We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing.

Missionality
Missionality sounds great to me! Jwiley80 17:04, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Wow! "missionality." Did you coin that or have others already used it? I would not be shocked if they have since creation of jargon that sounds like gibberish is a postmodern craze that has unfortunately caught on in the emerging church movement that has coopted "missional." Many editors seem to take a postmodern approach to the tone and style of an encyclopedia, which is a modern genre. I oppose such a merger until "missionality" becomes a commonly used term. Encyclopedias should reflect usage not create it.Will3935 19:51, 23 February 2007 (UTC)


 * On the Wikipedia merge page it states "There are several good reasons to merge a page:


 * 1) Duplicate - There are two or more pages on exactly the same subject. (cite as WP:MM)
 * 2) Overlap - There are two or more pages on related subjects that have a large overlap. Wikipedia is not a dictionary; there does not need to be a separate entry for every concept in the universe. For example, "Flammable" and "Non-flammable" can both be explained in an article on Flammability. (cite as WP:MM)"
 * After reading about merging and moving pages that seem to overlap, I realized that the term Missionality actually accomplished what was recommended.
 * I have used this term, but I am not aware how widely it's been used. Since I am not part of the emerging church movement, nor do I intend to join it, I wanted to set the record straight. Based on the Wikipedia article, I just thought it might be a good direction to head.
 * Also, the reason I didn't join the discussion earlier is that I was in India for two weeks and have been catching up on a lot of things. DaveDV 07:27, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

RE: Re: Alan Hirsch
After looking into it, it appears that the text was a copyright violation (even the introduction text). In that case, it cannot be restored. - Rjd0060 (talk) 13:28, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
