-our contributed work and content would clarify and add to the enclyclopediatic information specificaly speaking towards the entry entitled 'intersectionality' as there is MORE discussion needed in DEFINING intersectionality. And i also believe that encyclopediatic knowledge that contributes to and INTERLOCKING approach is also needed
-I in the meantime need to reformat the content so that it does not read like an essay, but is rather factual and informative regarding the related literary work available.
-if after reviewing my points to defend keeping the article as published is not considered and the entry will ultimately be DELETED
please allow an 'unpublished' version of the wiki entry to be available for my professor to use as marking or keep it published for the next two weeks PLEASE all of my work will be erased and i am aware that this is my fault but i do promise that it will look like an official/typical wiki entry by the 20th of may.

- In light of above, userfy or email to author. Either way, please delete. It's original research as well as hopelessly "po-mo". Hairhorn (talk) 20:12, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Userfied and can be recreated if notability is established. ChildofMidnight (talk) 03:42, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. We really need an approaches to oppression article to balance the POV of this one; I'm sure I would consult it often, looking for handy hints to oppress more thoroughly and creatively. But this seems to be an essay of original research pushing a point of view. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:49, 15 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as above Blue Square Thing (talk) 18:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. WP:ESSAY based upon WP:POV. It would need a complete re-write with a wider and more rounded view of the subject area and thorough, reliable, pref. academic sourcing to be considered. Can't get there from here. Plutonium27 (talk) 19:01, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
