*'''Delete''' per [[WP:TNT]]. While it might be possible to create a legitimate article about any sort of "geography-based pride," this is an essay that is poorly written ("A picture perfect family like [the Ewings from ''Dallas''], tied directly to Texas, furthers the Texas superiority stereotype and fuels Texas pride." Seriously?) and uses sources that are tangentially related at best (the "Events" section contains nothing directly related to the crux of the article), with lots of [[WP:SYN|synthesis]]. --<span style="font-family:Book Antiqua">[[User:Kinu|<strong style="color:blue">Kinu</strong>]] <sup>[[User_talk:Kinu|<i style="color: red">t</i>]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:Contributions/Kinu|<i style="color:red">c</i>]]</sub></span> 02:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC) |

*'''Keep''' This article is poor but not poor enough that it has to be nuked. Texas having its own pseudo-national identity is a very well known phenomenon.[[User:*Treker|★Trekker]] ([[User talk:*Treker|talk]]) 19:00, 18 December 2020 (UTC) |

Creative essay fails WP:NOTESSAY, WP:NOTOPINION, and WP:OR. In desperate need of WP:TNT KidAd talk 08:23, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

- Delete/Merge Could be moved to a subsection in a Texas article, I don't see enough discussion in peer-reviewed journals to make it warrant an article. Oaktree b (talk) 15:31, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: fails NOR and SIGCOV but article may be kept if these issues are rectified. The Ace in Spades (talk) 12:27, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per Don't mess with Texas unless you've done a BIG Interweb search. Seriously, folks, at worse this could be merged, but there's certainly lots of sources available, and its okay that not all of them are peer-reviewed. Bearian (talk) 22:13, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
- Delete/TNT I think people of many place are prideful of where they come from, but this essay for a student project, per the creator's userpage, is largely WP:Synthesis combining historical tidbits and things Texans do. Culture of Texas is a possible merge target for some points in the last section but even if the concept of patriotism for a particular state is notable, this needs to be restarted.

While it might be possible to create a legitimate article about any sort of "geography-based pride," this is an essay that is poorly written ("A picture perfect family like [the Ewings from Dallas], tied directly to Texas, furthers the Texas superiority stereotype and fuels Texas pride." Seriously?) and uses sources that are tangentially related at best (the "Events" section contains nothing directly related to the crux of the article), with lots of synthesis. --Kinu t/c 02:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
