The result of the debate was Delete - Violates WP:OR. Article has been userified though... --++Lar: t/c 14:49, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Term gets 567 GHits, and many of those appear to be describing something much different than the core concept of this article. Article seems to be more of an essay than anything else; the majority of it is taken up by an over-elaborate "How it works" example. The remainder is two sentences and a list of 'mediums that allow people to interact', a list which one might suspect exists less to benefit a reader who might not be able to construct such a list themselves and more to allow the external links used as "examples". -- Antaeus Feldspar 19:36, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per WP:OR, WP:NEO and redirect to Unseen University for the heck of it. Sandstein 20:54, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, Redirect to Royal Society, which was known as the Invisible College. Seems more likely (to me) that a search for "invisible university" would more likely be aiming at "invisible college" than "unseen university" (the latter being a joke on the former anyway). — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 16:49, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- AUTHOR NOTE - As per Antaeus Feldspar's suggestion on my talk page, I am working on an article on the subject of peak learning, of which the invisible university concept is one theme. As such, I will be moving the "invisible university" article to my userspace as User:SpecOp_Macavity/Invisible_university for reference as I work on the peak learning article, which can be seen in progress here: Peak Learning (WIP).
