Marcab Confederacy

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This was previously prodded, but was removed by an IP only hours before the five days were up. Original prod said "Original Research and barely notable bit based almost exclusively on primary materials". Taking it here because of notability concerns. Tavix (talk) 01:37, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep actual topic, sourced, and a reasonable fork of the already lengthy Scientology beliefs and practices and its subarticles. JJL (talk) 02:01, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I would have said merge, but space opera in scientology is too long already. Sufficiently notable within the topic of Scientology. While the article could definitely use more secondary sources, there are 4 already, which is far from being "almost exclusively" based on primary materials. -Neitherday (talk) 02:12, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep: Sufficient third-party non-trivial mentions in reliable sources to meet WP:Notability. Jo7hs2 (talk) 02:24, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep: To merge the articles would make it overly long, and to delete it outright would eliminate a key element of Scientology's cosmology. Regarding sourcing, I agree with Neitherday above. StealthBadger (talk) 03:03, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep:This article features a key belief of modern Scientology and is relevant to recent news and events regarding Scientology. Roxanne Edits (talk) 03:09, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
