Wikibooks:Requests for deletion/Kedar Joshi/A Compendium of Selected Metaphysical Quotations of Kedar Joshi

Contravenes hosting policy and original research policy. Just a collection of the author's musings, so no real potential for collaboration. Recent Runes (discuss • contribs) 23:07, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
 * It seems not all of it is original research though. Some of the musings appear to have been quoted in noted sources, such as: “Certainty is the most vivid condition of ignorance and the most necessary condition for knowledge.” - Journal of the American College of Cardiology “God is a philosophical black hole, the point where reason breaks down.” - The Times of India “Truth may have been found but might never be known.” - Philosophy Pathways “If knowledge is my God, doubt would be my religion.” “I feel I am, but I think I am not.” “He, and he alone, who suffers is a prisoner.” And some in possibly good, non-noted sources, such as: “The world is truly beautiful solely in the eyes of a true philosopher.” - Boloji.com “I am God; I am asleep; and Kedar Joshi is my dream.” “It is human to search for the theory of everything, and superhuman to find it.” - wakingtimes.com “The meaning of life is 'the ultimate questioner's vanity'.” - todayinsci.com “In reality the universe has no geometry.” - quoteland.com Considering the nature of the sources and some other things, I reckon there is a potential for collaboration. &mdash; 121.246.33.253 (discuss) 05:44, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol delete vote.svg Delete A collection of quotes from someone notable would belong on sister project Wikiquote. A collection of quotes from someone non-notable would seem to be hosting.  A book that isn't a collection of quotes... would not be the book we're discussing.  --Pi zero (discuss • contribs) 06:56, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Have to agree with Pi zero. If we were looking at a book of quotes from a notable person with significant critical analysis, that would be a different story, I think. Chazz (talk) 07:46, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I believe that the works are notable and not original work however I am inclined to go with the delete decision because this appears to be nothing more than a collection of quotes.--ЗAНИA [[Image:Flag_of_Italy.svg|15px]]talk 21:36, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol delete vote.svg Delete as this is not a work within Wikibooks' scope as detailed above.  – Adrignola discuss 03:27, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
 * This does not appear to be a mere collection of quotes. The quotes seem to be grouped into four categories, pointing out which quote belongs to author’s which idea; such useful grouping does not seem to exist anywhere on author’s works and webpages, except when it comes to the fourth category. -- 115.109.11.205 (discuss) 05:25, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Granted; however in my opinion that does not make this into a book. Grouping quotes together by topic is certainly useful and should be encouraged; but as Pi zero has pointed out, a better place for it would be Wikiquote, which is meant to be for quotes; and quotes could be grouped together there as easily as here.

 * Out of the scope of Wikibooks. Move to Wikiquotes. --Jomegat (discuss • contribs) 14:44, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
