The result was delete. I don't think there's a need to maintain attribution, since it was split off originally and then moved back. ansh 666 07:42, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

This is a content fork from Catholic Church and homosexuality. The length of the section and the entire article do not justify spinning this off into its own article. If the section grows too big I would support a spinoff, but do not currently. BrianCUA (talk) 02:46, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Move back to Catholic Church and homosexuality, where this was split from. This is an unnecessary content fork that is best left in the main article. North America1000 04:16, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep – Creation of this article is inline with restructuring of main article. If this article is deleted then the content should not be restored in full as unbalances the main article and gives undue prominence to a minor aspect of the debate. The length of the new article is of a perfectly reasonable size and covers a number of organisations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Contaldo80 (talk • contribs) 07:54, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Note: Contaldo's concern seems to have been addressed to his satisfaction in the main. --BrianCUA (talk) 15:11, 12 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep – If this article was now to be merged back, then that would either result in removal of valuable content, or create a WP:UNDUE problem at the destination. Indeed, I agree with User:Contaldo80. Note: I think a renaming, from current "Organisations that defend the Catholic Church's official teaching on homosexuality", is needed. Maybe rename to "Organisations supporting the Catholic Church's views on homosexuality.", though that too isn't a great title. -- DexterPointy (talk) 12:40, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * delete That Catholic organizations promote Catholic positions is unremarkable, and this is just dead horse beating. Mangoe (talk) 16:53, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete, or revert split or whatever. If it's taking up too much of the main article, it should just be condensed there. It's very listy here (and may have been so there too, I don't remember) - it seems more appropriate to me to fit the "medical" organization's view in where we discuss the church's official position on homosexuality, and the Knights of Columbus's financial contributions to anti-marriage campaigns in where we discuss similar political lobbying by the official body of the church, than to bundle them into an "organizations" section or article of any kind. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 02:29, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge into Catholic Church and homosexuality. All of the content in this nominated article is better relocated to the main article and the articles of each of these organizations. The nominated article is just an expanded list. Newslinger (talk) 04:36, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Vote changed. Newslinger (talk) 03:09, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment As noted above, Contldo's concerns seem to have been addressed. Now we have substantively the same content (minus a few subject headings) living in both places.  This seems unnecessary, and I hold that we should delete the spinoff until the content in the main grows to the point where it becomes needed.  --BrianCUA (talk) 14:46, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Its "Contaldo80" - be more careful in respecting editors user names. I can live with this provided the section does not grow beyond what it currently is and that there are no sub-headings. Contaldo80 (talk) 15:26, 16 July 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
