Wikipedia is not a dictionary. While some sources and some people have mentioned the term, it is not a meaningful concept that has attracted sustained and substantial coverage. The existence of this article is completely redundant, as there is already Great power, Superpower and Hegemony. The existence of this article dilutes Wikipedia editor efforts and reduces the quality of the multiple existing articles on overlapping subjects. Thenightaway (talk) 19:58, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

- I feel like this could very effectively be merged somewhere. BD2412 T 01:04, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - lack of significant, in-depth coverage in the IR literature. I'd also be OK with just a redirect somewhere. Neutralitytalk 17:12, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

- Delete: Agree with nom and Neutrality. I'm open to hearing a redirect target, but I'm not sure what makes sense here. User:Let'srun 23:10, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
