Not really appropriate for Wikipedia as it is not an article, probably more appropriate for wiki-quote or wiki-source but that's for people on those projects to really decide. Cat-five - talk 10:18, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - This is useful, interesting, and relevant. Note: I'm an occasional-contributor and an often-user, and I'm getting a little tired of the "deletionists" who want to purge everything out of Wikipedia that doesnt' meet their private standards. The whole point of an ONLINE encyclopedia is that there are no limits to what you can add! Stop messing with the community's resource! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnkoetsier (talk • contribs) 16:11, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge -- Merge it with the Apollo 11 article n stuff.
Keep and stubify - Plenty of context meriting its own article. Sfacets 10:59, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete text of speech; instead link-to another wikiproject and discuss/introduce here. Ulmanor 11:14, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - This is very notable and in my opinion a great look at history and the thought processes of those who were going to the moon. Jlam4911 16:02, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
'Keep - notable, there's been two History Channel and/or Science Channel docs about it. Doc Strange 11:51, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge any relevant information to Apollo 11 and move the text of the speech to Wikisource. There's no need to have a separate article for this speech; there's not much to say about it, since it was never given. --Hnsampat 13:23, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It's interesting enough on its own to warrant an article. What's the problem here? 99.246.250.157 13:49, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It adds to the historical record and our understanding of the Moon Landing; the preparation, fears and thoughts. Very educational. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.189.108.123 (talk) 14:23, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Relevant to several topics, interesting, and notable for its unique origin and context. Brain Rodeo 14:35, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Part of mankind's history - SamFlans 14:38, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It is an important historical document and deserves to be in the encyclopedia. It shows the real thought processes of government. EasterBunny31 1:02, 27 October 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.168.80.102 (talk)
Keep Although the article fails to mention it, the existence of this was only made public within the last few years, and it was a surprise to those of us who watched Apollo 11 on TV. Mandsford 15:18, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge partially into Apollo 11, partly to Wikisource. Will ^(talk) 15:41, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as per Hnsampat. The article is certainly of historical interest--if nothing else, its existence is--but, since it wasn't given there is no need for a separate article. Move speech text to Wikisource; merge article prose into Apollo 11. Ourai ^тʃ_с 15:46, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep it's a fascinating part of mankind's history. ---You're My Juliet 15:49, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep it. Lord knows there's enough crap in Wikipedia that's far more deserving of deletion than this. This is actually an interesting historical document. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.13.90.97 (talk) 15:52, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This seems like deliberate backlash from this getting linked to on popular social bookmarking sites such as reddit. I'm tired of articles getting demolished, ruined, or outright deleted when they become popular. This is a bad faith nomination. 75.65.91.142 16:19, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I'm tired of people being so eager to delete things from Wikipedia. Removing (factual) things from an encylopedia is like censoring history. xyroclast 16:39, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a relevant article that I'm sure you'll find very little about on other sites than Wikipedia.
