Non-notable and unencyclopaedic essay based mostly on self-published sources. The second paragraph is almost entirely WP:CRYSTAL. W. D. Graham 07:44, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak delete I think I've heard of this, but I can't find reliable references in mainstream sources. The current article is not great, with a lot of hypothesis about permanent moon bases and a lack of basic information, e.g. who Maslow was. I'm willing to change my mind given better references, but faced with the poor current state of this article and the apparent lack of mainstream coverage, deletion without prejudice seems the best option. It might be possible to redirect this, because there are other somewhat similar cyclical theories like Kondratiev wave and Grand supercycle, but I'm not sure of the best target. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:53, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. All I can find on this by way of sources is authored by the inventor of the concept, Bruce M. Cordell. The quality of the article is such that even if the topic was notable (for which I can't find any evidence), the best would nevertheless be to discard this and start over. --Lambiam 22:45, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
