Proposed deletion of Refulgence


The article Refulgence has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Unsourced description of use of this single word in one context, the Bible. No evidence of notability: it's a word, it has several meanings (OED gives "The quality or fact of being refulgent; brilliance, radiance, lustrousness; splendour, glory; (occas.) an instance of this."), no scope for an encyclopedia article.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.


 * A better explanation of why an article on refulgence is not acceptable is that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. There are already articles on refulgence and refulgent at Wiktionary. You might want to see if your content could be added there. Note, though, that it is meaningless to quote the Old or New Testament as a source for a word unless you say which translation you are using. The English word "refulgence" certainly does not appear in the original Hebrew or Greek texts.--Srleffler (talk) 02:23, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
