X tax

Prod removed a year ago, so not eligiable for re-prod. Not really a speedy candidate. No assertion of notability. No sourced. The linked economist was just deleted as an A7 speedy. So IMHO nothing here really worth keeping. TexasAndroid 17:57, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

X it out: Unsourced, orphaned stub. RGTraynor 18:10, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Destroy - per the above. Unverified. -- Anonymous Dissident^Talk 21:32, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep We need to be sure about what we are talking here. These kind of subjects are not Pokemon-like ones guys.

Tax Planning Under The Flat Tax/X-Tax a paper by americantaxpolicyinstitute.org
Beyond Bush: A Simple Plan to Tax Consumption an article by Business Week
The X Tax in the World Economy by David Bradford, a notable Princeton, Woodrow Wilson School Professor. -- GarbageCollection - ^!Collect 06:10, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Actually, no, one doesn't need economics expertise (the concept about which, as a subscriber to The Economist, I'm chuckling) to identify obscure stubs that lack sources, assertions of notability or text. If you'd like to apply your expertise to expanding the article to something useable, feel free. RGTraynor 12:41, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and Expand - there are enough sources and notability to create a decent article on the topic. There is also a lot of research on VAT taxation that could be interwoven into the article in regard to tax policy effects, criticism, etc. This article is in line with other tax reform proposals in the U.S. such as Competitive Tax Plan, Efficient Taxation of Income, Flat tax, and FairTax.

- I started an expansion. Morphh ^(talk) 13:32, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Nominator changing opinion. The article as it now stands is far from the unsourced stub that I nominated originally. - TexasAndroid 13:49, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
