 * Keep Article is short but has supplemental information and several good sources; expanded it a little. Topic is reasonably well covered in scientfic literature and may easily be expanded further. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 09:06, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. A bit beyond a DICTDEF, and there is scope for further improvement - this being a charge levied against Jews and early Christians and covered in depth in sources.Icewhiz (talk) 10:38, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Hundreds of sources easily found on Google Books and Scholar, and it wasn't hard for Elmidae and I to start expanding it beyond a definition. Note that WP:DICDEF is a policy on how to write articles, not a notability guideline; WP:BEFORE details the due diligence expected before opening a deletion discussion.

 * Keep. There's sufficient depth in the sources to be a notable term. Kingofaces43 (talk) 15:03, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * keep The first sentence is a bit of a problem since the point is that nobody actually did such a thing, but it's clearly a notable subject unto itself. Mangoe (talk) 16:48, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep -- A perfectly adequate article, though on an odd subject. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:27, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep for all of the reasons mentioned here. This is a perfectly good article on a topic that extends far beyond a dictionary definition.  P Aculeius (talk) 19:32, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. While I see where the nominator is coming from, this is not just a dictionary entry, and nor was it one even before the recent expansion. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:07, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
