The result of the debate was delete. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:09, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Non-notable standards created by a marginally (if at all) notable organization [1], added as vanity by its chairman Ken Standfield (User:Kenstandfield), whose sole edits (Special:Contributions/Kenstandfield) have been to promote himself, his books, and his institution. See also the following (closed) AfDs of other articles by Kenstandfield, which provide additional reasoning for deletion of these so-called "intangible management" topics:
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cycle-time overhead
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Intangible accounting
I am also nominating the following related page because it is a protologism by the same editor and is similar Vanispamcruftisement:

- Delete, niche business theory and definate vanity. The entire thing could be housed in a brief mention in a more appropriate article; there is certainly no need to create an exhaustive documentation of his proposals. Kuru talk 12:24, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete both. Userfy if User:Kenstandfield wishes. Delete from main namespace, per nom and per the arguments previously evinced in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Intangible accounting. Non-neutral attempt to promote original concepts and methodology, which cannot be supported by sources other than a single author. No evidence has been presented that these are legitimate, widely-recognized concepts. Dpbsmith (talk) 20:22, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ask original author for cleanup. If it isn't, delete or userfy.Armedblowfish (talk|mail|contribs) 22:45, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Delete - per all of the above.
I second the motion to "...send Ken Standfield to bed without supper."Doc Tropics 02:03, 24 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - I struck out my frivolous remark which bit a newcomer. I apologized to Ken on his Talkpage and I want to repeat my apology here. Sometimes I get carried away and forget that people frequently put a lot of work into an article without being clear on all of our myriad standards and policies. That's still no excuse for biting and I'm sorry for it. --Doc Tropics 16:20, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'd like to apologies for offending the people who have posted their comments here, it was not my intention. As I am new to Wikipedia, I was wondering if I could ask for some contructive guidance on what could be done to create an entry that would be acceptable to all those here?
- The standards are generally referred to as 'intangible standards' [2][3]
- Intangible standards are a new idea and I had hoped that Wikipedia could provide a way in which to create discussion and advancement on the topic. How this advancement occurs is uncontrollable by any specific person or organization - it is more about sharing and interaction. Was this a fair position for me to assume?
- I'd very much appreciate constructive feedback so I can save your time flaming me for future regarding postings.
- PS: After reading your comments I have been to bed without supper, apologies again.
- -- KenStandfield
- For reference, I have posted an explanation response on Ken's talk page here: [4]. --AbsolutDan (talk) 14:04, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Userfy then. (This means moving the article into userspace, instead of article space, so it would be at User:Kenstandfield/International intangible standards. That would give you time to improve the article at your own pace, and it could then be listed at deletion review. If you didn't manage to get the article up to speed, well, it's your userspace. I see you've already gotten contructive feedback on your user page, as well as offers for further help. : ) Armedblowfish (talk|mail|contribs) 19:37, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Good idea. Userfy should have been suggested earlier. Userfying does amount to deletion from the main article namespace, of course. Adding "userfy" to my suggestion above. Dpbsmith (talk) 19:59, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
