Jehovah's Witnesses: Controversial Issues

This is very strange. The AfD listing was made by a user who has been contributing to this page but it is incomplete and there is no notice on the article page. Beyond that, it is certainly difficult to make an NPOV article about a controversial topic but that's no reason to delete the whole page. Thatcher131 20:38, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. The page seems very badly named, and it could stand some work to improve it, but I don't know if there's a valid reason to delete it as it could be noteworthy. As for me, I'm not sure which way I'd vote on this.--み使い Mitsukai 21:18, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I would tag it NPOV and let its editors work it out. There seems to be an active discussion. Whomever put it on AfD didn't give a reason. Thatcher131 21:33, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

• I'm sorry, I began this process without properly understanding it. I'm going to try a {{POV check}} on the article to help it get the attention it needs. joshbuddy 21:42, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy keep per original nom. Ordinarily, I'd criticize this as a POV fork, but both this and the JW article are so long and so extensively referenced that merging them would make the resultant article immense. In this case it simply appears to be a matter of branching an article in a reasonable way. ikkyu2 (talk) 22:51, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I've linked this article from Jehovah's Witnesses as a branch article. ikkyu2 (talk) 22:56, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep per ikkyu2. ergot 16:59, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
