  Keep - while it's unclear if this would be best as a standalone article or a part of a more general article on Derrida's philosophy, that's no justification for deletion. Other than the lack of citations, the material scans fine as potentially verifiable, appears to be encyclopedic content. - car chasm (talk) 04:45, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Article needs sourcing work, but Google Scholar shows extensive references to this term (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22Arche-writing%22), and many of them are specifically about the term, not about the creator. Jo7hs2 (talk) 03:46, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - As noted above, the article needs sourcing but sufficient sources clearly exist for this philosophical concept to pass GNG. WJ94 (talk) 10:54, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, or at least Draftify, as the article is a complete failure of WP:NOR. The "extensive" sources above don't seem to discuss the topic in-depth. The first ten I checked just name-drop the idea briefly without giving any actual discussion of it. Perhaps there's more out there, but until then, WP:TNT. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 22:13, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I've added a source that largely seems to cover what's stated in the article, I don't think there's actually any original research here, just statements about what Derrida said. - car chasm (talk) 00:17, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I think this article should get a little bit more discussion and plans for how to improve it.

• Strong keep: The search term you want to use here is the original French, archi-écriture. A great deal of in-depth "actual discussion" of the concept, and these are just the English-language sources. AFD is not cleanup. Gnomingstuff (talk) 03:35, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
