Accidentally published work on a new article Jk nair (talk) 02:15, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Definite keep. This is basically the Indian equivalent of The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, well documented on Wikipedia. I also found multiple examples of full coverage on the movement in reliable sources likes Times of India, India Times and India Today. The article should stay with a "please help" banner asking for more references, but significant sources are definitely available. VanEman (talk) 03:40, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. I agree with VanEman; the subject of this article is definitely of good contemporary relevance, and hence, this article should, ideally, stay. However, what got published yesterday was accidental, and was a premature, "work-in-progress" version of the article. What was supposed to be published into a "user work-space" as a "draft" version, got accidentally published into the public Wikipedia space. A better, more detailed version is in the works, and is being reviewed by more competent individuals, and will be published as soon as this accidental article gets deleted. I am the author of the article that this delete request is for, and I am the author of the replacement article that will be published as soon as this wrong version is deleted. The only thing that is holding me from publishing the updated article is the deletion of this wrong version. Thanks for your understanding and patience - JK Nair. —Preceding undated comment added 17:17, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep The article has been overhauled, cleaned up, and now has the correct title "Dinkoism". Thanks to everyone that helped.  The article that is being discussed for deletion here is "Dinkoist Religion".  Currently it redirects to Dinkoism, which is the correct expected behavior.  Now this article is a definite Keep.

 * Speedy userfy, the nominator is the sole significant author of the article so this falls under WP:G7. — Nizolan  (talk) 04:50, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Changing to Keep as the article has been overhauled. — Nizolan  (talk) 02:25, 15 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete per G7. Userspace version exits at User:Jk nair/Dinkan Religion and was updated more recently, so no need for userification. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 09:39, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Definite keep. Numerous references, many followers. Article was overgrown with unsupported material which has been mostly chopped; references added. Numerous in-depth references here and here and here and here and here.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 18:56, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable and sources. Perhaps requires trimming, but not deletion-worthy. DaltonCastle (talk) 00:05, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, notably and well-sourced. Accidentally publishing to mainspace isn't a reason to delete, since pretty much every article on Wikipedia can be considered in-progress. clpo13(talk) 15:57, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Is there any reason why -- during the middle of a deletion discussion -- with the article already improved -- WHY was the page moved to non-article-space?--Tomwsulcer (talk) 18:37, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment This article initially went through some confused states involving names, content, delete requests, redirects, etc. However, as of now, it has been improved and stabilized under the proper name "Dinkoism." The article that is being discussed here for deletion is "Dinkoist Religion". Currently it redirects to Dinkoism, which is the correct expected behavior. Hopefully, both of these stay, and will receive regular updates.  I myself have many more details to be added to the current version.  Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for bearing with everyone who has contributed. Jk nair (talk) 04:18, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
