Biblical Studies/Christianity/Christianity and the world's religions

 * Keep - Is there really any discussion page for SD, nothing has ever been discussed on the candidates listing page. You Kernigh have tagged Biblical Studies/Christianity/Christianity and the world's religions for SD. What about the other 19 blank pages on the Main page outline? The outline did not originate with me, but I completed Chapter 1 as I had extra time from working on the Appendix. Christianity took 2000 years to develop and this hefty overview, might take a while. The "no wiki page for this" was just some digital gladiator taking potshots at Christianity, never to return. How do you explain such a random action? &#45; Athrash | T a l k 05:42, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
 * You deleted the only part of the outline that could be construed as comparative religion, which was the suggestion of another driveby donor. I will try to rename Chapter 7, so the three remaining sub pages make sense. I will stub every other page, it just makes a big watchlist since I am the only one contributing consistently and evidently will have to answer for every anonymous hit. Can you name one new user? If the facts are wrong then change them. &#45; Athrash | T a l k 13:20, 14 January 2006 (UTC)


 * BTW Looks like there is no vote tally on SD. One vote to Keep and assuming Deleted is Delete (after the fact) the vote is tied and in most democracies that brings in a bureaucrat. &#45; Athrash | T a l k 13:29, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I am mistaken, nothing was deleted except the old useless content, carry on, what was this about anyway. I assume someone could restart the page in question, if they so desired. I just previewed a stub template there, but I had the thought to change Chapter 7 title to Comparative Religion and remove Biblical Studies/Christianity/Christianity and the world's religions leaving the three religions listed to compare. &#45; Athrash | T a l k 02:19, 15 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment - Do you have any plans to add the content in the relatively near future? If so, thats fine.  If not, it probably should be deleted.  At any rate, it ought to follow the same naming convention as the rest of the book.


 * On a side note, the entire Christianity book seems to have major POV issues. It treats a lot of issues as matters of fact rather than being things Christians believed.  Not surprising given the topic, but it needs major cleanup.  --Gabe Sechan 07:05, 14 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Deleted but without prejudice. The text in the history looks like new user experiments and blanking, so it is otherwise not worth keeping.  If a serious NPOV module was to be started about this topic as the name of this module suggests, I don't see a legitimate reason to delete it.  As far as the Christianity Wikibook in general is concerned, that is a huge tarball of a mess in some ways, and a bunch of new users who otherwise are not familiar with Wikibooks or Wikimedia projects in general have been working quietly on this Wikibook as almost an entirely separate project unto itself.  I wander over and occasionally see what is going on, and there do seem to be some messes that come up every now and again as evidenced by repeated VfD about it here.  I support in broad general terms a Christian Wikibook describing the culture, history, and philosophies of this religious movement, as long as it maintains NPOV focus and does not evangelize in a soapbox fashion.  --Rob Horning 08:03, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
