Essentially, Original research by synthesis some kind of manifesto for an artistic movement that contains no reliable sources to demonstrate its use by any expert source. A prod tag was removed by the author for a reason not based in Wikipedia policy. Although I found two references for this neologism in the literature, it is far from clear to me that those authors and this article are referring to the same ideas and I suggest that the idea doesn't have sufficient notability to remain.

• Comment The article wording is obviously derived from the lead section of the Wikipedia article on Anarchism. As such it has inherited for itself various claims, such as being "a mass social movement (that) has regularly endured fluctuations in popularity" which is true of anarchism, false of anartism. To that extent the article is arguable a WP:CSD G3 hoax? AllyD (talk) 19:00, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy Delete per A7 of the CSD criteria. This so-called movement is not related to the idea of Anartism as explored by Hélène Parmelin, and lacks notability on its own. RDHolland (talk) 11:49, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
