This article is entirely unsourced and reads like an essay. The topic itself does not appear sufficiently notable for its own article. While a merge has been suggested in edit histories, doing so would require the introduction of unsourced and essay-like material into an otherwise non-problematic page. Additionally, a section to this effect already exists at Jan Smuts. The content of the article is not suitable for any page and thus should be deleted.

• Delete Content is already well covered in the main Smuts article and this is a wholly unsourced and one-sided. Nate • (chatter) 21:19, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: An essay that has remained unsourced and relatively unchanged since its creation in 2005. Some of the content is already contained at the main article and as it is unsourced a merge is inadvisable. Surprised it's been around this long.
