:({{Find sources|Abstract detail}})

A literary term that does not seem to be an actual widespread literary term. This particular article reads like an essay, which alone would not be a unfixable problem. However, I can find no sources that actually indicate that this term is a common literary term. Searching both gbooks and gscholar gives me nothing on this concept under this name. Even the "A Glossary of Literay Terms" that is used as a reference makes no mention of this phrase, and has no entry for it. Most of this article is instead just paraphrased from their entry on "concrete and abstract". It would appear that this article is merely OR that the page creator derived from that entry, rather than any sort of established concept. Rorshacma (talk) 22:19, 17 September 2012 (UTC)

• Merge into abstract object, which is much the same topic. Note that this is not OR because, as the nomination explains, the content is based upon a particular source: [http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=SUEtEa9nUWQC&pg=PA60#v=onepage&q&f=false concrete and abstract].

:*Comment I meant it was OR more in the sense that they took the information from the Concrete and Abstract entry, and created their own literary term from it. The information may be based on a reliable source, but taking that information and then deriving their own literary term, that is not mentioned anywhere, seemed like it would be considered OR, as WP:SYNTH. I personally don't like the idea of keeping what appears to be a made up term around, even it is just as a redirect. The "A Glossary of Literary Terms" entry should definitely be added to the abstract object article as a source, though. Rorshacma (talk) 16:23, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
