I declined a speedy on this for blatant spam, but nonetheless don't think it's an appropriate article subject. While the list of references superficially looks impressive, upon reviewing them, I can't find a single one that even mentions the subject "MOOEC", let alone covers it in sufficient depth to allow for an article. The article appears to be based mainly, if not entirely, on original research, and given that a search for secondary sources specifically covering this subject comes up empty, there's no way to fix that.

- Delete - most of the article is about MOOCs rather than about this particular course. Most of the references in the article predate the existence of MOOEC, and the only ref that actually is about the article subject is the MOOEC website. Since the article has existed since January 2014 and there is still no coverage in secondary sources, it simply doesn't seem to be notable. --bonadea contributions talk 14:47, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

- Delete My take agrees with Bonadea -- the article is about MOOCs because there is not enough to create an article about this MOOC fork. The article reads like an essay about MOOCs, and is greatly padded beyond the presumed topic of MOOEC. LaMona (talk) 00:10, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
- Delete I couldn't find any real references for MOOEC. Fails GNG. CerealKillerYum (talk) 14:08, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
