Talk:Christianity in Somaliland

An article on something that doesn't exist
(Pinging and  who have redirected this article before.) The editor behind this article asked for a talk page discussion in order to dispute redirects to Somaliland. There is actually some verifiable history in the article, particularly the excavations at Mundus, but that should be covered as an item of history for Heis (town) or Somaliland. Using the presence of a few Christians centuries ago to create an article on how there are no Christians now is odd, to say the least. A non-existent population is not eligible for a Wikipedia article, just like there is no article on the population of penguins in Kansas. I have re-re-restored the redirect and the next step will be to start a deletion discussion. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 17:32, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping, - You lay out the case beautifully, so there's not much more I can add.  Although I don't think the redirect should be deleted.  I think it's appropriate to redirect to that section of that article, where a line or two could cover the topic sufficiently.  Onel 5969  TT me 17:36, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Good point about deletion. It is possible to redirect and ask an admin to protect against reversion of the redirect, which requires a special request. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 17:39, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

The Tablet is an internationally recognized publication. Unless you take it to Wp:RSN and get consensus that it's unreliable, we should not remove it per Wp:STATUSQUO. desmay (talk) 16:54, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
