Completing a nomination by 24.60.163.16, who called this article part of "a set of nonsense Eckankar-cruft." CanadianCaesar 23:24, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep A religious figure is, in and of himself or herself, notable and Wikipedic.  Consider that Xenu became a featured article.  CanadianCaesar 23:24, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
 * And, this is one of those articles where the Google test doesn't apply. The religion also has an article.  CanadianCaesar 23:28, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per CanadianCaesar. Flowerparty talk 01:12, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not even remotely notable. Nandesuka 01:51, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep One of the major religious figures of the religion Eckankar.  A religion without it's major figures is worthless.  Think about Christianity without Jesus, or Judaism without Abraham. Werty8472 July, 24, 2005.
 * Keep, although that Eckankar opening paragraph's use of ext. links tests the border between citation and advertising.--DNicholls 04:38, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete nonsense Eckankar-cruft. Klonimus 05:51, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * What if I called Jesus walking on water "nonsense"? What if I called the burning bush nonsense?  What if I VfD'd Xenu as nonsense?  It's a religion.  The word "nonsense" shouldn't be used and "cruft" can't be applied.  CanadianCaesar 06:13, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete advertising. JamesBurns 06:41, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Save If you would take the time to notice, there is no advertisement on the ECK master pages. Just because the religion page itself has external links is no reason to VfD everything related to it.
