Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Religion of India: The Sociology of Hinduism and Budhism (book)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was ambiguous. While there was a majority decision to delete the current version, there was a promise to improve the article which influenced subsequent votes. I am going to exercise my discretion and call this one a keep for now and mark it with a "cleanup" tag. If not substantially improved in a reasonable amount of time, it may become appropriate to renominate the article for deletion. (The pagemove to fix the spelling error would also be a good idea.)

  • Delete, no redirect. I can't imagine anyone typing out the full name of that book. Megan1967 04:32, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Especially since it is misspelled. Buddhism. -- Jmabel | Talk 07:53, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete no redirect, as per Megan1967 and Jmabel. However, perhaps merge some info. I may get around to it depending on time and motivation today. If someone else does it first, all the better. Interestingly, no merge is needed; it seems that this article is entirely extracted (with new, disimproved headings!) from the existing article. HyperZonktalk 16:58, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)
  • Move and keep. This is fairly well written and much longer then a stub. It is a subarticle from Max Weber, which is fairly long (and Featured, btw), so this article was created for eventuall expantion of the Max Weber article, for the purpose of providing more information to the reader interested in this area of Weber research - a purpose it already does well, considering additional information available in this subarticle (like the Hinduism link/see also template). Of course, if the title is mispelled, I will move it to a proper name later when I can login from my normal comp. Update: yes, that was me. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 00:48, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Per Piotrus, no problem keeping (at corrected name) if he promises to expand. -- Jmabel | Talk
