Religious forums[edit]

I'm not sure that this subject is really meaningful. Religious forums are for religion, gardening forums are for gardening, sports forums are for sports. Do we need an article to tell us this? --LeeHunter 01:58, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • A glorified dicdef.
    • Is that all?
  • No. It also asks questions and answers them.
    • So what should we do?
  • Delete it. -R. fiend 03:00, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, un-encyclopaedic, dictionary definition. Megan1967 05:22, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, un-encyclopedic. Original research/obvious. This article was created by User:t3gah, who also created List of religious forums, also up for deletion.
  • Speedy delete, falls under the new rule that articles that don't tell anything more than what can be reasonably known from the title can be deleted. 131.211.210.157 12:56, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep. I agree with those who say delete, but what about the other people who want to know what a religious forum is? Scott Gall 00:23, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • You agree with those voting delete, but you're voting keep? Um, okay. Anyway, those who can't figure out that a religious forum is a forum dealing with religion probably can't expect to get much use out of an encyclopedia. -R. fiend 06:47, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not obvious how this can become a useful article. Currently a dicdef, but then most of the content has been removed. I'm a bit uneasy about this, it seems to me that this is not improving the article at all, IMO the result is even more deletable than the original was. So I'll base my vote on what I think was the best version, but it's still a delete. Andrewa 23:44, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Come on. If this is kept, can I create motorcycle forums or perhaps forums with a spam section? humblefool® 23:51, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as un-encyclopedic and unlikely to become so.  — Saxifrage | ☎ 01:18, Feb 3, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, of course. Although should be Religious forum—this should be a redirect, if at all. DialUp 06:26, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)
    • I agree that, if kept, this should redir to singular. —msh210 01:17, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
