323:, where it was said to be probably a spinout from our NFL article (along with other articles) ie it was originally about NFL etc contests. But it has been altered and expanded over time. Let's assume, for the sake of argument, this page is an essay. Since our sister project Wikiversity includes essays, we could transwiki this article there. Other options include stubification or some other form of rewrite, disambiguation (since this is an ambiguous expression), or redirection to oral interpretation. A further option to consider is a selective merge to National Forensics League (with a certain amount of rewriting). It was however said at the previous AfD that the NFL contests were independently notable with a considerable body of sources offered in support of that. I have no idea what the best course of action is here. The overall impression that I have is of a gigantic train wreck.
319:"rules" given might have been from one or more particular undisclosed contest or contests. The oldest revisions of this very old article (circa 2005 and 2006) contain references to the National Forensics League, and to rules imposed by "states" (are there state forensic leagues? I don't know). This article has a previous AfD nomination at

So the present page name is ambiguous, and "oral interpretation of prose" would be better for the broader topic (whereas specific contests do use "prose interpretation" as their name). There is a book called
318:
which covers the oral interpretation of both prose and poetry, though the level of coverage indicates that the oral interpretation of prose (in a broad sense) is notable in its own right. That however does not deal with "essay". I don't know if this is an essay. For all I know all or some of the
