WP:NOT#ESSAY. This is an unexplained synthesis of three separate topics which have their own articles, any content from here should go there. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 19:53, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No assertion of notability that this is a stand-alone topic. While it contains some useful information, that would be better used as cites in specific topic pages. This essay is a rehash of its Creative Commons source, a UNESCO document, by User:Saraah GM, a UNESCO employee. — The Hand That Feeds You:^Bite 00:50, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Gee fizz. I really hope that most of this is just copied outright from the UNESCO source, and someone didn't actually put that much original work into the article. No prejudice if someone wants to merge pieces of this into other articles, or even IAR WP:U5 for a while and userfy to give them time to work on it, but this is an essay, and not an encyclopedia article. We do have two articles entitled Truth, Justice, and the American Way, but there's a reason they're comic books, and not an essay that arbitrarily combines the topics of truth, justice, and the American way.

Delete - I've never seen such a large, comprehensible, article that fails to satisfy. However as already noted, as well as essay-like aspects (very evident in the intro paragraph), it doesn't appear to provide information not in the constituent articles. For it to stand it needs to be primarily about how exactly these fields interact. As it is, it is both duplicative and fails NPOV. There must be areas that would enhance the constituent articles, but obviously not suited to an actual merge(s). Nosebagbear (talk) 18:22, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
